The cranky child with Kawasaki disease demands to know how much longer the aspirin protocol will continue. The nurse bases the response on the knowledge that the aspirin protocol will:
 
  a. Continue for 6 to 8 weeks if there are no coronary problems
  b. Continue for the rest of the child's life on low dosages
  c. Be titrated down after the temperature has stayed below 99 for 5 days
  d. Be terminated when C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) have returned to normal

Question 2

Karen is a camp nurse and is preparing information about Lyme's disease to give to the campers. Karen knows that a child could be initially infected without her knowing because:
 
  1. The bite is so small that it is hard to with the human eye.
   2. Children do not usually react to a tick bite immediately after it occurs.
   3. Signs and symptoms may appear up to 32 days after the initial bite.
   4. Mosquito bites and tick bites look similar, so children do not notice.
