Answer to Question 1

A
Most children with atopic dermatitis have a family history of asthma, hay fever, or atopic dermatitis and up to 80 of children with atopic dermatitis have asthma or allergic rhinitis. Complications of atopic dermatitis relate to the skin. The renal system is not affected by atopic dermatitis. There is no link between lower respiratory tract infections and atopic dermatitis. Atopic dermatitis does not have a relationship to neurotoxicity.

Answer to Question 2

D
Setting priorities is a part of planning. Writing nursing diagnoses, reviewing diagnostic reports, and collecting data are parts of assessment.
