Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

The intervention appropriate for the client experiencing ineffective tissue perfusion is to carefully reposition the client every 2 hours because position changes facilitate circulation and tissue perfusion. The other interventions would be appropriate if the client were experiencing impaired gas exchange.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B

Impairment of skin integrity can lead to bleeding in DIC. The child with DIC should be placed on bed rest. Fluids need to be monitored but will not be restricted. DIC is not diagnosed with radiograph examination but by serum lab studies.
