A man is admitted to the hospital for IV antibiotic therapy
related to osteomyelitis. The nurse begins the admission process by
taking a detailed history. The nurse asks the patient about his
current symptoms and complaints, previous infections, and response
to antibiotic therapy. When the nurse asks the patient about any
history of sexually transmitted infections, the patient responds,
“That’s none of your business.” How should the nurse respond? Why
is it important to obtain a history regarding sexually transmitted
infections?
