At what point in the hospitalization of the pediatric patient should discharge planning and teaching begin?
- A. Post-operatively
- B. Right when the patient is being discharged with the parents and support members present
- C. On the morning that the patient is scheduled to go home
- D. On admission
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Discharge planning should begin on admission to ensure that all necessary teaching and preparations are completed in a timely manner. Starting discharge planning early allows for a comprehensive assessment of the patient's needs, coordination with the healthcare team, and adequate time for patient and family education. Choice A, post-operatively, is too late in the process and may lead to rushed planning. Choice B, right at discharge, may not allow enough time for thorough preparation. Choice C, on the morning of discharge, also does not provide sufficient time for effective planning and education.

- A. Deficient diet
- B. Ingestion of drugs such as chloramphenicol or antiepileptics
- C. Congenital defects
- D. Injury
Correct Answer: B

Acquired aplastic anemia in children is often caused by exposure to certain drugs, such as chloramphenicol or antiepileptics, which can lead to bone marrow failure and a decrease in all types of blood cells. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because aplastic anemia is not commonly caused by deficient diet, congenital defects, or injury in children.
When should the dressing change for a post-op pediatric patient that is expected to be very painful and frightening be performed?
- A. In the patient's room
- B. In the treatment room
- C. After discharge when the patient is at home
- D. In the playroom
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'In the treatment room.' Performing painful procedures in the treatment room helps the child associate their own room with safety and comfort, not pain. Choice A is incorrect because performing the dressing change in the patient's room may create a negative association with their safe space. Choice C is incorrect as it is important to ensure proper wound care and pain management before discharge. Choice D is incorrect as the playroom may not be equipped for a sterile dressing change.
