A nurse is providing teaching to the parent of a 6-month-old infant who is teething and having difficulty sleeping. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

A.

A. Burning sensation is a potential adverse effect of permethrin 5% cream application. It may cause transient discomfort or irritation at the site of application.

B. Discoloration is not a common adverse effect associated with permethrin cream application.

C. Photosensitivity is not typically associated with the use of permethrin cream.

D. Alopecia (hair loss) is not a common adverse effect of permethrin cream application.

A. "My stoma size will stay the same, even after it has healed." - This statement is incorrect.

Stoma size can change during the healing process and may continue to evolve over time due to factors such as swelling, retraction, or prolapse.

B. "My stoma will drain liquid fluid continuously." - This statement is correct. In an ileostomy, the stoma typically drains liquid stool continuously due to the absence of the colon, which is responsible for absorbing water from the feces.

C. "I will change my pouch system every 2 weeks." - This statement is incorrect. The frequency of pouch changes depends on individual factors such as stoma size, type of pouching system used, and personal preference. It is essential to teach clients to change their pouch when needed, which may vary from a few days to a week or longer.

D. "I will ensure that my medications are enteric coated." - This statement is unrelated to ileostomy care. Enteric-coated medications are designed to resist dissolution in the acidic environment of the stomach and instead dissolve in the alkaline environment of the small intestine. It is not directly relevant to stoma care.
