A 10-year-old boy arrives with his mother at the emergency department after being bitten by a stray dog. He has sustained a soft

tissue injury on the inner aspect of the left forearm, and it is bleeding. What is the priority nursing action?
1
Asking the mother whether her son is allergic to horse serum
2
Assessing the injury and the child's vital signs and health history
3
Inoculating the child with human rabies immunoglobulin
4
Notifying the police department to capture and test the dog
2.
For effective decisions to be made, baseline information on the child's condition, extent of injury, and significant health history are required first. Hyperimmune antirabies serum is not a preferred treatment. Inoculation for establishment of short-term, passive immunity to rabies follows initial care of injuries; the priority is assessment and treatment of the injury. Authorities should be notified after the injured child has received care.

How does physical activity help maintaining a healthy weight
Alex787 [66]
The correct option is this: IT INCREASES THE AMOUNT OF ENERGY YOUR BODY USES AT REST.
Regular exercise increases the amount of energy that one burns while exercising, but it does not stop there, it also increases the amount of energy that one burns while the body is at rest. This is because regular exercise speed up the rate of metabolism of the body and this rate remain high even when the body is at rest, thus, an individual who exercises regularly will lose more energy at rest than some one who is not actively exercising.<span />
