Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Inhaling slowly while depressing the medication canister fully indicates the client appropriately understood the teaching session. The other statements indicate the need for further education.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

The client stating the need to pinch off one side of the nose when spraying into the other side indicates appropriate understanding of the teaching session. The client would not gargle warm water prior to using a nasal spray. Keeping the head titled back during the spraying will cause the medication to run down the back of the throat. The client needs to inhale with the mouth closed prior to spraying, not take a deep breath and blow all the air out before spraying.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.
