Which of the following clinical manifestations is a common symptom of primary immunodeficiency disorders?

Explanation: The correct answer is c. Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is characterized by a deficiency or absence of B cells, leading to a reduced ability to produce antibodies and an increased susceptibility to infections.

Incorrect choices:

a. DiGeorge syndrome is a disorder caused by a genetic defect resulting in the underdevelopment of the thymus and parathyroid glands, leading to T cell deficiency.

b. Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is a severe form of immunodeficiency that affects both B and T cells, leading to a complete absence or dysfunction of the immune system.

d. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is a rare X-linked genetic disorder characterized by a triad of symptoms, including eczema, low platelet count, and immunodeficiency. It primarily affects T cells and platelets, not B cells.

Explanation: The correct answer is c. Limit visitors to family members only. Clients with immunodeficiency disorders are at increased risk of infections, and limiting visitors to family members only can help reduce the risk of exposure to infectious agents. It is essential to create a controlled and safe environment for these clients.

Incorrect choices:

a. Encouraging the client to interact with other clients in the unit can increase the risk of exposure to infections and is not appropriate for someone with immunodeficiency.

b. Live vaccines contain weakened pathogens and are contraindicated for clients with immunodeficiency disorders, as they can cause serious infections in this population.

d. Providing the client with a private room with negative pressure is not necessary for every client with immunodeficiency disorder. Negative pressure rooms are used for clients with specific airborne infectious diseases, and the decision to use such rooms is based on the specific circumstances of each client.
