The nurse is assisting the client with multiple myeloma to ambulate. What is the most important nursing diagnosis to help
prevent fractures in this client?
Safety
Safety is paramount because any injury, no matter how slight, can result in a fracture.
Which of the following is the only curative treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)?
Allogeneic stem cell transplant
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation remains the only curative treatment for CML. The efficacy of Imatinib as first-line
treatment and the treatment-related mortality of stem cell transplant limits use of transplant to patients with high risk or
relapsed disease, or in those patients who did not respond to therapy with TKI. Cytarabine and idarubicin are part of
induction therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Which of the following are complications related to polycythemia vera (PV)? Select all that apply.
-CVA
-MI
-Ulcers
-Hematuria
Patients with PV are at increased risk for thromboses resulting in a CVA or myocardial infarction. Bleeding can be
significant and can occur in the form of nosebleeds, ulcers, frank gastrointestinal bleeding, and intracranial hemorrhage.
Splenomegaly is a clinical manifestation of PV, not a complication.
