The nurse is monitoring clients for development of a brain abscess. Which client would be the nurseÔÇÖs lowest priority for monitoring for a brain abscess?

The client with endocarditis has an infective process within the bodyÔÇÖs circulation and is at risk for septic emboli, which could progress to a brain abscess. The client who has idiopathic epilepsy has the lowest risk of developing a brain abscess because epilepsy from an unknown cause does not have the risk factors of an active infectious process or an impaired immune system. The client with the liver transplant is at risk for brain abscess because immunosuppressant medications depress the immune system. The client with meningitis has an infective process in close proximity to the brain and should be monitored for a brain abscess.
