Answer: The priority Nursing assessment is EVALUATION.

This is because the patient has been administered Methylphenidate which is expected to treat the disease. A future visit by the Nurse will be to re-evaluate or reassess the patient's condition if he is improving or if the drug prescribed initially met the desired outcome.

Answer:

Weight and height

Although research to back the claims that stimulant medications such as methylphenidate affects the height of children, it is possible for this assessment to be done in order to reverse this effect with the withdrawal method as soon as possible.
