The nurse identifies deficient knowledge when the client undergoing induction therapy for leukemia makes which of the following statements?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
During leukemia induction therapy, the client is at high risk for infection due to neutropenia. Pets like cats can carry pathogens (e.g., Toxoplasma), and the statement about returning to a cat indicates a knowledge deficit about infection risks. The other statements reflect appropriate self-care measures.
