A nurse is assessing an 11-month-old infant. Which of the following manifestations is associated with a CNS infection?

Oliguria.

Jaundice.

Bulging fontanel.

Negative Brudzinski sign.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

A bulging fontanel is a manifestation associated with a CNS infection in an 11- month-old infant.
A bulging fontanel can be a sign of increased intracranial pressure, which can
occur with meningitis or encephalitis, both of which are types of CNS infections.
Choice A is incorrect because oliguria, or decreased urine output, is not typically associated with a CNS infection.
Choice B is incorrect because jaundice, or yellowing of the skin and eyes, is not typically associated with a CNS infection.
Choice D is incorrect because a negative Brudzinski sign would indicate that there is no neck stiﬀness, which would be an unlikely ﬁnding in a CNS infection.

Choice B is not an answer because chelation therapy with deferoxamine is used to treat iron poisoning, not acetylsalicylic acid overdose.
Choice D is not an answer because inducing vomiting with syrup of ipecac is no longer recommended for the treatment of poisoning due to the potential for harm and lack of evidence of beneﬁt.

A. "Encourage your child to avoid sharing hats with other children.". B. "Lice can jump from one child to another.". C. "Live lice can survive for 2 weeks away from the host.". D. "Washing your child's hair daily will prevent lice.".

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Head lice are spread most commonly by direct head-to-head (hair-to-hair) contact.
However, much less frequently they are spread by sharing clothing or belongings onto which lice have crawled or nits attached to shed hairs may have fallen.
Choice B is not correct because lice cannot jump from one child to another. Choice C is not correct because live lice survive less than 1-2 days if they fall oﬀ a
person and cannot feed.
Choice D is not correct because washing your child’s hair daily will not prevent lice.
