Question 1 of 5

A female adolescent with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is admitted to the hospital after 14 days of taking levofloxacin 500 mg by mouth (PO) once daily and metronidazole 500 mg PO twice daily. She asks the nurse, 'Why do I have to be in the hospital? Why can't I get my treatment at home?' What purpose should the nurse provide that supports an effective outcome?

A. Implementation of contact precautions to prevent spread of infection. B. Administration of a supervised parenteral antibiotic protocol. C. Detection of early symptoms of Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction. D. Collection of serial anaerobic cultures of vaginal discharge.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Hospitalization ensures effective treatment through supervised parenteral antibiotics for severe PID, improving outcomes. Contact precautions, Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction, and cultures are not primary reasons.
