Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The objective of nursing care is to counsel the parents of high-risk children about the need for both prophylactic antibiotics for dental procedures and maintaining excellent oral health. The child's dentist should be aware of the child's cardiac condition. Dental procedures should be done to maintain a high level of oral health. Restricted mobility in susceptible children is not indicated. Parents are taught to observe for unexplained fever, weight loss, or change in behavior

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Calm perseverance through 10 to 15 minutes of food refusal will eventually diminish negative behavior. Children with FTT need a structured routine to help establish rhythmicity in their activities of daily living. Many children with FTT are fed exclusively from a bottle. Solids should be fed first. Stimulation is reduced during mealtimes to maintain the focus on eating.
