Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
After learning about needing an intravenous infusion, the child began to cry. The most appropriate diagnosis would be fear related to intravenous infusion. The infusion has not started, so the child may or may not experience discomfort related to the infusion. The child did not ask the nurse to explain the infusion or the actions and effects of fluid therapy.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
When administering ear drops, if the child is older than 2 years of age, pull the pinna of the ear up and back. The pinna should not be pressed forward, pulled downward, or lifted down and back.
