Which of the following is not a part of nursing management for the prevention of disease transmission in kids?

Correct option is B

Leaving draining wounds open to dry is not an appropriate nursing practice for preventing disease transmission. Proper wound care usually involves cleaning the wound, applying an appropriate dressing, and ensuring that the wound is protected from external contamination. Open wounds are at a higher risk of infection and transmission of pathogens.
Explanation of each option:
· (a) Isolate children with suspicious rashes and respiratory infections – Correct practice. Isolating children with potentially contagious rashes or respiratory infections helps prevent the spread of diseases to other children.
· (b) Leave draining wounds open to dry – Incorrect. This is not part of proper nursing management as open wounds can lead to infections. Wounds should be covered and treated to prevent contamination and promote healing.
· (c) Recall that the fecal-oral and respiratory routes are the most common routes of transmission in children – Correct practice. It is important to understand these routes of transmission to implement proper infection control measures like hand hygiene and isolation.
· (d) Wipe down hard surfaces in the examining room with an antiseptic solution before another child uses the room – Correct practice. Cleaning surfaces with antiseptic solutions helps prevent the transmission of pathogens in healthcare settings, especially when used by multiple children.
