A nurse is admitting a pediatric client to the unit who has leukemia. Which client should the nurse place in the same room with this child?

A child who is recovering from nasopharyngitis

A child who has nephrotic syndrome

A child who has gastroenteritis

A child who has rheumatic fever

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

A. A child recovering from nasopharyngitis could still be contagious, and since children with leukemia have compromised immune systems, they are at higher risk of infections.

B. A child with nephrotic syndrome, although potentially needing special care, does not pose the same infection risk as a child recovering from an infectious disease. Therefore, they are a more suitable roommate for a child with leukemia.

C. A child with gastroenteritis may still be infectious and could expose the child with leukemia to gastrointestinal pathogens.

D. A child with rheumatic fever does not have a contagious illness, but the specific needs of the child with leukemia and the potential for complications from infections make it less ideal compared to a non-infectious condition like nephrotic syndrome.
