An 8 year child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia receiving chemotherapy through a central venous access device.

Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the discharge plan with the family of an 8 year child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who is receiving chemotherapy through a central venous access device. Which statement by the parent indicates the need for further teaching?

A. I will keep a written document of the treatment plan B. I will notify my provider on the next business day if my child has a sore throat C. I will use acetominophen if my child needs an analgesic for pain D. I will keep a written list of all my child's medical appointments

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because notifying the provider only on the next business day if the child has a sore throat could be dangerous for a child undergoing chemotherapy with a central venous access device. Infections are a significant risk with these devices, and prompt action is crucial to prevent complications. The parent should be instructed to notify the healthcare provider immediately if the child experiences any signs of infection, such as a sore throat. Keeping a written document of the treatment plan (
A), using acetaminophen for pain (
C), and keeping a list of medical appointments (
D) are all appropriate actions to ensure the child's well-being and follow-up care.
