For each assessment finding, specify if it is consistent with bacterial meningitis, encephalitis, or Reye syndrome. Each finding may support more than one disease process.

Sagot :

Let's analyze each assessment finding and specify which disease processes it is consistent with.

1. Photophobia:
- Consistent with:
- Encephalitis
- Reye syndrome
- [tex]\[ \text{Bacterial Meningitis: } \; \square \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Reye Syndrome: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Encephalitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]

2. Temperature:
- Consistent with:
- Bacterial Meningitis
- Encephalitis
- Reye Syndrome
- [tex]\[ \text{Bacterial Meningitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Reye Syndrome: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Encephalitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]

3. Pain:
- Consistent with:
- Bacterial Meningitis
- Encephalitis
- [tex]\[ \text{Bacterial Meningitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Reye Syndrome: } \; \square \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Encephalitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]

4. Mental Status Changes:
- Consistent with:
- Bacterial Meningitis
- Encephalitis
- Reye Syndrome
- [tex]\[ \text{Bacterial Meningitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Reye Syndrome: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Encephalitis: } \; \checked \][/tex]

5. Hepatic Function:
- Consistent with:
- Reye Syndrome
- [tex]\[ \text{Bacterial Meningitis: } \; \square \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Reye Syndrome: } \; \checked \][/tex]
- [tex]\[ \text{Encephalitis: } \; \square \][/tex]

The final table should look like this:
