Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing discharge teaching to a client recently diagnosed with a latex allergy. Which of the following client statements indicates a need for further teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Latex allergy can be triggered by latex balloons.
Therefore, buying balloons for the son's birthday could potentially expose the client to latex, leading to an allergic reaction. Elastic bandages, dishwashing gloves, and ink pens are typically latex-free alternatives. The other choices are incorrect because they do not involve direct exposure to latex.
