Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. The BCG vaccine is a vaccine used to prevent tuberculosis (TB) disease. However, its effectiveness varies widely and is primarily used in countries with a high prevalence of TB. Therefore, administering the BCG vaccine is not typically part of the evaluation process for TB exposure in a client.
B. A chest x-ray is commonly used to evaluate for active pulmonary TB disease. It can identify characteristic findings such as infiltrates, cavitations, or nodular lesions in the lungs that suggest TB infection. A chest x- ray is often performed as part of the initial evaluation for TB after exposure or to assess for active disease.
C. Sputum culture for AFB is a definitive diagnostic test for tuberculosis. It involves collecting sputum samples and culturing them in a laboratory to detect the presence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes TB.
D. The tuberculin skin test (TST), also known as the Mantoux test, involves injecting a small amount of purified protein derivative (PPD) into the skin of the forearm. After 48-72 hours, a healthcare provider assesses the size of the induration (swelling) at the injection site. A positive TST indicates exposure to TB but does not differentiate between latent TB infection (LTBI) and active TB disease.

C. Cream cheese is a dairy product that provides protein. This option also provides protein from the cream cheese, which is suitable for a vegetarian who consumes dairy products.
