,What is the pneumococcal disease - ANSWER✔✔✔-Pneumococcal

such as pneumococcal pneumonia, meningitis, and otitis media.
| | | | | | | |



Pneumococcal disease can be fatal. In some cases, it can result in long-
| | | | | | | | | | | |



term problems, such as brain damage, hearing loss, and limb loss.
| | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | | | |



pregnant women; people with chronic health conditions like asthma or
| | | | | | | | | |



heart and lung disease; and people ages 65 years and older. The best
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

What is an expected behavior of an older infant when hospitalized? -
| | | | | | | | | | | |



ANSWER✔✔✔-When an infant in late infancy is hospitalized, separation | | | | | | | |

, |anxiety behaviors are common. Separation anxiety normally occurs
| | | | | | | |



when a child is separated from loved ones who offer security. It usually
| | | | | | | | | | | | |



begins at about age 6 months and continues through the preschool
| | | | | | | | | | |



period. At a later age, the young child is able to predict this happening
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



and feels anxiety even before the separation occurs. The infant may
| | | | | | | | | | |



initially cry and scream in the phase of protest, but then stop crying and
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



appear depressed, which is the despair phase (Hockenberry et al.,
| | | | | | | | | |



2022). Nurses should facilitate parents or guardians staying with the
| | | | | | | | | |



hospitalized infant; when that is not possible, consistent health care
| | | | | | | | | |



providers are important to promote the infant's trust in others.
| | | | | | | | |

| | | | | |




c. serum sickness.
| |




d. a mild disease in healthy people. - ANSWER✔✔✔-b. active immunity
| | | | | | | | | | |



to a foreign protein.
| | |




It is now recommended that all people over the age of 6 months should
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



receive a flu vaccine every fall based on the understanding that the
| | | | | | | | | | | |



vaccine is repeated because | | |




a. the immunity wears off after a year.
| | | | | | |




b. the strains of virus predicted to cause the flu change every year.
| | | | | | | | | | | |




c. a booster shot will activate the immune system.
