A nurse in a provider's office is reviewing the medical record of a client who is requesting a diaphragm. Which of the following findings in the client's history should the nurse identify as a contraindication for this type of contraception?
Deep-vein thrombosis.
Tobacco use.
Recurrent urinary tract infections.
History of positive group B streptococcus B-hemolytic.
The Correct Answer is A
Choice A rationale
Deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) is a contraindication for diaphragm use due to the increased risk of thromboembolic events with estrogen-based contraceptives.
Choice B rationale
Tobacco use, although a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, is not a direct contraindication for diaphragm use, which is a non-hormonal contraceptive method.
Choice C rationale
Recurrent urinary tract infections are a contraindication for diaphragm use due to the risk of infection exacerbation from device insertion.
Choice D rationale
History of positive group B streptococcus B-hemolytic is not a contraindication for diaphragm use; it typically relates to pregnancy and neonatal infection risk.

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Wearing a loose-fitting bra does not help in managing mastitis. Proper breast support and continuing breastfeeding are important to keep the milk flowing and reduce inflammation.
Choice B rationale
Continuing to breastfeed helps to clear the infection and maintain milk supply. It ensures that the ducts are cleared, reducing inflammation and aiding recovery from mastitis.
Choice C rationale
Limiting fluid intake is not recommended. Adequate hydration is crucial to help with milk production and overall recovery, especially during an infection.
Choice D rationale
An abdominal sonogram is not relevant to the management of mastitis. Treatment focuses on antibiotics, pain relief, and continued breastfeeding. .
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Fundus located to the right of the umbilicus requires intervention. This can indicate a full bladder, which can inhibit uterine contraction and increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage.
Choice B rationale
A temperature of 37.8° C (100° F) is a common finding postpartum and usually does not require intervention unless it is accompanied by other signs of infection.
Choice C rationale
Deep tendon reflexes 2+ is a normal finding and does not require intervention. It indicates normal neuromuscular function.
Choice D rationale
A moderate amount of lochia rubra is expected postpartum and does not require intervention unless it is excessive or associated with other abnormal symptoms.
