An office nurse plans to vaccinate a client against HPV. This is an example of which of the following kinds of prevention?

A) Pectoralis major tear: A tear of the pectoralis major muscle would likely cause pain and weakness, particularly in activities involving pushing or lifting. While it may affect shoulder movements, it is less likely to specifically impair the ability to reach behind the back and touch the shoulder blade compared to rotator cuff issues.
B) Arthritis: Arthritis, particularly osteoarthritis, can cause decreased range of motion and pain in the shoulder joint. However, the specific movement described—placing one hand behind the back to touch the shoulder blade—is most commonly affected by issues with the rotator cuff rather than arthritis alone.
C) Rotator Cuff Tendinitis: Rotator cuff tendinitis is a common cause of shoulder pain and decreased range of motion, particularly affecting movements that require lifting the arm or reaching behind the back. Tendinitis in the rotator cuff can lead to pain and difficulty performing the movement described due to inflammation and impingement of the tendons.
D) Gout: Gout is a type of arthritis caused by the accumulation of uric acid crystals in the joints, often affecting the big toe but can affect other joints. While it can cause joint pain and inflammation, it is less likely to specifically impair the shoulder movement described compared to rotator cuff tendinitis.

A) 2: A muscle strength grade of 2 indicates that the muscle can move when gravity is eliminated, such as when the limb is supported. However, it does not have enough strength to move against gravity. This grade is not appropriate for the client described, as they can move both lower legs against gravity.
B) 3: A muscle strength grade of 3 means that the muscle can move the joint against gravity but without any additional resistance. This is less than the client’s described ability, as they can move their legs against some resistance.
C) 4: A muscle strength grade of 4 indicates that the muscle can move against gravity and moderate resistance. This matches the client’s ability to actively move both lower legs against gravity and some resistance, making it the correct documentation of their muscle strength.
D) 5: A muscle strength grade of 5 indicates normal muscle strength, where the muscle can move against gravity and full resistance without any signs of fatigue. Since the client is described as moving against some resistance but not full resistance, a grade of 5 would overestimate their current muscle strength.
