Question 2 of 9
A nurse in an emergency department is caring for a school-age child who is experiencing an anaphylactic reaction. Which of the following is the priority action by the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: In the management of anaphylaxis, the priority action for the nurse is to administer IM epinephrine to the child. Epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis as it helps reverse the severe manifestations of the reaction by constricting blood vessels, relaxing airway muscles, and decreasing hives and swelling. Elevating the head of the child's bed may be beneficial for respiratory distress but is not the priority over administering epinephrine. Inserting a large-bore IV catheter may be necessary for fluid resuscitation but is not the initial priority. Identifying the allergen is important for prevention and future management but is not the immediate action needed in the acute phase of an anaphylactic reaction.

Question 9 of 9
Which frame of reference emphasizes techniques to teach children movement that resemble coaching?

Rationale: The correct frame of reference that emphasizes techniques to teach children movement resembling coaching is Motor control/motor learning. This approach focuses on improving movement skills through techniques that are similar to coaching methods. It helps children develop and refine their motor skills in a structured and goal-oriented manner. Rehabilitation, Biomechanical, and Ayres' sensory integration have different emphases and objectives in therapy, making them incorrect choices for this question.
