A nurse is preparing to administer amoxicillin 350 mg PO. The amount available is amoxicillin oral solution 250 mg/5 mL. How many ml. should the nurse administer? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth/whole number. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A. Active psychiatric disorder: The presence of an active psychiatric disorder, such as depression or anxiety, is the most significant risk factor for suicide. Mental health disorders can severely affect an adolescent's emotional and psychological well-being, increasing the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

B. Availability of firearms: While access to firearms increases the risk of successful suicide, it is a secondary risk factor compared to the presence of a psychiatric disorder, which is more directly linked to the development of suicidal ideation.

C. Family conflict: Family conflict is a risk factor for emotional distress and can contribute to suicidal thoughts, but it is less significant than having an active psychiatric disorder, which directly impacts the adolescent's mental health.

D. Homosexuality: While LGBTQ+ youth are at higher risk for suicide due to factors like discrimination and lack of support, the presence of an active psychiatric disorder remains a more critical and direct risk factor for suicide.

A. Obtain a throat culture. Throat cultures are contraindicated in suspected epiglottitis because the procedure can provoke airway obstruction and worsen the condition.

B. Visualize the epiglottis using a tongue depressor. Attempting to visualize the epiglottis can lead to sudden airway obstruction in children with epiglottitis. This is dangerous and should be avoided.

C. Initiate airborne precautions. Droplet precautions, not airborne, are necessary for epiglottitis because it is typically caused by bacteria that spread through respiratory droplets.

D. Prepare the child for a neck X-ray and possible tracheostomy. A neck X-ray can help diagnose epiglottitis by showing the characteristic "thumb sign." Immediate airway management, including preparation for a potential tracheostomy, is crucial due to the risk of sudden airway obstruction.
