Verified step by step guidance

Understand the context: A burn client is undergoing sulfonamide therapy. Sulfonamides are antibiotics that can help prevent or treat infections.

Identify the potential complications: Burn patients are at a high risk for infections due to the loss of skin integrity, which serves as a barrier to pathogens.

Evaluate the nursing diagnoses provided: Consider which diagnosis directly relates to the primary concern for a burn patient on sulfonamide therapy.

Prioritize based on patient safety: The risk of infection is a critical concern for burn patients, as infections can lead to severe complications and delay healing.

Conclude that 'Risk for Infection' is the high-priority nursing diagnosis, as it directly addresses the primary concern of preventing infection in a burn client on sulfonamide therapy.
