Question 1 of 5

A pregnant client requires immediate but temporary protection from chickenpox. Which type of immunization would be required?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Passive immunization involves the administration of pre-formed antibodies rather than stimulating the individual's immune system to produce its own antibodies (active immunization). In the case of a pregnant client requiring immediate but temporary protection from chickenpox, passive immunization would be the most appropriate choice. This is because passive immunization can provide immediate protection without activating the pregnant individual's immune system, which could pose potential risks during pregnancy. By introducing pre-formed antibodies against chickenpox, the pregnant client can acquire temporary immunity to the virus, safeguarding both her and her developing baby.

Bennett was rushed to the emergency department with possible increased intracranial pressure (ICP); which of the following is an early clinical manifestation of increased ICP in older children? (Select all that apply.)

Papilledema is defined as optic disc swelling due to increased ICP transmitted to the optic nerve sheath. This can be visualized during a fundoscopic examination. It is important to identify papilledema promptly as it may signify increased ICP, which requires urgent evaluation and management to prevent potential complications. While other signs like Macewen's sign, Setting sun sign, and Diplopia can also indicate increased ICP, papilledema is a more specific sign seen in older children.
