Question 1 of 5

The client is at risk for septic emboli after being diagnosed with meningococcal meningitis. Which action by the nurse directly addresses this risk?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Monitoring VS is indicated but does not address the complication of septic emboli. Immunization with the meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine (Menomune) is a preventive measure against meningitis and would not be included in treatment. Frequent neurological assessments are indicated but do not address the complication of septic emboli. Frequent vascular assessments will detect vascular compromise secondary to septic emboli. Early detection allows for interventions that will prevent gangrene and possible loss of limb.
