Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback
A Children with hypothyroidism are usually sleepy.
B Constipation is associated with hypothyroidism.
C Thick, dry skin, mental decline, cold intolerance, and weight gain are associated
with juvenile hypothyroidism.
D Decelerated growth is common in juvenile hypothyroidism.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
During the home visit, the nurse should have instructed the mother on home safety with oxygen therapy. This includes knowing not to light candles near oxygen for a birthday. The statement about no guests smoking indicates that teaching has been effective. The statements about fatigue and having help with presents do not evaluate the effectiveness of teaching on home oxygen safety.
