Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client prior to administering a seasonal influenza vaccine. The client says he read about an influenza vaccine that is given as a nasal spray and wants to receive it. The nurse should recognize that Which of the following findings is a contraindication for the client receiving the live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAV)?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale:
Rationale:
Choice C is correct because the live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAV) is not recommended for individuals aged 50 and above. The client's age of 62 falls within this category, making it a contraindication. This is due to the potential for decreased immune response and increased risk of adverse effects in older adults.
Summary of other choices:
A: History of myocardial infarction is not a contraindication for LAV.
B: Smoking is not a contraindication for LAV.
D: Traveling to Europe is not a contraindication for LAV.
Therefore, choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they are not contraindications for receiving the live attenuated influenza vaccine.
