Question 1 of 5
The nurse is creating a plan of care for a client diagnosed with Sjögren’s syndrome. Which interventions should the nurse incorporate in the plan for this client?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Use of artificial tears. Sjögren’s syndrome is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the salivary and lacrimal glands, leading to dry eyes and dry mouth. Using artificial tears helps to alleviate dryness and discomfort in the eyes. This intervention is crucial in managing the symptoms of Sjögren’s syndrome.
Other choices are incorrect because:
A: Silicone-based vaginal lubricants are not directly related to managing the symptoms of Sjögren’s syndrome.
B: While using dehumidifiers may help with dryness in the environment, it does not directly address the dry eyes associated with Sjögren’s syndrome.
D: Using contact lenses may exacerbate dry eye symptoms in individuals with Sjögren’s syndrome.
