What laboratory test will the nurse obtain to determine what type of helminth is infecting the patient?
A) Stool culture
B) Stool for ova and parasite
C) Renal function studies
D) Liver function studies
B
Feedback:
The only test to specifically determine what helminth is involved is a stool culture for ova and parasite. A simple stool culture would not be likely to identify the helminth. Renal and liver function studies would indicate the functioning of these organ systems but would not identify the helminth.
