Question

Answer 1

The abnormal findings that the nurse would expect to document are red rashes, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and anxiety. Thus, options a, b, d, and e are correct.

          Syphilis refers to a bacterial infection that is spread by touch and sexual activity. It can spread by the mouth, skin, or mucous secretion. In this infection, people can experience rashes, ulcers, and soreness on their skin. Itching and fatigue are also common symptoms.

          Penicillins and antibiotics are administered to treat this infection. However, after the administration of benzathine penicillin, the nurse should make the patient wait for half an hour in the hospital to see if any kind of allergic reaction is happening.

           The irregularity of the heart is not considered to be an allergy effect. All the other four reactions can be seen as allergy reactions.
