The nurse is preparing to care for a child with a diagnosis of intussusception. The nurse reviews the child's record and expects to note which sign of this disorder documented?

A. "All recently used clothing, bedding, and towels must be washed in hot water."
Incorrect: While washing recently used clothing, bedding, and towels in hot water can help in controlling lice, this statement alone doesn't ensure complete eradication of lice or nits.
B. "My child must be free from nits before returning to school."
Correct Answer: This statement shows an understanding that children should be free from nits (lice eggs) before returning to school. Many schools have "no-nit" policies, requiring that children be free from both live lice and nits before re-entry.
C. "Toys that can't be dry cleaned or washed must be thrown out."
Incorrect: It's not necessary to throw out toys that cannot be cleaned. Lice cannot survive off the scalp for more than a day or two. Items that cannot be washed can be sealed in a plastic bag for two weeks to ensure any potential lice or nits die off.
D. "We will treat all the family members to be on the safe side."
Incorrect: Treating all family members is a common but not strictly necessary practice unless others show symptoms or evidence of head lice. It's recommended to focus treatment on those with live lice or nits.

A. "Has the child had any difficulty swallowing food?"
Explanation:
Cleft palate repair can impact various aspects of a child's development, and one potential long-term effect is difficulty with swallowing or feeding. This question is relevant to assessing the child's oral and feeding function, which can be influenced by the cleft palate repair.
B. "Does the child play with an imaginary friend?"
Explanation: Imaginary play and social interactions are not directly related to the long-term effects of cleft palate repair. This question focuses more on social and imaginative development.
C. "Does the child respond when called by name?"
Explanation: Responsiveness to one's name is a general developmental milestone and is not directly related to the long-term effects of cleft palate repair.
D. "Was the child recently treated for pneumonia?"
Explanation: While respiratory issues can be a concern in children with a history of cleft palate, this question is more specific to recent health issues and does not address the long-term effects of cleft palate repair.
