Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, F
Manifestations of the stage of despair seen in children during a hospitalization may include withdrawing from others, being uncommunicative, and regressing to earlier behaviors. Clinging to parents and physically attacking a stranger should be seen during the stage of protest, and forming new but superficial relationships is seen during the stage of detachment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Children can grasp information only if it is presented on or close to their level of cognitive development. This necessitates an awareness of the words used to describe events or processes, and exploring family traditions or approaches to information sharing and creating patient specific language or context. Therefore, to prevent or alleviate fears, nurses must be aware of the medical terminology and vocabulary that they use every day and be sensitive to the use of slang or confusing terminology. Catheter is a medical term and would be confusing.
