Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 5, 6
Strategies to help a preoperative pediatric client feel less anxious prior to a surgical procedure include taking the client on a tour of the operating room, allowing the client to bring a toy or stuffed animal, allowing the parents to stay with the client as much as possible, using age-appropriate explanations, and responding to questions in a straightforward manner. Having a chaplain say a prayer with the child is good, but it may not be age appropriate.

Common health problems associated with chronic pain include osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and chronic pulmonary disease. Heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and anemia are not associated with chronic pain.
