A school nurse is screening children for scoliosis. Which assessment findings should the nurse expect to observe for scoliosis?

The correct answer is choice B. First stage.

Choice A rationale:

There is no fourth stage of Lyme disease. Lyme disease typically progresses through three stages: early localized, early disseminated, and late disseminated. The symptoms mentioned in the question are more indicative of earlier stages of the disease.

Choice B rationale:

The child is likely exhibiting symptoms of the first stage of Lyme disease, known as early localized Lyme disease. This stage is characterized by the appearance of small annular (circular) lesions known as erythema migrans. These lesions are often red and have a clear center, resembling a "bull's-eye" pattern. This stage occurs within days to weeks after a tick bite and is usually accompanied by flu-like symptoms.

Choice C rationale:

There is no third stage of Lyme disease. The third stage is considered the late disseminated stage, which occurs months to years after the initial infection. It typically involves more severe symptoms, such as arthritis, neurological issues, and cardiac abnormalities.

Choice D rationale:

There is no second stage of Lyme disease. The second stage is the early disseminated stage, which occurs weeks to a few months after the tick bite. It involves the spread of the bacteria to other parts of the body, leading to symptoms such as multiple erythema migrans lesions, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, and muscle and joint pain.

Step 1: Calculate the total mg per dose. 325 mg × 2 tablets = 650 mg

Step 2: Calculate the number of doses in 24 hours. 24 hours ÷ 6 hours = 4 doses

Step 3: Calculate the total mg in 24 hours. 650 mg × 4 doses = 2600 mg

Step 4: Convert mg to grams. 2600 mg ÷ 1000 = 2.6

Answer: 2.6
