Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback

in limiting exposure to infection, these must be balanced with the concern for the
child's normal developmental needs.
B Preventing secondary cancers is not currently possible.
C Current drug therapy is affecting the disease progression; although not a cure,
these drugs can suppress viral replication preventing further deterioration.
D Case finding is not a priority nursing goal.
