Risk for Infection

Provide a clean, well-ventilated environment. Screen

Objective:

Elevated
temperature:
38.9 degree
celsius

Scientific Rationale

Reduces number of pathogens presented to the

visitors and staff for signs of infection and maintain

isolation precautions as indicated.

immune system and reduces possibility of patient

contracting a nosocomial infection.

Discuss extent and rationale for isolation precautions

Promotes cooperation with regimen and may lessen

and maintenance of personal hygiene.

Monitor vital signs, including temperature.

Assess respiratory rate and depth; note dry

spasmodic cough on deep inspiration, changes in
characteristics of sputum, and presence of
wheezes or rhonchi. Initiate respiratory isolation
when etiology of productive cough is unknown.

Investigate reports of headache, stiff neck, altered

vision. Note changes in mentation and behavior.
Monitor for nuchal rigidity and seizure activity.

Examine skin and oral mucous membranes for white

patches or lesions.

Clean patients nails frequently. File, rather than cut,

and avoid trimming cuticles.

feelings of isolation.

Provides information for baseline data; frequent

temperature elevations and onset of new fever
indicates that the body is responding to a new
infectious process or that medications are not
effectively controlling incurable infections.

Respiratory congestion or distress may indicate

developing PCP; however, TB is on the rise and
other fungal, viral, and bacterial infections may
occur that compromise the respiratory system. CMV
and PCP can reside together in the lungs and, if
treatment is not effective for PCP, the addition of
CMV therapy may be effective.

Neurological abnormalities are common and may be

related to HIV or secondary infections. Symptoms
may vary from subtle changes in mood and
sensorium (personality changes or depression) to
hallucinations, memory loss, severe dementias,
seizures, and loss of vision. CNS infections
(encephalitis is the most common) may be caused
by protozoal and helminthic organisms or fungus.

Oral candidiasis, KS, herpes, CMV, and cryptococcosis

are common opportunistic diseases affecting the
cutaneous membranes.
Reduces risk of transmission of pathogens through
breaks in skin. Fungal infections along the nail plate
are common.
