Upon auscultation of a client's lung sounds, the nurse notices a high-pitched wheezing sound. What condition is the likely cause of this sound?

A. A superficial partial thickness burn affects only the outermost layer of skin (epidermis) and causes redness and pain, but it doesn't usually cause blisters.

B. A full-thickness burn involves the destruction of all layers of the skin, including the epidermis, dermis, and sometimes underlying tissue. This type of burn typically causes a white or charred appearance and may not be painful due to nerve damage.

C. Dermal thickness burn is not a standard classification of burn depth. Burns are typically classified into superficial, partial-thickness, and full-thickness categories.

D. A deep partial-thickness burn involves damage to both the epidermis and dermis, causing redness, swelling, and blistering. This is the most likely classification for a sunburn with redness and blistering.

A. A room within view of the nurses' station does not provide the necessary isolation for a client with active tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is a contagious airborne disease, and isolation in a room with appropriate ventilation is essential.

B. A room with another nonsurgical client is not appropriate for a patient with active tuberculosis, as it could lead to the spread of the infection to another patient. Isolation in a room designed to prevent airborne transmission is necessary.

C. A room with air exhaust directly to the outdoor environment is the most appropriate choice. Tuberculosis is transmitted through airborne particles, so the client should be placed in a negative pressure room with exhaust ventilation that directs the air outside to prevent the spread of the infection.

D. A room in the ICU is not necessary unless the client requires intensive care. The primary concern is ensuring appropriate isolation, which can be achieved in a standard room with the proper ventilation, rather than an ICU setting.
