Answer:

The nurse has taught the parents the following instructions:

  • Apply emollient immediately after a bath .
  • Give tepid baths with mild soap .
  • Keep child's nails well-trimmed

Explanation:

Atopic dermatitis (eczema):

It is defined as a condition that results in the inflammation, redness and itchiness of the skin.  It is a chronic condition and usually children suffer from it. It is recommended to keep your skin moisturized by using the creams or ointments prescribed by the doctor.

In our case, the nurse has given the instruction to parents to apply the emollient immediately after the bath to avoid the dryness of skin otherwise it can cause the itchiness of the skin. Similarly mild soap also keep your skin soft and fresh as the ingredients like Aloe Vera, olive oil etc. The trimmed nails prevent you to make rashes on your skin because you can make new rashes on skin in the case of itching.

It is appropriate for the nurse to recommend smoking cessation for clients with hypertension because nicotine.
KIM [24]

Yes, it is appropriate for the nurse to recommend smoking cessation for clients with hypertension because nicotine in cigarettes causes your blood vessels to constrict and the heart to beat more rapidly, thus raising your blood pressure.

Nicotine is a extremely addictive chemical compound present in a tobacco plant.  Nicotine is a stimulant, which makes tobacco products addicting. Even when people wish to stop using tobacco products, nicotine prevents them from doing so.

Because of ongoing tobacco use, the number of deaths and disabilities attributable to tobacco use is rising globally (mainly cigarettes). While tobacco use is steadily increasing in high-income countries like the USA, it has reached epidemic proportions in many low- and middle-income nations (The Tobacco Atlas 2015; CDC 2016). 68 % of adult smokers in the United States want to stop, and millions have tried to do so, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC 2017).

Each year, 70 % of smokers contact a healthcare provider (AHRQ 2008). Since nurses participate in the majority of these visits and constitute the biggest group of healthcare providers globally, they have the potential to have a significant impact on the decline in tobacco use.
