The nurse is assessing a 2-week-old male infant in a community health clinic and notes that his sclera appear slightly yellow. Additionally, urine in his diaper appears tea-colored.

This child should receive follow- up assessment for what condition?

The adolescent client's symptoms of localized pain, swelling, and tenderness, particularly at night, are suggestive of a malignancy such as osteosarcoma, which is the most common primary bone tumor in children and adolescents.

Radial ossification in the soft tissues is a characteristic finding in osteosarcoma and is indicative of bone production by malignant cells. Other imaging modalities, such as X-rays, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), may also reveal osteolytic or osteoblastic lesions in the bone.

Growing pains are a common, benign condition that occur in children and do not typically present with the

symptoms described in the case scenario.

Rhabdomyolysis is a medical emergency that involves the breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue and release of muscle fiber contents into the bloodstream. It can present with muscle pain, swelling, and tenderness, but typically occurs as a result of injury, infection, or drug toxicity.

Hemosiderosis is a rare condition characterized by the accumulation of iron in various tissues, including the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. It may present with symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and abdominal pain, but is not typically associated with the symptoms and imaging findings described in the case scenario.

Therefore, the nurse should consider osteosarcoma as the probable cause of the adolescent client's symptoms and imaging findings, and should collaborate with the healthcare team to develop a plan of care for diagnosis and treatment.

The nurse should reassure the parents that febrile seizures typically decrease in frequency as the child grows older. Most children outgrow febrile seizures by the age of 5 years.

Ibuprofen is not typically used prophylactically to prevent febrile seizures.

Providing the child with a sponge bath for temperatures over 100.6°F (38.1° C) can help to lower the fever, but it will not necessarily prevent febrile seizures.

Avoiding excessive visual stimuli is not necessary for children with febrile seizures, as this type of seizure is triggered by a fever rather than visual stimuli.
