Which of the following is both the standard treatment and also a potential cure for aplastic anemia?

A. The patient experiences a decrease in hemoglobin S. Hydroxyurea does not decrease hemoglobin S levels directly; it works by increasing fetal hemoglobin (Hgb F) levels.
B. The patient experiences dehydration due to diuresis. This is not an indication that Hydroxyurea is working; it is a potential side effect that should be monitored.
C. The patient experiences an increase in fetal hemoglobin (Hbg F). Hydroxyurea works by increasing the levels of fetal hemoglobin, which reduces the sickling of red blood cells.
D. The patient needs fewer blood transfusions. Successful treatment with Hydroxyurea should reduce the frequency of vaso-occlusive crises and the need for blood transfusions.
E. The patient experiences diuresis. This is not an indicator of the medication's effectiveness; it is a potential side effect.

A. Remind the client that gonorrhea is a virus, therefore it cannot be cured. Gonorrhea is a bacterial infection caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae and can be treated with antibiotics.
B. Instruct the client about preventing reinfection by using a diaphragm. While diaphragms can be a method of contraception, they are not effective at preventing sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea.
C. Check for the presence of a primary lesion or chancre. Primary lesions or chancres are associated with syphilis, not gonorrhea.
D. Obtain information about the client's recent sexual partners. It is important to obtain information about recent sexual partners to notify them and prevent the spread of the infection.
