What interventions would the nurse implement to maintain the skin integrity of a preterm infant born at 30 weeks?
- A. Avoid using alkaline-based soap.
- B. Bathe the infant with sterile water.
- C. Cleanse skin with a gentle alkaline-based soap and water.
- D. Thoroughly rinse skin with plain water after bathing in a mild hexachlorophene solution.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To maintain the skin integrity of a preterm infant born at 30 weeks, the nurse should bathe the infant with sterile water no more than two or three times per week. The eyes, oral and diaper areas, and pressure points should be cleansed daily. It is essential to avoid using alkaline-based soaps as they might destroy the 'acid mantle' of the skin. Additionally, cleansing with mild solutions and rinsing thoroughly with plain water is recommended to prevent skin irritation and maintain skin integrity. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the best practices for preterm infant skin care.

The nurse is caring for a 2-year-old child in the postoperative period. Which pain assessment tool is most appropriate for assessing pain intensity in a 2-year-old?
- A. Poker chip tool
- B. Oucher Scale
- C. Faces Pain Rating Scale
- D. FLACC Behavioral Pain Assessment Scale
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The FLACC Behavioral Pain Assessment Scale is the most suitable tool for assessing pain in 2-year-old children postoperatively. It assesses pain by evaluating facial expression, leg movement, activity, cry, and consolability, making it effective for non-verbal children. The Poker chip tool is not appropriate for this age group. The Oucher Scale and Faces Pain Rating Scale are more suitable for older children who can self-report pain levels.
