Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Covering the sac with saline-soaked nonadhesive gauze is essential in the preoperative care of an infant with myelomeningocele. This practice helps prevent infection and maintains moisture around the sac before surgery, promoting optimal healing outcomes. Positioning the infant supine with a pillow under the buttocks may be uncomfortable and unnecessary. Wrapping the infant snugly in a blanket does not address the specific care needs of the myelomeningocele. Applying a diaper over the sac can increase the risk of infection and should be avoided in this case.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Diarrhea. Rotavirus infection commonly presents with symptoms such as watery diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and abdominal pain. However, diarrhea is the hallmark symptom of rotavirus infection, often leading to dehydration in children. Abdominal pain (choice A) can also be present but is not as specific to rotavirus infection as diarrhea. Constipation (choice C) is not a typical symptom of rotavirus infection. While vomiting (choice D) can occur in rotavirus infection, it is more commonly associated with other gastrointestinal conditions.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Assessing the child's dietary intake is crucial in managing asthma as certain foods can trigger or worsen symptoms. Monitoring dietary habits helps identify any potential triggers and ensures proper nutrition, which can impact asthma control. Assessing sleep patterns, academic performance, or behavior at home may provide valuable information in a general health assessment, but when specifically managing asthma, dietary intake assessment is the most relevant.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The grasp reflex and startle reflex (Moro reflex) are normal in newborns but typically disappear as the infant's nervous system matures and voluntary control develops. At around five months of age, these reflexes are replaced by voluntary movements as part of the normal developmental process. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. Choice A suggests delaying a decision until further assessment, which is not necessary as the disappearance of these reflexes is a normal part of infant development. Choice B implies a developmental delay, which is not the case as these reflexes naturally disappear with age. Choice C recommending additional sensory stimulation is unnecessary and not the reason for the absence of these reflexes.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Teaching seizure first aid to family members is essential as it empowers them to respond effectively during a seizure. Keeping a diary of seizure activity is important for tracking patterns and triggers but is not directly related to immediate safety. Administering antiepileptic medication only when a seizure occurs is not recommended as medications should be administered as prescribed by healthcare providers. Restricting the child's activities to prevent seizures is not appropriate as children with epilepsy should be encouraged to lead active lives while taking necessary precautions.
