What medication class can decrease tissue inflammation but delay bone healing?

Choice A reason: Using standard precautions is a practice that is recommended to prevent HIV transmission, because it is a set of guidelines that apply to all clients, regardless of their infection status, and that aim to prevent the exposure to blood, body fluids, or other potentially infectious materials. Standard precautions include hand hygiene, use of personal protective equipment, safe handling and disposal of sharps, environmental cleaning, and respiratory hygiene.

Choice B reason: Double gloving is not a practice that is recommended to prevent HIV transmission, because it is not proven to be more effective or safer than single gloving. Double gloving is a technique that involves wearing two pairs of gloves, one over the other, which may provide some extra protection against needlestick injuries or glove punctures, but may also reduce the tactile sensitivity, dexterity, or comfort of the wearer. Double gloving is not a routine practice, but rather an option for certain situations, such as highrisk procedures, long surgeries, or known HIVpositive clients.

Choice C reason: Applying hand sanitizer to gloves during cares is not a practice that is recommended to prevent HIV transmission, because it is not appropriate or hygienic. Applying hand sanitizer to gloves during cares is a practice that can damage the integrity and effectiveness of the gloves, as the alcohol or other chemicals can degrade the material, cause holes, or reduce the fit of the gloves. Applying hand sanitizer to gloves during cares can also create a false sense of security, as the gloves may still be contaminated or ineffective. Hand sanitizer should be applied to the hands before and after wearing gloves, not to the gloves themselves.

Choice D reason: Wearing a mask within three feet of the client is not a practice that is recommended to prevent HIV transmission, because it is not necessary or relevant. Wearing a mask within three feet of the client is a practice that is part of the droplet precautions, which are used to prevent the transmission of infections that are spread by large respiratory droplets, such as influenza, pertussis, or meningitis. HIV is not transmitted by respiratory droplets, but rather by sexual contact, blood, or other body fluids. Wearing a mask within three feet of the client may not provide any protection against HIV, and may also cause stigma or discrimination.

Choice A reason: This is an incorrect answer because Medicare is a federal health insurance program that covers certain groups of people, such as the elderly, the disabled, and the lowincome. Medicare does not publish the National Patient Safety Goals, but it does have its own quality and safety standards that health care providers must meet to receive reimbursement.

Choice B reason: This is an incorrect answer because the American Nurses Association (ANA) is a professional organization that represents the interests of registered nurses in the United States. The ANA does not publish the National Patient Safety Goals, but it does have its own code of ethics, standards of practice, and policies that guide nursing practice and promote quality and safety.

Choice C reason: This is the correct answer because the Joint Commission is an independent, nonprofit organization that accredits and certifies more than 22,000 health care organizations and programs in the United States. The Joint Commission publishes the National Patient Safety Goals, which are specific and measurable goals that address the most critical patient safety issues in health care. The Joint Commission updates the goals annually based on the latest evidence and expert input.

Choice D reason: This is an incorrect answer because the Institute of Medicine (IOM) is a division of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, which is a private, nonprofit organization that provides independent, objective, and authoritative advice to inform policy and practice. The IOM does not publish the National Patient Safety Goals, but it does conduct research and issue reports on various topics related to health and health care, including quality and safety.
