A nurse is monitoring a client's arterial pulses. The nurse should check for a dorsalis pedis pulse in which of the following locations? (You will find hot spots to select in the artwork below. Select only the hot spot that corresponds to your answer.)

Varicella zoster is highly contagious, and airborne precautions should be implemented. Assigning the client to a negative pressure airflow room helps prevent the spread of the virus to others by containing and filtering the air within the room.

In addition to airborne precautions, contact precautions should also be implemented. This includes using gloves and gowns when providing care to the client to minimize direct contact with infectious materials.

The other options listed are not appropriate interventions for a client with varicella zoster: While it is important to minimize close contact with an infectious client, varicella zoster is

primarily transmitted through airborne droplets. Visitors should follow the appropriate precautions, such as wearing masks and adhering to hand hygiene, rather than just maintaining a certain distance.

Aspirin should not be given to clients with varicella zoster, especially children, due to the risk of developing Reye's syndrome. Reye's syndrome is a rare but serious condition that can cause swelling in the liver and brain. Acetaminophen (paracetamol) is typically recommended for managing fever in clients with varicella zoster.

The correct answer is B. Notify the charge nurse about the situation. Informed consent is when a healthcare provider explains a medical treatment to a patient before the patient agrees to it. The patient has the right to know their state of health, the diagnosis, and the treatments available, and to choose any alternative. The nurse is responsible for obtaining consent when initiating care, and reviewing consent before providing the care ordered by another health care professional. If the patient does not understand why the procedure is necessary, the nurse should notify the charge nurse or the physician who ordered the procedure, so that they can provide more information and answer any questions.

The nurse should not ask the client to sign the consent form anyway (A), as this would violate the patient's right to autonomy and self-determination.

The nurse should not remind the client about the specifics of the procedure (C) or explain to the client that the procedure will help treat his diagnosis (D), as these are not within the nurse's scope of practice and may be considered as giving medical advice.
