護理師應優先將哪位病人安置於單人病房,以維持安全與感染控制?
Which of the following clients should the nurse prioritize for placement in a private room to maintain safety and infection control?
- AA client with history of community-acquired pneumonia有社區型肺炎病史的病人
- BA client with a localized wound infection caused by MRSA患有由耐甲氧西林金黃色葡萄球菌(MRSA)引起的局部傷口感染的病人
- CA client with suspected pulmonary tuberculosis✓ 正解疑似患有肺結核的病人
- DA client with stage 2 pressure injury患有第二期壓瘡的病人
肺結核(Tuberculosis)是由結核分枝桿菌引起的疾病,主要透過空氣微粒(Airborne droplets)傳播。根據 CDC 感染控制指引,疑似肺結核患者需立即採取「空氣隔離措施(Airborne precautions)」,包括安置於負壓病房(Negative pressure room)並配戴 N95 口罩。這是為了保護病房內其他病人與醫護人員不受空氣中病原體的感染,優先級極高。
Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is transmitted primarily by airborne droplet nuclei. According to CDC infection-control guidelines, clients with suspected pulmonary tuberculosis require immediate airborne precautions, including placement in a negative-pressure room and use of an N95 respirator. This protects other clients and staff from airborne pathogens and is therefore an extremely high priority.
