Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing teaching to the parents of a child who has streptococcal pharyngitis about ways to prevent disease transmission. Which of the following responses by the parents indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. Discarding the child's toothbrush and buying a new one is essential in preventing the spread of streptococcal pharyngitis. Streptococcal bacteria can survive on surfaces like toothbrushes, so replacing the toothbrush helps prevent reinfection.
A: Taking the child's temperature every 4 hours is unrelated to preventing disease transmission.
B: Encouraging the child to drink fluids is important for hydration but does not directly prevent disease transmission.
C: Giving Tylenol for pain management is helpful for symptom relief but does not address disease transmission.
In summary, choice D is correct because it directly addresses the prevention of disease transmission by eliminating a potential source of reinfection.
Choices A, B, and C do not specifically target disease transmission.
