The nurse continues to care for the patient The client is a 19-year-old male who is in the emergency room for a leg injury. He states he was returning to his dorm from a party and fell about 5 feet (1.5 meters) into a small ravine on campus. The client states that he drinks socially and takes no medications for any health condition. The nurse is listening to the client. Because the client is a male, he is especially at risk for which psychosocial two sequalae of sexual assault?

A. Suicide is a potential risk following sexual assault due to the emotional trauma that can ensue; however, it is not specific to males and therefore not the best answer in this context. B. Depression is a common sequela of sexual assault among survivors due to the significant psychological impact of the trauma, which can lead to feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a loss of interest in activities once enjoyed. C. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is another frequent outcome of sexual assault, characterized by persistent mental and emotional stress as a result of injury or severe psychological shock. PTSD can manifest in nightmares, flashbacks, and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event. D. Becoming an abuser is a potential outcome for some survivors of sexual assault, but it is not one of the most common sequelae and is not supported by the literature as a primary risk for male survivors. E. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a risk in cases of sexual assault where the transmission of bodily fluids occurs, but it is not a psychological sequela and thus not relevant to the question. F. Chlamydia, like HIV, is a sexually transmitted infection that can be a risk in cases of sexual assault involving transmission of bodily fluids. However, it is not a psychological sequela and is not specific to the male gender in the context of sexual assault risk factors.
