Answer 1

Answer:  A client who has symptoms of infection but whose culture and sensitivity results are not yet available 

Broad-spectrum antibiotics are often used to treat infections of a client who has symptoms of infection but whose culture and sensitivity results are not yet available.  The presence of a fever say a client with an oral temperature of 37.9°C, would not be an indication also to use broad-spectrum antibiotics. Age also.
