The nurse is caring for a 2-year-old girl with persistent otitis media with effusion.
Which intervention is most important to the developmental health of the child?
a. Informing the parents to avoid nonprescription drugs
b. Telling parents not to smoke in the house
c. Educating the parents about proper antibiotic use
d. Reassessing for language acquisition - Answer: d
Reassessing for language acquisition would be most important to the health of the
child. There is a risk of otitis media with effusion causing hearing loss, as well as
speech, language, and learning problems. Parents should not use over-the-counter
drugs to alleviate the child's symptoms, nor should they smoke around her. In
addition, proper antibiotic use is important; however, language acquisition is directly
related to developmental health.
The nurse is caring for an 8-year-old boy with otitis media with effusion. Which
situation may have caused this disorder?
a. He frequently goes swimming
b. He has good attendance at school
c. He is experiencing recurrent nasal congestion
d. He had recent bacterial conjunctivitis - Answer: c
Recurrent nasal congestion contributes to the presence of otitis media with effusion.
Frequent swimming would put the child at risk for otitis externa. Attendance at school
is a risk factor for infective conjunctivitis. Although otitis media is a risk factor for
infective conjunctivitis, infective conjunctivitis is not a risk factor for otitis media with
effusion.
A 10-year-old boy has just been treated for otitis externa and now the nurse is
teaching the boy and his parents about prevention. Which recommendation should
the nurse include?
a. Using alcohol and vinegar for soreness
b. Using cotton swabs to keep the inner ear dry
c. Using a hair dryer on cool to dry the ears
d. Washing the hair only when necessary - Answer: c
A mixture of ½ rubbing alcohol and ½ vinegar squirted into the canal and then
allowed to run out is a good preventative measure, but not when inflammation is
present. Cotton swabs should not be placed in the ears to dry them. He can wash his
hair as needed. Using a hair dryer on a cool setting to dry the ears works well as
long as the vent is clean and free from dust and hair that may have accumulated.
The nurse works in a pediatrician office. Which children, who have been diagnosed
with acute otitis media, does the nurse expect the physician to treat with antibiotics?
