For effective decisions to be made, baseline information on the child's condition, extent of injury, and significant health history are required first. Hyperimmune antirabies serum is not a preferred treatment. Inoculation for establishment of short-term, passive immunity to rabies follows initial care of injuries; the priority is assessment and treatment of the injury. Authorities should be notified after the injured child has received care.

Answer: Prosopagnosia or face blindness
Explanation:
The pediatrician will most likely think about prosopagnosia which is also referred to as face blindness.

This condition can either be acquired or congenital with the acquired form as a result of trauma to the brain and is mostly seen in adults.
The congenital form is as a result of developmental abnormality involving the fusiform gyrus and mostly seen in children.

Norman was injured in a severe car accident, and now, according to his doctors, his hormone levels are highly irregular. In order to have created such havoc in his endocrine system, Norman's injury probably involved damage to his ______________.
Answer:
pituitary gland
Explanation:
The pituitary gland is a ductless gland of the endocrine system located on the underside of the brain and is attached to the hypothalamus. The pituitary gland is responsible for the regulation of the secretion of various hormones into the bloodstream, which controls many different processes and vital functions of the body. It is referred to as the “master gland”. It controls endocrine glands such as the thyroid gland, adrenal gland, reproductive gland.
Answer:
Norman was injured in a severe car accident, and now, according to his doctors, his hormone levels are highly irregular. In order to have created such havoc in his endocrine system, Norman's injury probably involved damage to his pituitary gland.
Explanation:
As in the given scenario, hormones level are highly irregular after the accident , it is a probability that the pituitary gland was damaged due to severe head injury resulting in irregular hormone levels
Pituitary gland is located in brain responsible to produce topical (stimulating) as well as local hormones.
The hormones produced by the pituitary gland stimulates the production of hormones by a peripheral endocrine gland , liver or other tissues.

A nursing infant is able to obtain disease-fighting antibodies, which are large protein molecules, from its mother's milk. These molecules probably enter the cells lining the baby's digestive tract via which process?
The large protein molecules, like disease-fighting antibodies in the mother's milk, enter the cells lining the infant's digestive tract through a process called endocytosis, specifically pinocytosis, where cells absorb the molecules by engulfing them.
Explanation:The process by which large protein molecules, such as the disease-fighting antibodies in mother's milk, enter the cells lining an infant's digestive tract is called endocytosis. This is a cellular process whereby cells absorb these molecules by engulfing them. Specifically, it's called pinocytosis, a type of endocytosis involving the absorption of liquids and solutes.
During pinocytosis, the cell surface folds inwards and forms a pocket around the molecules. The pocket then pinches off into the cell, forming a vesicle where the molecules are then broken down and used by the cell.
Therefore, it is through pinocytosis that infants are able to gain the disease-fighting antibodies present in their mother's milk, granting them initial immunity before their own immune systems fully develop.

Answer: STAGE 2 OF SLEEP
N2 (R STAGE 2)
Explanation: Stage 2 of sleep is also known as NON-REM(non rapid eye movement) stage and it is characterised by short rythmic bursts of brainwave activity known as sleep spindles.
In this second stage of sleep,there is decreased metabolic activity in the body, the heart rate, breathing and eye movement slows down.the muscles relax with intervals of twitching,the brain waves slows down from their daytime wakefulness.
These processes are regulated from the higher brain centers which is part of the cerebrum that is associated with cognitive processes.

A client with chronic open-angle glaucoma is being taught to self-administer pilocarpine. After the client administers the pilocarpine, the client states that her vision is blurred. Which nursing action is most appropriate?
Pilocarpine is an antimuscarinic drug. There are M3 receptors located on the pupil responsible to constrict the pupils (miosis ) and also causing cyclospasm.
As pilocarpine is administered ,it is a pharmacologic antagonist of the muscarinic receptor , it results in mydriasis (dilation of pupils ) and cycloplegia ( inability to accommodate ) resulting in blurred vision.
Hence it is one of the side effects of pilocarpine.
Angela has been experiencing headaches for a number of months, and after extensive testing it is determined that she has intractable chronic cluster headaches. This would be coded with code ________ .
a. G44.10
b. G44.021
c. G44.229
d. G43.9
Answer:
B) G44.021
Explanation:
The correct code for chronic cluster headaches is b. G44.021, which matches Angela's condition of enduring intractable chronic cluster headaches.
Cluster headaches are a type of headache that is marked by severe pain on one side of the head, often around the eye. They are called 'cluster headaches' because they tend to occur in groups or clusters.
A characteristic feature of these headaches is their cyclical nature, with periods of frequent attacks ('clusters'), followed by remission periods. Intractable headaches are those that do not respond well to treatments.
The correct answer to the question is b. G44.021. This code is for chronic cluster headaches, which fits Angela's condition of experiencing long-term, intractable cluster headaches.
Codes like G44.10, G44.229, and G43.9 relate to other types of headaches or migraines, not specifically to chronic cluster headaches.
A nurse is completing a vision exam with the Snellen eye chart and records the client's vision as 20/30 or 6/9. The client asks the nurse, "What does that mean?" How should the nurse respond?a. "Your vision is perfect; you can read the entire chart and you do not need glasses." b. "You are able to read at 20 ft (6 m) what a person with normal vision can read at 30 ft (9m)." c. "Your vision in your right eye is slightly different than that of your left eye." d. "Your vision is better than average; you can read from 30 ft (9 m) what a person with normal vision can read from 20 ft (6 m)."e. "You are able to read at 20 ft (6 m) what a person with normal vision can read at 30 ft (9m)."
Answer:
The answer is B- "You are able to read at 20 ft (6 m) what a person with normal vision can read at 30 ft (9 m)."
Explanation:
A snellen eye chart is used by the ophthalmologist for the measurement of visual acuity or clarity of a person's vision. It contains symbols which are referred to as optotypes
To interpret the result of a client's vision from the snellen eye chart, the top number shows the distance at which the client is standing from the chart while the denominator shows the distance at which a normal eye can see. Telling the client that vision is perfect or that vision is above average or that one eye is better than the other is not appropriate.
As in the question, if the nurse records the client's vision as 20/30 or 6/9, it then means that the client can read at 20 feet away what a person with a normal vision can read at 30 feet away, or the client can read at 6 meters what a person with a normal vision can read at 9 meters.
