The nurse is teaching about skin care for atopic dermatitis. Which statement by the parent indicates that further teaching may be necessary?
“I will use Vaseline to moisturize my child’s skin.”
“A hot bath will soothe my child’s itching when it is severe.”
“I will buy cotton rather than wool or synthetic clothing for my child.”
“I will apply a small amount of the prescribed cream after the bath.”
Answer explanation
Hot baths should be avoided, as they are more dehydrating to the skin. Warm baths are preferred, followed by patting the child dry and rubbing on a small amount of prescribed cream, than a liberal amount of fragrance free moisturizer. Avoid wool clothing.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Which of these factors contributes to infants’ and children’s increased risk for upper airway obstruction as compared with adults?
Underdeveloped cricoid cartilage and narrow nasal passages.
Small tonsils and narrow nasal passages.
Cylinder-shaped larynx and underdeveloped sinuses.
Underdeveloped cricoid cartilage and smaller tongue.
Answer explanation
Infants and children have smaller nasal passages than adults, thus making obstruction with mucous more common. The funnel shape of the larynx due to underdevelopment of the cricoid cartilage places children less than 10 years old at increased risk of airway obstruction in the event of edema or mucous production.
