What is the most appropriate intervention for the parents of a 6-year-old child with precocious puberty?

In a teaching plan for the mother of an 11-year-old boy with ulcerative colitis, the nurse should stress the importance of coping with stress and avoiding triggers. Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that can be influenced by various factors, including stress and triggers. Helping the child and the family develop effective stress management strategies and identifying and avoiding triggers can help in reducing the frequency and severity of ulcerative colitis flare-ups.

preventing the spread of illness to others in (option B) is incorrect because it, is not the primary focus of teaching for ulcerative colitis. Ulcerative colitis is not an infectious condition that can be spread to others.

, nutritional guidance and supportive intake of sodas in (option C) is incorrect because it, is an important aspect of managing ulcerative colitis. However, it should be addressed in conjunction with a comprehensive nutritional plan that considers the individual needs and tolerances of the child. The mention of supportive intake of sodas may not be appropriate, as carbonated beverages can potentially aggravate symptoms in some individuals with ulcerative colitis.

teaching daily use of enemas in (option D) is incorrect because it, is not typically a part of routine care for ulcerative colitis in children. The use of enemas may be considered in specific situations or as part of an individualized treatment plan under the guidance of healthcare providers, but it is not a general teaching point for all children with ulcerative colitis.

Juvenile arthritis should be suspected in a child who exhibits joint swelling and pain lasting
longer than 6 weeks. Juvenile arthritis refers to a group of chronic inflammatory conditions
that affect the joints in children and adolescents. Persistent joint swelling and pain are
common symptoms of juvenile arthritis and are often accompanied by other signs such as
morning stiffness, limited range of motion, and joint warmth.
, frequent fractures in (option A) is not correct because it, is not typically associated with
juvenile arthritis. Fractures are more commonly associated with conditions affecting bone
strength, such as osteoporosis or certain genetic disorders.

lurching and abnormal gait with limited abduction in (option A) is not correct because it,
may be seen in certain musculoskeletal conditions or hip joint abnormalities, but it is not
specific to juvenile arthritis.
increased joint mobility in (option D) is incorrect because it, is not typically associated with
juvenile arthritis. In fact, joint stiffness and limited range of motion are more characteristic of
this condition.
