Correct Answer is C
Explanation
A. While child protective services may be necessary in cases of abuse or neglect, it is premature to take this action without understanding the family's dynamics and assessing the parent’s knowledge and skills regarding asthma management.
B. Providing a detailed medication schedule and healthcare provider information is helpful but does not actively engage the parent in the child's care or education about asthma management.
C. Empowering the parent through comprehensive education will foster engagement and collaboration, equipping them with the knowledge needed to support their child's asthma management effectively at home.
D. Reviewing the asthma action plan is important, but it should involve both the child and parent to ensure that the parent is actively engaged and understands how to implement the plan.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
A. This statement is incorrect; the spacer does not primarily increase medication delivery to the oropharynx.
B. The spacer helps to increase the amount of medication that reaches the lungs by allowing larger particles to settle out and preventing them from being deposited in the mouth and throat.
C. Inhaling slowly and deeply is recommended for effective medication delivery when using an MDI with a spacer.
D. Covering the exhalation slots would prevent proper airflow and could cause the child to inhale exhaled air, which is not recommended during inhalation.
