Three Critical Points to Remember for Each Topic Missed
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder:
Assist with appropriate classroom placement in the school:
● collaborate with the school nurse
● allow more time for testing
● place in classroom that has order and consistent rules
● offer verbal instruction combined with visual cues
● plan academic subjects in the morning
● include regular breaks provide small classroom settings
or work groups
Pain Management:
● Assessment of pain depends on the child's cognitive
emotional and physical development
● Atraumatic care is used of interventions to minimize or
eliminate physical and psychological distress
● Pain is managed by a traumatic non-pharmacological
and pharmacological interventions
Hyperkalemia (potassium more than 50 mEq/L):
severe hyperkalemia can require treatment ( Calcium salt,
glucose and insulin, sodium bicarbonate, sodium polystyrene
Sulfonate, peritoneal dialysis, or hemodialysis).

● Sodium polystyrene sulfonate replaces sodium with
potassium and the intestinal tract to promote
potassium excretion.
● Sorbitol induces a bowel movement to promote the
excretion of excess potassium.
● In an emergency, IV medications can be required to
reduce potassium.
● Administer sodium bicarbonate if the client has severe
metabolic acidosis.
● For hyperphosphatemia administer phosphate-binding
agents.

Asthma is a chronic childhood inflammatory disorder of the
airway that results in intermittent and reversible airflow
obstruction of the bronchioles. it causes School absences and
is considered one of the leading causes of hospitalizations
among children. the obstruction occurs because the mast cells
release histamine and Leukotrienes Which causes
inflammation or Airway hyperresponsiveness. asthma
diagnosis has are classified into one of four categories based
on effects of the child intermittent mild persistent moderate
persistent and severe persistent.
