Inflammation is ultimately needed to:

A. A room within view of the nurses' station does not provide the necessary isolation for a client with active tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is a contagious airborne disease, and isolation in a room with appropriate ventilation is essential.

B. A room with another nonsurgical client is not appropriate for a patient with active tuberculosis, as it could lead to the spread of the infection to another patient. Isolation in a room designed to prevent airborne transmission is necessary.

C. A room with air exhaust directly to the outdoor environment is the most appropriate choice. Tuberculosis is transmitted through airborne particles, so the client should be placed in a negative pressure room with exhaust ventilation that directs the air outside to prevent the spread of the infection.

D. A room in the ICU is not necessary unless the client requires intensive care. The primary concern is ensuring appropriate isolation, which can be achieved in a standard room with the proper ventilation, rather than an ICU setting.

A. Atherosclerosis, the buildup of fatty plaques in the arteries, is a common cause of death in patients with progeria. These patients experience accelerated aging, which leads to early development of cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, which contributes to their early mortality.

B. Psychosis is not typically associated with progeria. The condition primarily affects physical aging processes rather than causing psychiatric symptoms like psychosis.

C. While rapid aging is the hallmark of progeria, it is not the direct cause of death. Instead, it leads to the development of age-related diseases like cardiovascular issues, which are the main contributors to mortality.

D. Scleroderma is a condition involving the hardening of the skin and connective tissues, but it is not a direct cause of death in progeria. The primary cause of death is related to cardiovascular complications such as atherosclerosis.
