The nurse is discussing car safety with the mother of a 6-year-old child. The child’s mother questions the need for the use of special car seats for her child. What information can be provided to her?

“Car seats are recommended until children are at least 10 years old/

“Your child will be safe in the car using the provided shoulder harness and lap belts/

"At the age of 6 your child should be using a booster seat.'

"Car seats are only recommended until children are 3 years old."

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

Booster seats are recommended for children between the ages of 4 and 8, or until they are 4'9" tall. This is because seat belts are designed for adults and may not properly fit a child's smaller body. A booster seat helps to position the seat belt correctly on the child's body, improving the eﬀectiveness of the seat belt and reducing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

Option a is incorrect because 10 years old is too old to need a car seat. Option b is incorrect because children under the age of 8, or under 4'9" tall, should not use a seat belt alone. Option d is incorrect because car seats are recommended until children are at least 4 years old, not 3.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

During exercise, the heart has to work harder to pump blood and oxygen to the muscles. In patients with stable angina, there is a partial blockage of the coronary arteries, which reduces blood ﬂow and oxygen delivery to the heart muscle. This lack of oxygen to the heart muscles causes chest pain or discomfort, which subsides when the patient stops exercising and is relaxed.

Therefore, it is important for the patient with stable angina to avoid activities that trigger chest pain, take prescribed medications, and make lifestyle modifications to manage their condition.

A. Patient will exchange cigaretes for vaping in 5 days B. Patient will stop smoking cigaretes within 7 days C. Patient will smoke only a few cigaretes each day D. Patient will not smoke cigaretes while wearing oxygen

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

This outcome is the most appropriate because smoking can worsen COPD and lead to further respiratory complications, while oxygen is often used to help patients with COPD breathe more easily. Smoking while wearing oxygen can be very dangerous and increases the risk of fire and explosion. Therefore, the best expected outcome is for the patient to completely avoid smoking while wearing oxygen.

Option a is not a recommended solution since vaping may also worsen COPD symptoms and there is limited evidence of its safety in people with respiratory conditions. Option b is a good outcome, but it may not be achievable in such a short time frame. Option c is not an ideal outcome as even a few cigaretes can cause harm to the respiratory system, exacerbate symptoms, and slow down the healing process.
