e’to’drink’when’taking’oral’medications’provides’the’child’with’a’sense’of’control.’The’preschool’child’sh
ould’be’prepared’before’procedures,’so’limiting’explanations’of’procedures’would’increase’anxiety.’The’
family’should’be’allowed’to’stay’with’the’child’during’procedures,’minimizing’stress.
Lidocaine/prilocaine’(EMLA)’cream’is’a’topical’local’anesthetic.’The’nurse’should’plan’to’use’the’prescribed’

e’most’risk’factors’related’to’childhood’injury?

b. Male,’high’activity’level,’stressful’home’life
c. Male,’even’tempered,’history’of’previous’injuries
d. Female,’reacts’negatively’to’new’situations,’no’serious’previous’injuries

ANS:’ B
Boys’have’a’preponderance’for’injuries’over’girls’because’of’a’difference’in’behavioral’characteristics,’a’
high’activity’temperament’is’associated’with’risk-
taking’behaviors,’and’stress’predisposes’children’to’increased’risk’taking’and’self-
destructive’behaviors.’Therefore,’a’male’child’with’a’high’activity’level’and’living’in’a’stressful’environm
ent’has’the’highest’number’of’risk’factors.’A’girl’with’several’siblings’and’a’stable’home’life’is’low’risk.’A’
boy’with’previous’injuries’has’two’risk’factors,’but’an’even’temper’is’not’a’risk’factor’for’injuries.’A’girl’w
ho’reacts’negatively’to’new’situations’but’has’no’previous’serious’illnesses’has’only’one’risk’factor.
