,The parent of a preschooler with chickenpox asks the nurse about
measures to make the child comfortable. The nurse instructs the parent to
avoid administering aspirin or any other product that contains salicylates.
When given to children with chickenpox, aspirin has been linked to which
disorder?
1. Guillain-Barré syndrome
2. Rheumatic fever
3. Reye's syndrome
4. Scarlet fever 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.
