A nurse is collecting data from an 18-month-old toddler at a well-child visit.

Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

c. The bedroom extension cord is placed under a heavy nightstand.

The nurse should intervene and address the placement of the bedroom extension cord under a heavy nightstand. This poses a safety hazard as it increases the risk of electrical fire or tripping. The nurse shouldmeducate the client about the importance of using proper outlets and avoiding the use of extension cords in general, especially when they are hidden under heavy furniture.

Options a, b, and d do not require immediate intervention by the nurse:

a. The television set turned to a loud volume can be addressed by educating the client about the potential risks of prolonged exposure to loud noises and providing guidance on appropriate volume levels.

b. The presence of low chairs with no armrests in the dining room may not necessarily require immediate intervention unless there are specific safety concerns related to the client's mobility or balance. The nurse may provide general recommendations for safer seating options, especially if the client is at risk of falls or has difficulty getting up from low chairs.

d. The presence of wall-to-wall carpeting in the living room is a common feature in many homes and does not necessarily pose a safety hazard. However, the nurse may discuss general home safety measures, such as keeping the carpet clean and free of tripping hazards, especially for clients with mobility issues.

Yogurt is a beneficial food for individuals with IBS for several reasons: Yogurt contains live beneficial bacteria, known as probiotics, which can help regulate the balance of gut bacteria. Probiotics may improve digestive health and reduce symptoms such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea in some individuals with IBS. Yogurt is a good source of calcium, which is an essential nutrient for overall health and plays a role in maintaining normal digestive function.

Ice cream is not typically recommended for individuals with IBS. It contains high amounts of fat and lactose, which can worsen symptoms such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea in some individuals with IBS. Moreover, some people with IBS may be sensitive to dairy products.

Honey is generally well-tolerated by individuals with IBS. However, it does not offer specific benefits for managing IBS symptoms. Its inclusion in the diet would depend on individual preferences and tolerances.

Watermelon is a low-FODMAP fruit, which means it is generally well-tolerated by individuals with IBS. It can be a refreshing and hydrating option. However, its inclusion in the diet would depend on individual preferences and tolerances.
