A nurse is preparing to percuss an adolescent's chest and abdomen. Which of the following areas should the nurse expect to hear a dull sound? (You will find hot spots to select in the artwork below. Select only the hot spot that corresponds to your answer.)

Rationale:

A) Placing the child in a forward-facing car seat before the appropriate age and size increases the risk of injury.

B) Placing the child in the front seat, even in a rear-facing car seat, is not recommended due to the risk of airbag deployment.

C) Booster seats are used for older children who have outgrown their forward-facing car seats, but are not yet big enough to use the seat belt properly. Booster seats should be used until the child is at least 4 feet 9 inches tall and between 8 and 12 years old.

D) Placing the child in a rear-facing car seat until age 2 is recommended by safety guidelines to provide optimal protection for the child's head, neck, and spine.

Rationale:

A) Clotrimazole troches do not require refrigeration after each use.

B) Clotrimazole troches are meant to be dissolved slowly in the mouth over a period of time, typically around 15 to 30 minutes, for optimal effectiveness.

C) Crushing the troche and mixing it with applesauce may alter the medication's effectiveness and is not recommended.

D) White patches appearing in the mouth may indicate the persistence or worsening of oral candidiasis, and stopping the medication would be inappropriate without consulting a healthcare provider.
