護理師照護一位疑似傳染病病患，在等待檢驗報告前，應先採取哪項傳染預防措施？
A nurse is caring for a client with a suspected infectious disease. Which transmission-based precaution should the nurse initiate while awaiting laboratory results?
- ADroplet Precautions飛沫預防
- BAirborne Precautions空氣預防
- CStandard Precautions✓ 正解標準防護
- DContact Precautions接觸預防
根據 CDC 原則，在傳染病確診前，所有病患都應一律採用「標準防護（Standard Precautions）」。標準防護包含接觸血液、體液、分泌物時戴手套與防護設備，這是預防感染擴散的第一道防線，直至病原體鑑定完成後再視需求採取特殊防護（如接觸、飛沫或空氣）。
According to CDC guidelines, all clients receive Standard Precautions until a specific pathogen is identified. Standard Precautions include the use of gloves and other protective equipment when handling blood, body fluids, and secretions, and they form the foundation of infection prevention. Once the pathogen is identified, additional transmission-based precautions (contact, droplet, or airborne) are added as needed.
台灣醫院對疑似個案常會採「謹慎預防」措施，有時會直接給予隔離室；美國則嚴格依據傳染途徑分級。
