Page: 634-635 Heading: Table 24-3 Care Plan for the Child with Autism Spectrum Disorder Integrated Processes: Nursing Process Client Need: Psychosocial Integrity Cognitive Level: Application [Applying] Concept: Cognition Difficulty: Moderate Feedback 1 Encouraging and rewarding peer contact does not help the child feel more secure. 2 The nurse should provide consistent caregivers as part of the plan of care for a child diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder. Children diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder have an inability to trust.

Page: 745-750 Heading: The Community as Client > Tertiary Prevention > The Homeless Population Heading: The Homeless Population Integrated Processes: Nursing Process Client Need: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care Cognitive Level: Analysis [Analyzing] Concept: Perfusion Difficulty: Moderate Feedback 1 Meningitis has not recently become more prevalent. 2 The nurse should suspect that the homeless client has contracted tuberculosis. Tuberculosis is a growing problem among individuals who are homeless, owing to being in crowded shelters, which are ideal conditions for the spread of respiratory tuberculosis.

5. After an adolescent diagnosed with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) begins methylphenidate (Ritalin) therapy, a nurse notes that the adolescent loses 10 pounds in a 2-month period. What is the best explanation for this weight loss? 1. The pharmacological action of Ritalin causes a decrease in appetite. 2. Hyperactivity seen in ADHD causes increased caloric expenditure. 3. Side effects of Ritalin cause nausea, and, therefore, caloric intake is decreased. 4. Increased ability to concentrate allows the client to focus on activities rather than food.
