Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has had an allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplant. Which of the following infection-control precautions should the nurse use while caring for this client?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Protective precautions. After an allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplant, the client's immune system is severely compromised, making them highly susceptible to infections. Protective precautions involve wearing gloves, gowns, masks, and eye protection to prevent the spread of pathogens. This is crucial to protect the client from potential infections since their immune system is weakened.
The other options are incorrect:
A: Droplet precautions are used for infections transmitted through respiratory droplets, which are not the primary concern for a client post hematopoietic stem-cell transplant.
C: Contact precautions are used for direct contact with the client or their environment, not the primary concern in this case.
D: Airborne precautions are used for infections spread through the air, which is not the primary mode of transmission post hematopoietic stem-cell transplant.
