Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Included are items such as stethoscope, BP apparatus, and other assessment tools used exclusively for infected client on contact isolation. Medication administration records should never be brought into the client's room. The sign reviewing the kind of isolation should be on the outside of the door to alert the staff of what is needed to enter.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Urinary specific gravity of 1.005 is most likely for a client who is on a diuretic. A client who is on a diuretic voids large amounts of urine with a low urinary specific gravity of below 1.010 . Such values may also be seen in diabetes insipidus. A value of 1.010 or 1.020 suggests normal values for specific gravity of urine. A value of 1.030 indicates a high urinary specific gravity, which is seen in either dehydration or in cases of fluid retention (e.g., edema).

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.
