Question 4 of 5

A client with chronic osteomyelitis is being discharged from the hospital. What is the nurse's priority discharge intervention?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Teaching adherence to the antibiotic regimen. In chronic osteomyelitis, the priority is to ensure proper treatment of the infection, which heavily relies on consistent adherence to the prescribed antibiotic regimen. This helps in eradicating the infectious organisms and preventing recurrence. Choices A, B, and D are important aspects of care but teaching adherence to the antibiotic regimen takes precedence as it directly impacts the successful management of chronic osteomyelitis.

Question 5 of 5

Why is a client with osteoporosis prone to fractures?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. Osteoporosis is characterized by porous, weak bones due to decreased bone density. This porous nature of bones in osteoporosis makes them more prone to fractures. Choice A is incorrect because bone spurs do not lead to fractures in osteoporosis; they are bony outgrowths unrelated to osteoporosis. Choice B is incorrect as osteoporosis is associated with decreased, not increased, bone density. Choice D is incorrect as individuals with osteoporosis are indeed prone to fractures due to weakened bones.
