The nurse is questioning the parents of a 2-year-old child to obtain a functional history. Which topics might the nurse include? Select all that apply.

A. The child performs his bedtime preparations autonomously: While autonomy is a key aspect of development, it doesn't directly align with Erikson's stage of industry versus inferiority, which focuses more on the child's sense of competence and mastery of tasks.

B. The child is developing a consciencE. Conscience development is more closely associated with Erikson's previous stage of initiative versus guilt, where children begin to internalize societal standards and expectations.

C. The child signs up for after-school activities: Engaging in after-school activities involves

actively seeking out opportunities for skill development and social interaction, demonstrating the child's initiative and industry.

D. The child becomes aware of the opposite sex: Awareness of gender differences typically

emerges during middle childhood but is not directly related to Erikson's stage of industry versus inferiority, which emphasizes the development of a sense of competence and productivity in

mastering tasks.

A. Epiglottitis

Epiglottitis typically presents with rapid onset of severe sore throat, high fever, difficulty swallowing, and drooling due to inflammation and swelling of the epiglottis. It is a medical emergency requiring immediate intervention but is less likely to present with the described symptoms.

B. Bronchiolitis

Bronchiolitis commonly occurs in infants and young children, often during the winter months. It is characterized by symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, nasal congestion, fever, and

respiratory distress. The described symptoms, including coughing, nasal congestion, and intermittent fever, align with bronchiolitis.

C. Influenza

Influenza typically presents with symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, and fatigue. While coughing and fever are common symptoms of influenza, the presence of apneic spells is less typical of influenza and more indicative of lower respiratory tract infections like bronchiolitis.

D. Croup

Croup is characterized by a barking cough, hoarseness, and respiratory distress often accompanied by stridor. While croup shares some symptoms with bronchiolitis, such as coughing, the absence of stridor in the description suggests bronchiolitis as a more likely diagnosis.
