Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The allergen antigen binds to the allergen-specific immunoglobulin E surface, causing activation of the resident airway mast cells and macrophages. This begins the cycle of an asthmatic exacerbation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
For this invasive procedure, written consent is required. Documenting teaching is important, but does not take priority. Allowing the child to simulate the bronchoscopy with a doll with help alleviate fears, but again does not take priority. Telling the child that he or she will not remember the procedure is false reassurance and may not end up being true, causing the child to lose trust in the nurse.
