Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a clinic is assessing a client who has AIDS and a significantly decreased CD4-T-cell count. The nurse should recognize that the client is at risk for developing which of the following infectious oral conditions?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Candidiasis. Patients with significantly decreased CD4-T-cell count, such as those with AIDS, are prone to fungal infections like oral candidiasis due to their weakened immune system. Candidiasis presents as white patches in the mouth.
Incorrect options:
A: Gingivitis is a common gum disease but not directly related to decreased CD4-T-cell count.
C: Xerostomia refers to dry mouth, which can occur in AIDS patients but not directly linked to the low CD4-T-cell count.
D: Halitosis is bad breath, not specifically associated with decreased CD4-T-cell count.
