(Select all that apply - Based on an external source): A nurse is educating a group of young adults about the prevention of infectious mononucleosis (IM) Which measures should the nurse include in the teaching? Select all that apply.


Correct Answer: ["A","B","E"]

Choice A rationale:

Practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands frequently, can help prevent the spread of the virus through contaminated surfaces and close contact.

Choice B rationale:

Avoiding sharing personal items, such as toothbrushes or utensils, reduces the risk of direct contact with infected saliva, which can transmit the virus.

Choice C rationale:

Receiving immunoglobulin injections within 72 hours of EBV exposure is not a standard preventive measure for IM. There is no established prophylactic treatment for EBV.

Choice D rationale:

Using barrier methods during oral sex may help prevent the transmission of sexually transmitted infections, but it is not a specific preventive measure for IM.

Choice E rationale:

Getting enough sleep to boost the immune system is a reasonable preventive measure, as a strong immune system can better defend against viral infections like IM.
