Question

a. Absence of periods of remission
b. Attacks becoming increasingly frequent
c. Absence of active disease manifestations
d. Gradual neurologic symptoms without remission

Answer 1

The nurse assesses for the absence of active disease manifestations in the client with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS).

Step-by-step explanation:

The nurse assesses for the absence of active disease manifestations in the client with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS).

Relapsing-remitting MS is characterized by periods of active disease (relapses) followed by periods of remission. During the remission periods, the patient may be free from disease symptoms, or their symptoms may be minimal. The absence of active disease manifestations indicates that the client is in a period of remission.
