Answer to Question 1

Feedback
1. Fatigue and pallor are presumptive signs of leukemia.
2. A urinalysis does not give indications as to a diagnosis for leukemia.
3. The abnormal cells of leukemia are found in the bone marrow.
4. A history and a physical will help identify signs and symptoms, but not give a definitive diagnosis.

Answer to Question 2

1. This is not the first intervention. A pulse oximetry should be assessed to identify the need for oxygen.
2. The first intervention should be to check the child's pulse oximetry.
3. Fever can cause tachypnea. This is not the first action needed.
4. Notifying the physician is not the first action needed.
