Pediatric Research Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following measures will not help correct the patient's condition
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Frequent oral care is important for overall oral health and cleanliness, but it will not directly help correct the patient's fluid imbalance. The patient's condition likely requires direct fluid replacement to address the fluid loss and restore balance. A, B, and D are focused on fluid replacement strategies which are more crucial in correcting the patient's condition. Offering a large amount of oral fluid intake to replace lost fluids, giving enteral or parenteral fluid, and giving small volumes of fluid at frequent intervals are all appropriate measures that can help correct the patient's condition by addressing the underlying fluid imbalance.

The mother's determination and willingness to persevere through any difficulties play a significant role in the success of breastfeeding. Additionally, a positive attitude and mindset can greatly impact the mother's breastfeeding experience and enhance the bond between the mother and baby.
