Upper extremity fractures in children commonly occur as a result of falls. Children are more prone to falls due to their developing motor skills, balance, and coordination. They may fall from playground equipment, bicycles, or simply while running or playing.

While sports injuries (Option A) can also lead to upper extremity fractures, falls are generally the most common cause in children.

Physical abuse (Option B) is an unfortunate possibility in some cases, but it is important to approach the assessment without assuming abuse as the cause without appropriate evidence or disclosure.

Upper extremity fractures resulting from automobile crashes (Option D) are less common in children compared to falls or sports injuries, although they can occur in severe accidents.

It is always important for the nurse to assess the child's history, obtain a detailed account of the injury, and consider any additional signs or indications that may suggest non-accidental trauma if appropriate.

The assessment finding that the nurse should expect in an infant with Hirschsprung disease is option A, constipation with the passage of foul-smelling, ribbon-like stools. Hirschsprung disease is a congenital condition characterized by the absence of ganglion cells in the distal part of the colon, leading to functional obstruction. The affected segment of the colon lacks the normal peristaltic movements, resulting in an accumulation of faecal matter. The stools passed by infants with Hirschsprung disease are often constipated, and the narrow, ribbon- like appearance is a result of the narrowed segment of the colon.

diarrhea (option B) is incorrect because it, is not typically associated with Hirschsprung disease. Instead, the condition presents with constipation due to the obstructed bowel.

foul-smelling, fatty stools in (option C) is incorrect because it, is not characteristic of Hirschsprung disease. This finding may be associated with malabsorption disorders such as cystic fibrosis or celiac disease, but not specifically with Hirschsprung disease.

"currant jelly" stools in (option D) is incorrect because it, is a term commonly used to describe the stools seen in intussusception, which is a different condition involving the telescoping of one segment of the bowel into another. It is not an expected finding in Hirschsprung disease.
