Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the medical record for a client who has a health care-associated infection (HAI). The nurse should identify which of the following findings as a risk factor for acquiring an HAI?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: The client is 71 years old. Advanced age is a known risk factor for acquiring healthcare-associated infections due to weakened immune function and higher likelihood of comorbidities. Older individuals have a higher susceptibility to infections, making them more prone to acquiring HAIs.
Choice A (The client is a male) is incorrect as gender alone is not a direct risk factor for HAIs.
Choice C (The client had an appendectomy 6 months ago) is not a direct risk factor for acquiring HAIs unless there were complications during the surgery.
Choice D (The client has bipolar disorder) is also not a direct risk factor for HAIs unless it compromises the client's immune system.
