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 an underwire bra is not recommended for clients with inverted nipples as it can cause discomfort and restrict milk flow. Proper support without constriction is essential.
Choice B rationale
Placing breast shells in the client's bra helps to draw out inverted nipples by applying gentle pressure, making breastfeeding easier. They also protect the nipples from friction and irritation.
Choice C rationale
Providing plastic-lined breast pads may prevent leakage, but they do not address the issue of inverted nipples. Proper nipple preparation is essential for effective breastfeeding.
Choice D rationale
Applying breast cream regularly might keep the skin hydrated, but it does not help to correct the inversion of the nipples. Mechanical aids like breast shells are more effective.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Taking an over-the-counter antacid is not recommended for managing nausea during pregnancy without consulting a healthcare provider. Some antacids contain ingredients that may not be safe during pregnancy.
Choice B rationale
Increasing intake of fresh fruits might help with hydration and nutrition but is not specifically effective in managing morning nausea. Some fruits might even exacerbate nausea due to their acidity.
Choice C rationale
Eating dry, bland foods in the morning can help manage nausea for pregnant clients. Foods like crackers, toast, and cereals are easy on the stomach and can help reduce morning sickness.
Choice D rationale
Restricting fluids to 1,000 mL/day is not advisable. Proper hydration is crucial during pregnancy, and such restriction can lead to dehydration and other complications. Fluids should be encouraged rather than restricted.
