Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a child who is having a tonic-clonic seizure and vomiting. Which of the following actions is the nurse's priority?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: While placing a pillow under the child's head might seem like a good idea, it's actually not recommended during a seizure. The child's movements could be unpredictable, and a pillow could potentially cause suffocation. Removing the child's eyeglasses is a good idea, but it's not the first thing you should do. The child's safety is the top priority, and eyeglasses can be removed once the child is safe. Timing the seizure is important for medical professionals to know, but it's not the first action to take. The child's immediate safety is the priority. Moving the child into a side-lying position is the priority. This position helps keep the airway clear and allows any vomit to exit the mouth, reducing the risk of choking.
