A nurse is caring for a client. Which of the following client statements should the nurse identify as an indication of anorexia nervosa?
"I spend lots of time searching for new recipes."
"I have so much energy."
"I enjoy wearing form-fitting clothes to show off my body."
"I know I am skinny."
The Correct Answer is D
Rationale:
A. Spending time searching for new recipes does not necessarily indicate anorexia nervosa and might be associated with interest in food without consumption.
B. Reporting high energy levels is not characteristic of anorexia nervosa, where clients often suffer from fatigue due to inadequate nutrition.
C. Enjoying wearing form-fitting clothes is more indicative of a positive body image, which is not typical of those with anorexia nervosa.
D. The statement "I know I am skinny" reflects an awareness of low body weight, which, in the context of anorexia nervosa, might indicate a distorted body image and an unhealthy focus on being underweight.

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Placing a client with active tuberculosis in a room with another client increases the risk of airborne transmission of the infection, which is inappropriate for infection control.
B. A room with air exhaust directly to the outdoor environment is ideal for a client with active tuberculosis because it provides negative pressure, helping to contain and prevent the spread of the infectious airborne particles.
C. The ICU is typically reserved for critically ill patients requiring intensive monitoring and care, and it may not provide the necessary infection control measures for TB.
D. A room near the nurses' station would not ensure the negative pressure ventilation needed to prevent airborne transmission of tuberculosis.
Correct Answer is ["A","C","D"]
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Protein intake should be limited in clients with CKD to reduce the burden on the kidneys, as excessive protein can accelerate kidney damage.
B. Caloric intake typically needs to be adequate to meet energy requirements, not necessarily limited unless advised by a healthcare provider based on specific health needs.
C. Sodium intake should be restricted to prevent fluid retention and hypertension, which can worsen kidney function.
D. Phosphorous should be limited to avoid hyperphosphatemia, which can lead to bone and cardiovascular problems in CKD patients.
E. Calcium intake is usually maintained or adjusted carefully, rather than broadly limited, to manage bone health and prevent complications associated with CKD.
