Question 1 of 5

A nurse is performing an admission assessment of a school-age child who has spina bifida. The parent states that the child is allergic to latex. The nurse should assess further for cross-sensitivity to which of the following foods?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Bananas. This is because individuals allergic to latex may also exhibit cross-sensitivity to certain fruits such as bananas due to shared allergenic proteins. This phenomenon is known as latex-fruit syndrome. Bananas contain similar proteins to those found in latex, leading to potential allergic reactions in susceptible individuals. Almonds, strawberries, and hazelnuts are not commonly associated with latex cross-sensitivity.
Therefore, the nurse should prioritize assessing the child's potential sensitivity to bananas to ensure proper management and avoid potential allergic reactions.
