A nurse is developing a plan of care for a 4-year-old child who has hemophilia and is experiencing acute hemarthrosis. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan?

A. "You should give your child aspirin if they report pain at the site."

This statement is incorrect. Aspirin is a blood-thinning medication that can increase the risk of bleeding, which is particularly concerning after a cardiac catheterization procedure. It is not recommended to administer aspirin unless specifically instructed by the healthcare provider.

B. "You can remove the pressure dressing 8 hours after the procedure."

This statement is incorrect. The pressure dressing applied after a cardiac catheterization procedure is typically left in place for a specific period of time, as determined by the healthcare provider. The dressing helps prevent bleeding at the insertion site. It is essential to follow the healthcare provider's instructions regarding the timing of dressing removal.

C. "Your child can soak in the bathtub 24 hours after the procedure."

This statement is incorrect. Immersing the insertion site in water, such as soaking in a bathtub, should be avoided for a certain period after a cardiac catheterization procedure to reduce the risk of infection. The healthcare provider will provide specific instructions on when it is safe for the child to bathe or shower.

D. "Your child should avoid strenuous physical activities for several days."

This statement is correct. After a cardiac catheterization procedure, it is typically recommended to avoid strenuous physical activities for a specified period to allow the insertion site to heal properly and reduce the risk of complications such as bleeding or hematoma formation.

A. Visual acuity 20/30 bilaterally: Visual acuity of 20/30 bilaterally indicates relatively good vision in both eyes, but it does not necessarily indicate strabismus. Strabismus is related to eye alignment rather than visual acuity.

B. Peripheral vision 70° downward: Peripheral vision refers to the ability to see objects outside the direct line of vision. While changes in peripheral vision can occur in various eye conditions, such as glaucoma, it is not specific to strabismus.

C. Movement of the uncovered eye during a cover test: This is the correct option. During a cover test, one eye is covered while the other eye fixates on an object. If the uncovered eye moves to try to align with the covered eye, it may indicate strabismus or a misalignment of the eyes.

D. Light reflects symmetrically within each pupil during a corneal light reflex test: A corneal light reflex test assesses the alignment of the eyes by observing the reflection of light on the corneas. While asymmetry in the corneal light reflex can indicate strabismus, the description provided in this option suggests that the light reflects symmetrically within each pupil, which is a normal finding.
