Children with impetigo at summer day camp
Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a summer day camp that has access to a local beach has cared for several children with impetigo. What is the best nursing intervention to prevent complications?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Impetigo is a bacterial skin infection that can lead to complications if not managed properly. By removing the crusts with an antimicrobial liquid, the nurse can help prevent the spread of the infection to other areas of the skin and to other campers. This intervention helps to eliminate the source of bacteria and promotes healing.
Choice A is incorrect because impetigo is a bacterial infection, not a fungal infection, so antifungal medications would not be effective.
Choice B is also incorrect for the same reason.
Choice C is incorrect as oil-based soap may not effectively eliminate the bacteria causing impetigo. The best way to prevent complications is by directly addressing the bacterial infection through the removal of crusts with an antimicrobial liquid.
