HESI Pediatric N158 Proctored Exam
A six-year-old girl is being admited to the hospital for repair of an umbilical hernia. Which information, collected by the admitting nurse, is particularly helpful in planning care for this child?
Explanation & Rationale
Information about the child's reactions to any previous hospitalizations would be particularly helpful in planning care for this six-year-old girl who is being admited for repair of an umbilical hernia. This information can help the nurse anticipate and address any fears or concerns the child may have about the hospitalization and procedure. A list of achievement timeline for developmental milestones is not particularly relevant in this situation. A history of rubella, rubeola, or chicken pox is not particularly relevant in this situation. Information about the mother's use of alcohol, drugs, or cigaretes during pregnancy is not particularly relevant in this situation.
