Which would the nurse assess in a child diagnosed with osteomyelitis? Select all that apply.

A. "The body's response to gluten causes the intestine to become more porous and hang on to more of the fat-soluble vitamins, leading to vitamin toxicity." This answer is not accurate. The issue in celiac disease is malabsorption, not vitamin toxicity.

B. "The body's response to gluten causes damage to the mucosal cells in the intestines leading to absorption problems."

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder in which the ingestion of gluten (a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye) leads to damage of the mucosal cells in the small intestine. This damage, in turn, can lead to malabsorption of essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and other important components of the diet. It is important for individuals with celiac disease to avoid gluten-containing foods to prevent ongoing damage to the intestinal mucosa and improve nutrient absorption.

C. "The body's response to consumption of anything containing gluten is to create special cells called villi, which leads to more diarrhea." This statement is not accurate. Celiac disease leads to damage to the villi (finger-like projections) in the small intestine, not the creation of special cells. It can lead to diarrhea but is not the primary cause.

D. "The body's response to gluten causes damage to the mucosal cells, leading to malabsorption of water and hard, constipated stools." This response is not accurate. Celiac disease is more commonly associated with diarrhea and malabsorption, not constipation and malabsorption of water.

A. Fever: Osteomyelitis is often associated with fever as it is an infectious process that can cause an elevated body temperature.

B. Unwillingness to move the affected extremity: Children with osteomyelitis may experience pain and discomfort, leading to a reluctance to move the affected limb.

C. A previous closed fracture of an extremity is not typically a direct assessment finding for osteomyelitis. Osteomyelitis is more commonly associated with infections that can spread to the bone, and a previous fracture may not always be present.

D. Redness and swelling at the site: Osteomyelitis can cause local inflammation, leading to redness and swelling at the affected area.

E. Severe pain: Pain is a common symptom of osteomyelitis, and it can be severe, leading to the child's unwillingness to move the affected extremity.
