An infant who has spina bifida
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for an infant who has spina bifida. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Diapering over a low defect will keep the infant free from infection. This is because keeping the area covered with a diaper helps prevent contamination and infection. Placing the infant in prone position (choice
A) is not recommended as it can put pressure on the lesion. Covering the lesion with a dry cloth (choice
B) may not provide adequate protection from contamination. Feeding the infant through an NG tube (choice
C) is not directly related to preventing infection at the lesion site.
Therefore, the best option is to diaper over the defect to maintain hygiene and prevent infection.
