The nurse answers a call bell and finds a frightened mother whose child is having a seizure. Which of these actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: During a seizure, safety is priority: clear hazards and position the child (e.g., on side) to protect airway and prevent injury. Option A risks harm. Option B (restraint) can injure. Option C delays immediate action.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The blinking reflex protects the eyes, triggered by bright light or sudden objects near the face. Oxygen supply (B) is unrelated. Options C and D are missing.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive disorder from a static brain lesion, affecting posture and movement. Option B (False) is correct.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Direct pressure to the nose stops most anterior epistaxis (Kiesselbach plexus) as the initial step. Packing (B) or cautery (D) follows if pressure fails. Option A is incomplete.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV), administered nasally, is contraindicated in individuals with severe asthma because it can exacerbate respiratory conditions due to its replication in the nasal passages. Choice A (egg allergy) is not a contraindication for LAIV since current formulations have minimal egg protein, and ACIP allows its use in egg-allergic patients unless anaphylaxis history exists. Choice C (chronic diseases) is too vague—some chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes) are not contraindications, though immunocompromised states are. Choice D (active tuberculosis) is a precaution, not an absolute contraindication, though vaccination may be deferred. Severe asthma is the clearest contraindication here.
