Correct Answer: A,B,C,D
Rationale:
The correct answer includes irritability, cough findings at 0800, stridor, and temperature.
- Irritability is consistent with both acute laryngotracheobronchitis and pneumonia due to respiratory distress.
- Cough findings at 0800 are common in both conditions, as cough is a primary symptom.
- Stridor is characteristic of acute laryngotracheobronchitis, caused by inflammation of the upper airway.
- Monitoring temperature is crucial for pneumonia due to potential fever, while it may not be as prominent in acute laryngotracheobronchitis.
Other choices are not included in the correct answer as they are not as specific or indicative of the two conditions.
