Infant with diaper dermatitis.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for an infant who has diaper dermatitis. What is an appropriate action for the nurse to take when caring for this client?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Expose the excoriated area to air frequently. This is the best action as it helps to promote healing by allowing the affected skin to breathe and reducing moisture which can further irritate the diaper dermatitis. Washing off the barrier cream with each diaper change (
A) can strip the skin of its protective barrier. Cloth diapers (
B) may not be practical for all caregivers and may not address the underlying issue of moisture. Talcum powder (
C) can actually worsen diaper dermatitis by further irritating the skin.
Therefore, exposing the excoriated area to air frequently is the most appropriate action in managing diaper dermatitis.
