A nurse is participating in a health fair for older adult clients. Which of the
following vaccines should the nurse recommend for this age group?
- Herpes zoster
Rationale:
The nurse should recommend the herpes zoster vaccine for adults who are 60 years
of age and older.
--------------
The nurse should recommend the meningococcal vaccine to college students and
military recruits who are living in shared housing.
The nurse should recommend the HPV vaccine for clients who are 9 to 26 years of
age.
The nurse should recommend the MMR vaccine to clients who are 62 years of age.
A nurse is reviewing the laboratory results of a client who is scheduled for a CT
scan with an IV contrast agent. Which of the following laboratory findings should
the nurse report to the provider prior to the procedures?
- Creatinine 1.9 mg/dL
Rationale:
Creatinine 1.9 mg/dL is not within the expected reference range. Therefore, the
nurse should report the finding to the provider before the client has a CT scan with
an IV contrast agent. This finding places the client at risk for developing contrastinduced nephropathy.
