The parent of a preschooler with chickenpox asks the nurse
about measures to make the child comfortable. The nurse

product that contains salicylates. When given to children with
chickenpox, aspirin has been linked to which disorder?
1. Guillain-Barré syndrome
2. Rheumatic fever
,Page 2 of 119
3. Reye's syndrome
4. Scarlet fever - ✔✔✔ Correct Answer > Correct Answer: 3
RATIONALES: Research shows a correlation between the use of
aspirin during chickenpox and the development of Reye's
syndrome (a disorder characterized by brain and liver toxicity).
Therefore, the nurse should instruct the parents to avoid
administering aspirin or other products that contain salicylates
and to consult the physician or pharmacist before administering
any medication to a child with chickenpox. No research has found
a link between aspirin use, chickenpox, and the development of
Guillain-Barré syndrome, rheumatic fever, or scarlet fever.

allows the formula to flow into the client's intestines. When such
elevation is contraindicated, the client should be positioned on
the right side. The nurse should give enteral feedings at room

infused in 8 hours.
