The father of a child with acute glomerulonephritis asks the nurse why blood pressure readings are being taken so often. The nurse knows that:
 
  1. The antibiotic therapy the child is receiving can influence increases in blood pressure.
   2. The child can develop hypotension at any time because of the damage to the kidneys.
   3. A child with this illness can have sudden increases in blood pressure without warning.
   4. Blood pressure must be maintained within normal limits to make sure that the kidneys do not stop working.

Question 2

According to Piaget's theory, a normal thought process for an 18 to 24-month-old child would be:
 
  1. A diaper means a diaper changing is going to occur.
   2. A rattle should go in the mouth.
   3. A loud noise means something bad is going to happen.
   4. A thumb is for sucking.
