Question 1 of 5

A 52-year old female patient is receiving medical treatment for a possible tuberculosis infection. The patient is a U.S. resident but grew up in a foreign country. She reports that as a child she received the BCG vaccine (bacille Calmette-Guerin vaccine). Which physician's order below would require the nurse to ask the doctor for an order clarification?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The BCG vaccine can cause false-positive PPD (Mantoux) test results, making it unreliable in patients with a BCG history. The nurse should clarify this order, as an IGRA test (e.g., QuantiFERON-TB Gold) or other diagnostics are preferred.
