Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Speaking loudly and into the client’s good ear is not recommended. Loud speech can be distorted and uncomfortable for individuals with presbycusis.
Choice B rationale
Using sign language is not necessary unless the client is proficient in it. Most clients with presbycusis benefit more from clear verbal communication.
Choice C rationale
Sitting by the client’s side and speaking very slowly is not as effective as speaking directly to the client in a normal, clear voice.
Choice D rationale
Speaking directly to the client in a normal, clear voice is recommended. This ensures that the client can read lips and understand the conversation better.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Choice A rationale
A CD4-T-cell count of 180 cells/mm³ indicates severe immunosuppression in a client with HIV, making them highly susceptible to opportunistic infections. This is a critical value that requires immediate attention to prevent life-threatening complications.
Choice B rationale
A positive Western blot test confirms the presence of HIV antibodies but does not indicate the current immune status or the urgency of the client’s condition.
Choice C rationale
Platelets at 150,000/mm³ are within the normal range and do not indicate an immediate threat to the client’s health.
Choice D rationale
A WBC count of 5,000/mm³ is within the normal range and does not indicate an immediate threat to the client’s health.
