A child who weighs 10 kg is to receive Motrin 8 mg/kg po q4h prn for pain. The label reads 100 mg/5 mL. How much will you administer?
- A. 4 mL
- B. 2 mL
- C. 5 mL
- D. 3 mL
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To calculate the dosage, multiply the child's weight (10 kg) by the dosage (8 mg/kg) which equals 80 mg. Since the concentration is 100 mg/5 mL, to find out how much to administer, you need to determine how many 5 mL doses are in 80 mg. It will be 80 mg · 100 mg * 5 mL = 4 mL. Therefore, the correct answer is 4 mL. Choice B, 2 mL, is incorrect because it does not account for the correct dosage calculation. Choice C, 5 mL, is incorrect as it does not consider the dosage based on the child's weight. Choice D, 3 mL, is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate dosage calculation.

What changes could the school nurse implement at the school to help reduce students' risk for developing type 2 diabetes?
- A. Increase the amount of daily physical activity.
- B. Decrease the amount of daily physical activity.
- C. Test each child's urine monthly.
- D. Teach parents to avoid administering aspirin to their child.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Increasing physical activity helps improve insulin sensitivity and can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in children. Regular physical activity is a key component in managing weight and reducing the risk of chronic diseases. Decreasing physical activity (Choice B) would not be beneficial in reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Testing each child's urine monthly (Choice C) is not directly related to preventing type 2 diabetes. Teaching parents to avoid administering aspirin to their child (Choice D) is important for Reye's syndrome prevention but not directly related to reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
A mother reports to the nurse that her 6-year-old child is highly active, irritable, irregular in habits, and adapts slowly to new routines, people, or situations. Which pattern of temperament would best describe the child?
- A. The 'easy' child
- B. The 'difficult' child
- C. The 'slow-to-warm-up' child
- D. The 'fast-to-warm-up' child
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The 'difficult' child is the best way to describe the child in this scenario. This temperament is characterized by high activity levels, irritability, irregular habits, and difficulty adapting to changes. Choice A, the 'easy' child, is known for being generally positive and adaptable. Choice C, the 'slow-to-warm-up' child, typically needs time to adapt to new situations but is not necessarily highly active or irritable. Choice D, the 'fast-to-warm-up' child, adapts quickly to new situations, which contrasts with the child's slow adaptation mentioned in the scenario.
