A nurse is caring for a child who has influenza. The nurse should identify which of the following statements by the parent indicates the child has an increased risk for Reye syndrome.

Choice A: Iron deficiency anemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough iron to produce hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen in the blood. Toddlers who drink too much milk and eat too few solid foods may not get enough iron from their diet, as milk is a poor source of iron. Iron deficiency anemia can cause fatigue, weakness, pale skin, and increased susceptibility to infections.

Choice B: Diabetes mellitus is a condition in which the body does not produce enough insulin or use it properly, resulting in high blood glucose levels. Toddlers who drink too much milk and eat too few solid foods are not at increased risk for diabetes mellitus, as milk does not contain glucose and does not affect insulin secretion or action.

Choice C: Obesity is a condition in which the body has excess fat that can impair health and increase the risk of chronic diseases. Toddlers who drink too much milk and eat too few solid foods may be at risk for obesity, as milk is high in calories and fat and can displace other nutritious foods from their diet. However, obesity is not a disorder but a risk factor for other disorders.

Choice D: Rickets is a condition in which the bones become soft and weak due to a lack of vitamin D or calcium. Toddlers who drink too much milk and eat too few solid foods are not at risk for rickets, as milk is a good source of vitamin D and calcium and can prevent rickets.

Choice A: Improving the client's school attendance skills is not the priority goal for a child who has hemiplegic cerebral palsy, which is a condition that affects one side of the body and causes muscle weakness, spasticity, and impaired coordination.

Choice C: Modifying the environment for optimal safety and mobility is the priority goal for a child who has hemiplegic cerebral palsy, which is a condition that affects one side of the body and causes muscle weakness, spasticity, and impaired coordination. Modifying the environment for optimal safety and mobility can prevent falls, injuries, or complications and promote independence and function. The nurse should include interventions such as removing clutter, securing rugs, installing grab bars, providing adaptive equipment, and arranging furniture.

Choice D: Providing counseling services for the parents is not the priority goal for a child who has hemiplegic cerebral palsy, which is a condition that affects one side of the body and causes muscle weakness, spasticity, and impaired coordination.
