Choice A rationale:

Administering the Td vaccine only if the wound is severe is not the correct response. Tetanus prophylaxis is recommended based on wound type and vaccination history, not just the severity of the wound.

Choice B rationale:

This is the correct response. Tetanus prophylaxis involves giving Tetanus Immunoglobulin (TIG) for immediate protection against tetanus toxin, along with the Tetanus and Diphtheria (Td) vaccine to promote long-term immunity. The decision to administer TIG and Td vaccine depends on the patient's wound type and their vaccination history.

Choice C rationale:

Tetanus prophylaxis is necessary even if the client received the DTP vaccine in childhood. The immunity from childhood vaccines may wane over time, and tetanus prophylaxis is recommended after potential exposure to the tetanus-causing bacteria.

Choice D rationale:

Giving the Td vaccine every 5 years is not the correct approach. The recommended schedule for Td booster doses is every 10 years, not every 5 years.
