The nurse is teaching a client about possible adverse reactions that can occur with tetracyclines.
The nurse determines that the teaching was successful when the client identifies which of the following?

Choice A rationale:

Fertility problems are one of the long-term adverse reactions that may occur with antineoplastic therapy. Some chemotherapy drugs can impact fertility in both males and females, either temporarily or permanently. It's important to discuss these potential effects with patients before starting treatment, as it may influence their decisions about family planning.

Choice B rationale:

Thrombocytopenia is not a long-term adverse reaction but a potential short-term side effect of antineoplastic therapy. Thrombocytopenia is a condition characterized by a low platelet count and can lead to bleeding problems.

Choice C rationale:

Leukopenia is not a long-term adverse reaction but rather a potential short-term side effect of antineoplastic therapy. Leukopenia refers to a decrease in white blood cell count and can increase the risk of infections.

Choice D rationale:

Stomatitis is not typically considered a long-term adverse reaction to antineoplastic therapy. Stomatitis is a common side effect of chemotherapy that involves inflammation of the mucous membranes in the mouth, and it usually occurs during treatment rather than persisting as a long-term effect.

Choice A rationale:

Naturally acquired active immunity occurs when an individual is exposed to a disease-causing agent for the first time and develops immunity through their immune response. In this case, the client is exposed to chickenpox for the first time, and the immune system will produce antibodies to provide future protection.

Choice B rationale:

Administration of a vaccine (varicella vaccine) is an example of artificially acquired active immunity. The client's immune system responds to the weakened or inactivated pathogen in the vaccine to produce immunity. This choice does not represent naturally acquired immunity.

Choice C rationale:

Similar to choice B, administration of the influenza vaccine is an example of artificially acquired active immunity. The vaccine contains inactivated influenza virus components, prompting the individual's immune system to develop immunity.

Choice D rationale:

Administration of the rubella vaccine is another example of artificially acquired active immunity. The vaccine stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies against rubella, but this is not an example of naturally acquired immunity.
