A nurse is teaching parents about safety issues to prevent injuries in school-age children. Which of the following statements by the parents indicates that they require additional teaching?
"We will use a booster seat until our child is tall enough for the seatbelt to fit properly."
"Once transitioned into a booster seat, we will allow our child to ride in the front seat of the car."
"We will ensure our child wears a helmet while riding a bicycle."
"We will teach our child to avoid running into the street without looking."
The Correct Answer is B
A. Using a booster seat until the child reaches the appropriate height for a seatbelt is correct and aligns with safety guidelines for child passengers.
B. Allowing a child to ride in the front seat while still using a booster seat is unsafe; children should remain in the back seat until they are at least 13 years old.
C. Ensuring that the child wears a helmet while riding a bicycle is an important safety measure and demonstrates understanding of injury prevention.
D. Teaching the child to avoid running into the street without looking shows awareness of pedestrian safety and the need for supervision and education about traffic safety.

Correct Answer is ["A","B","D","E"]
Explanation
A. It is important for the client to remain in bed for a specified time (typically 4 to 6 hours) to prevent complications such as bleeding at the catheter insertion site.
B. Checking peripheral pulses in the affected extremity is crucial for assessing circulation and identifying any potential complications, such as hematoma or occlusion.
C. High-Fowler's position is not typically appropriate immediately after cardiac catheterization; the client should remain flat or with limited elevation to reduce stress on the insertion site.
D. Keeping the hip and leg extended is important to prevent flexion at the site of catheter insertion, reducing the risk of bleeding or hematoma formation.
E. Measuring vital signs is essential after a procedure like cardiac catheterization to monitor for any changes that may indicate complications; however, the frequency is typically more frequent than every 4 hours initially.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
A. While constipation can be a side effect of iron supplements, taking them between meals is primarily aimed at improving absorption rather than preventing constipation.
B. Taking iron supplements with food does not specifically increase the risk of esophagitis; instead, it is known to interfere with the absorption of iron.
C. Taking ferrous sulfate between meals optimizes its absorption because food, particularly dairy products, caffeine, and some high-fiber foods, can inhibit the absorption of iron.
D. Although iron supplements can cause nausea, it is more effective to take them between meals for better absorption rather than solely to prevent nausea.
