A nurse is preparing to administer acetaminophen 10/mg/kg PO to a preschool child for fever. The child weighs 22 lb. Available is acetaminophen liquid 160 mg/5 mL. How many mL should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

D. This is the correct action to take. A neurovascular check involves assessing the circulation, sensation, and movement in the affected limb. This check helps monitor for complications such as impaired circulation, nerve damage, or compartment syndrome, which can occur after the application of a plaster cast. Regular neurovascular checks are essential for early detection of any issues and appropriate intervention if necessary.

A. Using a hair dryer on a hot setting can cause burns to the skin under the cast. It can also cause the cast material to heat up and potentially cause discomfort or injury to the patient.

B. It's essential to follow the healthcare provider's instructions regarding weight-bearing restrictions, but completely discouraging ambulation can lead to complications such as muscle atrophy, decreased circulation, and increased risk of blood clots.

C. Keeping the client's leg in a dependent position means positioning it lower than the heart. This can increase swelling and exacerbate pain, potentially leading to complications such as compartment syndrome.

D. A high-pitched cry, often described as a "crying in pain" or "irritable cry," can be a characteristic sign of meningitis in infants. The cry may sound different from the infant's usual cry and may be associated with irritability, discomfort, or pain. It can be indicative of increased intracranial pressure and neurological irritation caused by the inflammation of the meninges.

A. Constipation is not typically associated with meningitis in infants. Meningitis is an inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, which can cause symptoms such as fever, irritability, poor feeding, vomiting, and lethargy.

B. A depressed anterior fontanel (sunken soft spot on the baby's head) is not a typical manifestation of meningitis. Meningitis may cause signs of increased intracranial pressure, such as a bulging fontanel, rather than a depressed fontanel.

C. he presence of the rooting reflex is not specific to meningitis. The rooting reflex is a normal reflex present in infants, where they turn their head toward a stimulus (such as stroking the cheek or corner of the mouth) in search of nourishment (typically the breast or bottle).
