A nurse manager on a labor and delivery unit is discussing care of clients who have vaginal bleeding due to placenta previa with a newly licensed nurse. Which of the following statements should the nurse manager make?

Choice A rationale:

Survivors of sexual assault can exhibit a wide range of psychological symptoms, and their experiences may vary significantly. There is no universal pattern of symptoms that applies to all survivors.

Choice B rationale:

Psychotherapy, such as trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy, has been shown to be effective in helping survivors of sexual assault cope with and heal from their experiences.

Choice C rationale:

Rationale:

It is important to emphasize that sexual assault survivors often know the perpetrator, as this information dispels the myth that most assaults are committed by strangers.

Education should provide accurate and evidence-based information to address misconceptions.

Choice D rationale:

Survivors of sexual assault come from diverse backgrounds and living situations, and their marital status or residence in metropolitan areas is not universally applicable.

Choice A rationale:

Using a disposable adhesive probe when measuring the client's SaO2 is not an intervention that can reduce the exposure of the client to latex, because adhesive probes may contain latex and cause skin reactions. A better option would be to use a non-adhesive probe or a probe cover that is latex-free.

Choice B rationale:

Rationale: Latex sensitivity or allergy can lead to adverse reactions when exposed to latex- containing products, such as blood pressure cuffs. Wrapping the blood pressure cuff in a stockinette helps minimize direct contact between the cuff and the client's skin.

Choice C rationale:

Silicone products are usually considered safe for individuals with latex sensitivity because silicone is a different material. Silicone products are generally safe for clients who are sensitive to latex, unless they have a separate allergy to silicone.

Choice D rationale:

Cleaning vial stoppers for 15 seconds before using them to withdraw-medications for the client is not an intervention that can reduce the exposure of the client to latex, because vial stoppers may be made of latex or rubber and cleaning them does not remove the allergen. A better option would be to use vials that have latex-free stoppers or to avoid puncturing the stoppers with needles.
