Extract:

6-year-old child who has bacterial meningitis.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is planning care for a 6-year-old child who has bacterial meningitis. Which of the following nursing interventions is unnecessary in the client's plan of care?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Measuring head circumference every shift is unnecessary in the care of a 6-year-old child with bacterial meningitis. The rationale is that head circumference monitoring is more relevant for infants and young children to assess for abnormal brain growth, which is not a priority concern in this case.

B: Implementing seizure precautions is important as bacterial meningitis can lead to seizures.
C: Admitting the client to a private room helps prevent the spread of infection.
D: Placing the client in a semi-Fowler's position helps reduce intracranial pressure.

Therefore, monitoring head circumference unnecessarily wastes time and resources in this scenario.
