What factors are important in determining the level of hypoxemia that the child may have experienced during the submersion? Select all that apply.

A.Correct- The nurse should provide the parents with the phone numbers and websites of local organizations that offer support and counseling for families who have experienced a traumatic event. The nurse should also encourage the parents to seek professional help if they feel overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious.

B.Correct- Educating the parents about pool safety is crucial to prevent future accidents. This information can include guidelines for supervision, barriers, and measures to prevent drowning incidents.

C.Incorrect- While it's important for parents to be aware of the seriousness of child neglect, including this information in pre-discharge education might not be the most appropriate time, especially if the child is showing only minor signs of impact from the incident. This could increase their guilt and distress and damage the therapeutic relationship. The nurse should focus on providing support and education, not judgment or punishment.

D.Correct- The nurse should advise the parents to schedule a follow-up visit with the child's pediatrician within a week of discharge. The nurse should explain that the pediatrician will monitor the child's recovery and check for any signs of complications, such as brain damage, infection, or lung injury.

F. Correct- Assessing the parent's coping skills can help identify if they are dealing with any emotional stress or trauma related to the incident. Providing appropriate support or referrals if needed can be beneficial.

As people age, the turnover of skin cells decreases, resulting in slower wound healing. This can prolong the healing process and increase the risk of complications.

The immune system's function, including T-cell function, tends to decline with age.

T-cells play a crucial role in the immune response and wound healing. Decreased T-cell function can impair the body's ability to fight infection and promote efficient healing.

With aging, there is a natural loss of subcutaneous fat, which can affect wound healing. Subcutaneous fat provides padding and protection to the underlying tissues, and its reduction can increase the risk of tissue damage and delays in healing.

Insulin resistance, pigmentation changes, and polypharmacy are not directly age-related factors that impact wound healing. Insulin resistance is a condition related to impaired glucose metabolism and can affect wound healing in individuals with diabetes or other metabolic disorders, but it is not necessarily an age-related factor. Pigmentation changes and polypharmacy (the use of multiple medications) may be associated with aging but do not directly affect the physiological processes involved in wound healing.
