A nurse is preparing to administer clindamycin 300 mg by intermittent IV bolus over 30 min to a client who has a staphylococcal infection.
Available is clindamycin 900 mg in 50 mL. How many mL/hr should the nurse set the IV pump to? (Round to the nearest whole number, use a leading zero if it applies, do not use a trailing zero)

Choice A rationale:
Flu-like symptoms: These are common during the early stages of HIV infection, often within 2-4 weeks after exposure to the virus. They are a result of the body's immune system responding to the virus. Symptoms can include:
Fever Fatigue

Muscle aches

Headache Sore throat

Rash

Swollen lymph nodes
Night sweats: These are also common in early HIV infection and can be caused by the body's attempts to fight off the virus or by inflammation. They can also be a side effect of some HIV medications.

Choice B rationale:
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS): This is a type of cancer that is associated with HIV infection. It is caused by a virus called Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). KS often appears as purple or red lesions on the skin or in the mouth. It can also affect other organs, such as the lungs and lymph nodes. However, it's not a common initial symptom of HIV infection. It usually develops in later stages of HIV when the immune system is severely weakened.

Choice C rationale:
Fungal and bacterial infections: People with HIV are more susceptible to infections because the virus weakens their immune system. However, fungal and bacterial infections are not typically among the initial symptoms of HIV infection. They usually occur in later stages of the disease when the immune system is more compromised.

Choice D rationale:
Pneumocystis lung infection (PCP): This is a serious lung infection that is caused by a fungus called Pneumocystis jirovecii. It is a common opportunistic infection in people with HIV, but it is not typically an initial symptom. It usually develops in later stages of HIV when the CD4 count (a measure of immune system health) is very low.

Choice A rationale:
A high-purine diet is not recommended for clients with gout. Purines are substances found in certain foods, such as red meat, organ meats, seafood, and beer. When the body breaks down purines, it produces uric acid. Uric acid is a waste product that can build up in the blood and cause gout attacks.
Choice B rationale:
Aspirin is not typically recommended for clients with gout. In fact, aspirin can sometimes worsen gout symptoms by increasing uric acid levels in the blood.
Choice C rationale:
Limiting alcohol intake is a key part of the treatment regimen for gout. Alcohol can increase uric acid levels in the blood and trigger gout attacks.
Choice D rationale:
Limiting fluid intake is not recommended for clients with gout. In fact, it is important for clients with gout to stay well- hydrated to help flush uric acid out of the body.
