A The condom is worn by the man and does not stay in the vagina for prolonged
periods of time.
B Spermicides dissolve slowly, but do not stay in the vagina for prolonged periods
of time.
C The cervical cap may increase the risk of toxic shock syndrome, because it may
be left in the vagina for a prolonged period.
D Norplant is a systemic contractive that is implanted into the arm. Therefore, there
is no risk for toxic shock due to devices left in the vagina for prolonged periods
of time.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback
A Maintaining growth and development is a major concern for the child with HIV
infection. Frequent monitoring for failure to thrive, neurologic deterioration, or
developmental delay is important for HIV-infected infants and children.
B Nutrition, which contributes to a child's growth, is a nursing concern; however,
it is not necessary for family members to bring food to the child.
C Although an assessment of parental strengths and weaknesses is important, it
will be imperative for health care providers to focus on the parental strengths,
not weaknesses. This is not as important as the frequent assessment of the child's
growth and development.
D Rest is a nursing concern, but it is not as high a priority as maintaining growth
and development. Rest periods twice a day for 2 to 3 hours may not be
appropriate.
