Answer to Question 1

3
Risk factors for latex allergy include a history of allergies, for example, food allergies or contact dermatitis (eczema). Appendicitis and bronchitis do not increase the client's risk of a latex allergy. The client's not wearing wool clothing does not increase the client's risk of a latex allergy.

Answer to Question 2

3
The first priority is to maintain adequate oxygenation. The next diagnoses in priority would be risk for ineffective respiratory function. Activity intolerance would be the third diagnosis. Anxiety would be the last diagnosis in order of priority.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
