Answer to Question 1

A
Allowing the child to wear her own clothes helps to bridge the gap between home and hospital. Wearing clothes from home should not pose an infection control problem. The nurse can assess the clothing and determine if this is a risk.

Answer to Question 2

C

Feedback
A Incorrect. The child with nasopharyngitis would present with a normal white blood count, fever, and nasal stuffiness can lead to an earache (but, chronic earache?).
B Incorrect. The child with nasopharyngitis would not present with an increase in immature white cells, a subnormal temperature, or yellow-green discharge.
C Correct. Assessing a child with nasopharyngitis, the nurse would most likely find the child to have the following signs or symptoms: nasal stuffiness, rhinitis, sneezing, nasal discharge, coughing, sore throat, fever, irritability, and malaise. They will have a normal white blood cell count (WBC).
D Incorrect. The child with nasopharyngitis would not present with a normal CBC, but may present with headache, pain around the sinuses, and lethargy.
