A nurse is preparing to administer immunizations to a child who has an allergy to eggs. The nurse should know that an allergy to eggs is a contraindication for which of the following immunizations?

Choice A rationale
While it’s true that bone marrow can be lost through a fracture, this is not specific to fractures of the epiphyseal plate.
Choice B rationale
The healing time for fractures in children and adults can vary depending on many factors, but it’s not accurate to say that fractures in children take longer to heal than fractures in adults.
Choice C rationale
Normal bone growth can indeed be affected by a fracture of the epiphyseal plate. The epiphyseal plate, or growth plate, is the area of growing tissue near the ends of the long bones in children and adolescents. When a fracture occurs at the epiphyseal plate, it can disrupt the normal growth of the bone and lead to deformities.
Choice D rationale
While calcium is important for bone health, increasing a child’s calcium intake to 3,000 milligrams daily is not typically recommended as part of the treatment or management of a fracture.

Choice A rationale
Rapid respirations are not typically a manifestation of hypoglycemia. They are more commonly associated with conditions that cause metabolic acidosis, such as diabetic ketoacidosis.
Choice B rationale
Diminished reflexes are not a typical manifestation of hypoglycemia. They may be seen in conditions affecting the nervous system.
Choice C rationale
Acetone breath is not a manifestation of hypoglycemia. It is a sign of ketoacidosis, which is a complication of hyperglycemia, not hypoglycemia.
Choice D rationale
Diaphoresis, or sweating, is a common symptom of hypoglycemia. The body produces sweat as part of the sympathetic nervous system’s response to hypoglycemia.
