A child who has a suspected diagnosis of bacterial meningitis


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a child who has a suspected diagnosis of bacterial meningitis. Which of the following actions is the nurse's priority?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Administer antibiotics when available. Administering antibiotics promptly is crucial in bacterial meningitis to prevent complications and improve outcomes. Immediate treatment is essential to target the infection and prevent further spread. Documenting intake and output, reducing environmental stimuli, and maintaining seizure precautions are important aspects of care but not the priority in this situation. Antibiotics take precedence to address the underlying infection and prevent potential life-threatening complications.
