A nurse is caring for a 12-month-old toddler who is hospitalized and confined to a room with contact precautions in place. Which of the following toys should the nurse recommend in orderto meet the developmental needs of the client?

A. Absorption of drugs administered by subcutaneous injection is increaseD. Subcutaneous absorption can vary based on factors such as blood flow and tissue characteristics, but it is generally slower and more variable compared to intramuscular absorption.

B. Absorption of intramuscularly administered drugs is fairly constant: Intramuscular absorption tends to be more consistent compared to subcutaneous absorption. However, absorption rates can still be affected by factors such as muscle mass and blood flow.

C. Topical drugs are absorbed more quickly in young children than adults: Topical drug absorption can be influenced by factors such as skin thickness and permeability, but absorption rates may not necessarily be faster in young children compared to adults.

D. Oral drugs are absorbed more quickly in children than adults: This statement is generally incorrect. While gastrointestinal transit time may be faster in children, other factors such as

gastric pH and enzymatic activity can affect oral drug absorption, and absorption rates may not always be faster in children compared to adults.

A. Substituting cow's milk if breast milk is not availablE. Cow's milk is not recommended as a substitute for breast milk or infant formula for infants under 12 months old due to its low iron content and potential for causing gastrointestinal irritation.

B. Advising fluid intake per feeding of 5 or 6 ounces: The appropriate fluid intake for a 2-week- old infant is typically guided by feeding cues and may vary from feeding to feeding. Providing a specific volume of fluid per feeding may not be appropriate, as infants should be fed on demand.

C. Advocating iron supplements with bottle-feeding: Iron supplementation is generally recommended for breastfed infants starting at around 4 months of age, but it is not typically necessary for formula-fed infants during the first few weeks of life. Additionally, iron

supplementation should be prescribed and monitored by a healthcare provider rather than advocated as a general guideline.

D. Discouraging the addition of fruit juice to the diet: This is the most effective anticipatory guidance because it aligns with current recommendations from pediatric healthcare

organizations. Fruit juice offers little nutritional value for infants and can contribute to dental caries and excessive calorie intake. It is generally recommended to avoid giving fruit juice to infants under 1 year old.
