Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is at 36 weeks of gestation and has methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Which of the following types of isolation precautions should the nurse initiate?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Contact precautions. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRS
A) is primarily spread through direct contact with contaminated skin or surfaces. Contact precautions involve wearing gloves and gowns when in contact with the client or the client's environment to prevent the spread of the infection. Droplet precautions are used for infections transmitted through respiratory droplets, such as influenza. Protective environment precautions are for immunocompromised clients. Airborne precautions are for infections transmitted through small droplets that stay in the air for long periods, such as tuberculosis.
Therefore, the most appropriate precaution for a client with MRSA at 36 weeks of gestation is contact precautions to prevent transmission of the infection through direct contact.
