Question 1 of 5

A nurse is preparing to collect a sputum specimen from a client. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale:
Correct
Answer: C - Collect the sputum specimen in the morning.


Rationale: Collecting the sputum specimen in the morning is ideal because secretions have accumulated overnight, providing a better sample. Sputum is typically more concentrated and easier to collect in the morning due to reduced oral intake and minimal contamination. It is important to collect the specimen before the client eats or performs oral hygiene to avoid contamination. Using sterile gloves (Option
A) is unnecessary for sputum collection, as it is not an invasive procedure. Placing the specimen in a clean container (Option
B) is important, but the timing of collection is more crucial. Obtaining the specimen after the client uses mouthwash (Option
D) can alter the sample composition and is not recommended.
