1. Question
What is the priority of care in a client that is undergoing external radiation therapy?
CorrectOption D is the correct answer.
Rationale: The client should be assessed for areas that are burned so that treatment can occur to prevent further damage to the skin and underlying tissues. Fluid volume status should also be addressed due to the body’s response to the burn.
A is incorrect—The markings placed on the body for radiation therapy should not be removed to ensure that alignment of the radiation can occur with preciseness. B is incorrect— Only with internal radiation should a distance be kept from the patient. C is incorrect—Grouping client care to minimize exposure to radiation is not necessary with external radiation.
