B. Ask the child's caregiver to step out of the room during the procedure.
C. Use a 24-gauge needle to administer the immunization.
D. Inject the vaccine slowly after aspirating for three seconds.

Correct Answer: C
The nurse should use a 24-gauge needle when administering an immunization to a four-year-old to
minimize pain and discomfort.

 A: The child should be placed in an upright seated position, as this helps reduce fear and
anxiety.

anxiety.
 D: The nurse should administer the injection quickly without aspirating to prevent
unnecessary discomfort and reduce the risk of needle displacement.

dehydration is effective.

 C: A urine specific gravity of 1.035 is elevated, indicating concentrated urine, which may
suggest ongoing dehydration.

properly eliminating waste.

positions increase SIDS risk.

 C: A firm mattress should be used instead of a soft one to prevent asphyxiation.

A nurse is evaluating an infant diagnosed with pneumonia. Which finding should be reported to the
provider as the highest priority?

C. Diarrhea
D. Abdominal distension
