3-year-old diagnosed with spastic cerebral palsy.
Question 1 of 5
A 3-year-old is diagnosed with spastic cerebral palsy. What information should the nurse include in the discharge teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
Correct
Answer: A
Rationale: A child with spastic cerebral palsy will have motor difficulties due to muscle stiffness and tightness. By modifying activities to match the child's developmental age, the nurse ensures that the child can engage in appropriate play and learning experiences while accommodating their physical limitations. This approach promotes optimal development and prevents frustration.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Corticosteroids are not typically used for spastic cerebral palsy, there is no progressive muscle degeneration associated with the disorder, and prenatal screening cannot predict the occurrence of cerebral palsy.
