1. Question
Which interventions apply to the care of a child who is having a seizure? Select all that apply.
CorrectAnswer & Rationale:
Option 3,5,6 is Correct
Rationale: During a seizure, the child is placed on his or her side in a lateral position. Positioning on the side prevents aspiration because saliva drains out the corner of the child’s mouth. The child is not restrained because this could cause injury to the child. The nurse would loosen clothing around the child’s neck and ensure a patent airway. Nothing is placed in the child’s mouth during a seizure because this could injure the child’s mouth, gums, or teeth. The nurse would stay with the child to reduce the risk of injury and allow for observation and timing of the seizure.
