ANS: B
The result should be measured by diameter of erythema in millimeters, and the induration should be palpated and measured in millimeters. Itching is not relevant to the results; weeping should be reported to the health care provider but is not pertinent to the evaluation of the skin test. Swelling, coolness, pallor, and drainage are not relevant to evaluation; reporting this to the health care provider is appropriate but not pertinent to the evaluation of the skin test.
