Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is to use a soft toothbrush for oral care. Children with hemophilia have a decreased ability to form blood clots, leading to prolonged bleeding. Using a soft toothbrush helps prevent trauma to the gums and oral mucosa, reducing the risk of bleeding. Encouraging participation in contact sports (Choice A) is contraindicated in hemophiliac patients due to the high risk of injury and bleeding. Administering nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Choice C) and aspirin (Choice D) should be avoided in hemophilia as they can further increase the risk of bleeding due to their antiplatelet effects.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: For a child with diabetes mellitus, following a specific meal plan is crucial for managing blood glucose levels effectively. This helps in maintaining stable blood sugar levels and preventing complications associated with the condition. Monitoring blood glucose levels daily and recognizing signs of hypoglycemia are also important aspects of managing diabetes; however, adherence to a specific meal plan plays a fundamental role in overall diabetes care. Administering insulin based on blood glucose levels alone is not recommended without a specific plan provided by healthcare providers.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Choanal atresia is a congenital condition characterized by the blockage of the nasal passages, specifically the choanae that connect the nasal cavity to the nasopharynx. The nurse should assess the nasopharynx to identify any obstruction, confirm the diagnosis, and assess the severity of the condition. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not pertain to choanal atresia. Choanal atresia specifically involves the nasal passages and nasopharynx, not the rectum, intestinal tract, or laryngopharynx.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The priority intervention for a 3-month-old infant hospitalized with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is to cluster care to conserve energy. Infants with RSV often have difficulty breathing and need to rest frequently. Clustering care involves grouping nursing interventions to allow for longer periods of rest between activities, which helps prevent exhaustion and conserve the infant's energy. Administering an antiviral agent is not the primary intervention for RSV, as it is a viral infection and antiviral agents are not typically used for RSV. Offering oral fluids is important for hydration but may not be the priority when the infant is struggling to breathe. Providing an antitussive agent should be done judiciously and under medical guidance, as suppressing the cough reflex can be detrimental in RSV cases where coughing helps clear airway secretions.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The priority nursing intervention for a child with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is to administer nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs help manage pain and inflammation associated with JIA, making them crucial in providing relief to the child. Encouraging a diet high in protein (Choice A) may be beneficial for overall health but is not the priority in managing JIA symptoms. Applying heat to affected joints (Choice C) can provide comfort but does not address the underlying inflammation. Providing range-of-motion exercises (Choice D) is important for maintaining joint mobility but is not the priority intervention when managing acute symptoms of JIA.
