The nurse is working with a school-age child who is hospitalized.In planning care that will promote a sense of industry in this child,the nurse will
 
  1. allow the child to assist with her care.
  2. encourage parents to participate inthe child's care.
  3. give the child a detailed scientificexplanati on of the illness.
  4. speak to the child in a high-pitchedvoice

Question 2

A woman at 28 weeks' gestation is asked to keep a fetal activity diary and to bring the results with her to her next clinic visit.
 
  One week later, she calls the clinic and anxiously tells the nurse that she has not felt the baby move for more than 30 minutes. The most appropriate initial comment by the nurse would be: 1. You need to come to the clinic right away for further evaluation.
  2. Have you been smoking?
  3. When did you eat last?
  4. Your baby might be asleep.

Answer to Question 1

Answer:1
Rationale: Allowing the child to participate in her care will decrease the sense of loss of control and increase a sense of industry. While parents can certainly participate in their child's care,it does not increase the child's sense of control. School-age children in general will not understand detailed scientific explanations.Change in voice tone is appropriate when talking to very young children.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale 1: The mother would need to come to the clinic only if there had been no fetal activity for several hours.
Rationale 2: Smoking typically stimulates the infant.
Rationale 3: After meals, an infant typically is active and moving.
Rationale 4: Lack of fetal activity for 30 minutes typically is insignificant, and means only that the infant is sleeping. If the mother truly is concerned, in 30 minutes, she could eat a complex-carbohydrate snack. This would stimulate the infant, and the mother should have fetal activity. But at present, this is an indicator the infant is sleeping.
