Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is coming to the clinic for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing. The patient's enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) results are positive. Which test will be used to confirm the diagnosis of HIV?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The Western blot analysis is the standard confirmatory test for HIV following a positive ELISA result, as it specifically detects the presence of antibodies to HIV proteins. A quantitative RNA assay is used to measure the amount of HIV RNA in the blood and is not used for confirmatory diagnosis. A viral load test assesses the level of virus in the blood but does not confirm the diagnosis of HIV. The CD4+ T-cell count is used to assess immune function but is not a confirmatory test.
