Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

A. Using a communication board is appropriate for clients with speech or language impairments, not visual impairment.
B. Collaborating with a speech therapist is indicated for speech or communication disorders, not vision loss.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Widening pulse pressure. This is typically associated with conditions like increased intracranial pressure or severe aortic regurgitation, not cardiac tamponade. Tamponade usually results in narrowed pulse pressure.
B. Coarse lung sounds. These may indicate fluid overload or pulmonary congestion, but they are not specific to cardiac tamponade and occur later or in different conditions.
C. Muffled heart sounds. This is a classic early sign of cardiac tamponade, caused by fluid accumulation in the pericardial sac, which dampens heart sounds on auscultation. It is part of Beck’s triad (muffled heart sounds, hypotension, and jugular vein distention).
D. Decreased jugular vein distention. In cardiac tamponade, jugular vein distention increases due to impaired venous return to the heart. Decreased JVD would be an unexpected finding in this condition.

A. Place the booster seat where there is an air bag in the vehicle. B. Avoid using the lap shoulder belt when the child is in a booster seat. C. Use a no-back booster seat if the vehicle seat has a headrest. D. Keep the booster seat rear-facing until the child weighs at least 16 kg (35.3 lb

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Place the booster seat where there is an air bag in the vehicle. Booster seats should never be placed in front of an active air bag, especially in the front seat. Air bags can cause serious injury or death to young children in the event of deployment.
B. Avoid using the lap shoulder belt when the child is in a booster seat. A lap-shoulder belt is required for proper use of a booster seat. The shoulder belt helps distribute force across the child’s chest and shoulders in a crash. Using only a lap belt increases the risk of serious abdominal and spinal injuries.
C. Use a no-back booster seat if the vehicle seat has a headrest. This is correct and safe. A no-back booster is appropriate as long as the vehicle seat has a high back or headrest that provides support for the child’s neck and head, ensuring proper positioning of the seat belt.
D. Keep the booster seat rear-facing until the child weighs at least 16 kg (35.3 lb). Booster seats are designed for forward-facing children who have outgrown a forward-facing harness seat, typically around 4 years of age and 40 pounds. Rear-facing seats are used prior to booster seats, for infants and toddlers, not for booster seat-age children.
