The healthcare provider prescribes the antibiotic cefdinir 300 mg by mouth every 12 hours for a client with a postoperative wound infection.
Which foods should the nurse encourage this client to eat?

Choice A rationale:

CP being one of the most common permanent physical disabilities in children is a general statement but does not directly address the mother's question about the progression of her child's impaired movements. It does not provide an explanation for the potential course of CP.

Choice B rationale:

Brain damage with CP is not progressive but does have a variable course. This response provides the best explanation to the mother's question. CP is a static neurological condition, which means that the initial brain injury that led to CP does not worsen over time. However, the functional abilities and impairments of a child with CP can vary widely and may change as the child grows and develops. Some children may improve with therapy and interventions, while others may have relatively stable impairments.

Choice C rationale:

Severe motor dysfunction determines the extent of successful habilitation is not entirely accurate. While the severity of motor dysfunction does play a role in the challenges a child with CP may face, it does not solely determine the extent of successful habilitation. Many factors, including early intervention, therapy, and individualized care, can influence a child's progress and potential for improvement.

Choice D rationale:

Continued development of the brain lesion determines the child's outcome is not an accurate statement. CP is primarily caused by non-pro

Choice A rationale:

While it’s important to monitor for any adverse reactions following a vaccination, not all fevers are serious. Mild fever can be a common side effect of vaccinations and is usually not a cause for concern. However, if the child develops a high fever, or if the fever is accompanied by other severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing or extreme lethargy, it should be reported to a healthcare provider immediately.

Choice B rationale:

There is no need to keep the child home from daycare following the Hib vaccine unless the child is feeling unwell or has other symptoms that warrant staying home. The Hib vaccine is not a live vaccine, so the child cannot transmit the vaccine strain to others.

Choice C rationale:

Applying a cool pack to the injection site can help reduce discomfort or swelling that may occur after the vaccination. This is a safe and effective method for managing minor side effects of vaccinations.

Choice D rationale:

Aspirin should not be given to children due to the risk of Reye’s syndrome, a rare but serious condition that can affect the liver and brain. Instead, over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be used to help manage any pain or fever following the vaccination, if approved by a healthcare provider. Always follow the dosing instructions on the package and consult with a healthcare provider if unsure.
