What does the nurse learn that predisposes the adolescent to feel an increased need for sleep?

The best response for the nurse to give a parent regarding contacting the physician about an
infant with diarrhea is option B. In infants, dehydration can occur quickly, and a decrease in
urine output is an important indicator of fluid imbalance. Not having a wet diaper for 6 hours
can be a sign of inadequate fluid intake or excessive fluid loss, which warrants contacting the
paediatrician for further assessment and guidance.
"Call the doctor immediately if the infant has a temperature greater than 100° F,"in (option
A) is incorrect because it is not directly related to the concern of diarrhea. While a high fever
can be a sign of an underlying infection, it is not the primary concern in this case.
"The paediatrician should be contacted if the infant has two loose stools in an 8-hour
period,” in (option B) is incorrect because it may not necessarily require immediate medical
attention. While increased frequency of stools can be concerning, the absence of urine output
is a more critical indicator of dehydration.
"Notify the paediatrician if the infant naps more than 2 hours," in (option D) is incorrect
because it is unrelated to the concern of diarrhea and dehydration.

Precocious puberty is defined as the onset of puberty before the age of 8 in girls and before the age of 9 in boys. However, it is important to note that the exact age at which puberty is considered precocious can vary slightly based on different guidelines and individual variations.

Boys: 11 years; girls: 9 years in (option A) is incorrect because it, is close to the general age range, but it is slightly earlier than what is commonly considered precocious puberty.

Boys: 10 years; girls: 9 1/2 years in (option C) is incorrect because it, is also close to the general age range, but it is not as commonly recognized as the age for precocious puberty.

Boys: 9 years; girls: 8 years in (option D) is incorrect because it, is significantly earlier than the usual age for precocious puberty. Puberty occurring at this age would be considered very early and may warrant further evaluation.
