A client with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is on airborne isolation precautions. Which item(s) is essential for the nurse to wear?

High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter mask

The hospitalized client with TB is placed on airborne isolation. A HEPA filter mask must be worn whenever the nurse enters the client's room, because these masks can remove almost 100% of the small TB particles. This mask must fit snugly around the nose and mouth. Option 1 is an incorrect option; although gloves may be needed, the nurse must wear a HEPA mask. Option 2 is incorrect. The mask must be a HEPA mask. Option 3 is an incorrect choice. The mask must be a HEPA mask, and there is no need for gown and gloves unless a wound, body fluid, or blood is involved.
