Which adventitious breath sound would a nurse expect to auscultate in a child admitted with an asthma exacerbation?

Choice A rationale:

Failing to regularly wash their hands after eating may contribute to the transmission of various infections, but it's not specifically related to pinworms.

Choice B rationale:

Failing to adequately wipe themselves after toileting can lead to the transfer of pinworm eggs from the anal area to the fingers and under the nails. This behavior increases the risk of ingesting the eggs through hand-to-mouth contact, which can perpetuate the pinworm infection cycle.

Choice C rationale:

Sharing clothing with friends might facilitate the transmission of certain infections like lice or fungal infections, but it's not a common mode of transmission for pinworms.

Choice D rationale:

Engaging in frequent hand-to-mouth activity might increase the risk of ingesting pinworm eggs, but the eggs are more likely to be present on the hands due to inadequate wiping after toileting.

Choice A rationale:

Giving the patient a soft tissue is not the initial action to take when dealing with clear liquid drainage from the nose. Assessing the content of the drainage is more crucial for appropriate management.

Choice B rationale:

Checking the drainage for glucose content is essential because the presence of glucose indicates that the drainage is cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which can occur with a skull fracture that involves the base of the skull.

Choice C rationale:

Obtaining a specimen of the drainage for culture and sensitivity is important, but it is not the initial action. Confirming the nature of the drainage takes precedence.

Choice D rationale:

Asking the father about nasal drainage before the injury is not as relevant as assessing the current drainage, which could be indicative of a CSF leak.
