A nurse is caring for a child with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. What clinical findings does the nurse anticipate when assessing the child? Select all that apply.

A. Identity versus role confusion is typically associated with adolescence.

B. Autonomy versus a sense of shame and doubt is associated with the toddler years.

C. Initiative versus guilt.

Erikson's theory of psychosocial development includes various stages, and each stage corresponds to a specific age range and a unique psychosocial challenge. The preschool age group, typically from around 3 to 6 years old, is associated with the stage of "Initiative versus guilt." During this stage, children begin to explore their environment, take on new challenges, and start to develop a sense of initiative. They seek to make choices, set goals, and make plans, which is a crucial aspect of their development during the preschool years. However, if their efforts are met with excessive criticism or control, they may develop feelings of guilt.

D. Trust versus mistrust is associated with infancy.

A.Pyloric stenosis is a condition where there's narrowing of the opening between the stomach and the small intestine. It is not related to inadequate motility of the intestine.

B.Enterocolitis refers to inflammation of the small intestine and colon. While this can cause obstruction in some cases, it's not the primary cause of inadequate motility as seen in the question.

C.Encopresis is the voluntary or involuntary passage of feces outside the toilet in children who should be toilet trained. It is not a cause of mechanical intestinal obstruction.

D. Hirschsprung's disease is a congenital disorder where there is inadequate motility in part of the intestine, leading to mechanical obstruction. It usually affects the colon and is due to the absence of ganglion cells in the affected segment of the bowel.

So, Hirschsprung's disease is the specific condition that leads to inadequate motility and mechanical obstruction of part of the intestine in infants.
