Lead exposure in children can occur through the ingestion of lead paint chips. Paint in older homes may contain high levels of lead, and children may eat these chips or inhale dust from lead-based paint, leading to lead poisoning.

Sleepwalking is often related to the immaturity of the nervous system, which is why it is more commonly observed in children, who typically outgrow it as their nervous systems develop.

Question 6

Which statement about encopresis is TRUE?&#10;A) There is no way to prevent it.&#10;B) It is less common than enuresis.&#10;C) Children who soil their beds should be punished.&#10;D) The problem tends to end by age 4.

Accepted Answer

Encopresis is less common than enuresis (bedwetting). Enuresis is a more frequent issue among children, whereas encopresis, the involuntary defecation not attributable to physical defects or illness, is less commonly observed.

Question 7

The fact that bedwetting tends to occur in the deepest stage of sleep indicates that it&#10;A) is impossible to prevent.&#10;B) should be considered a sleep disorder.&#10;C) is caused by a psychological disorder.&#10;D) can be prevented only with psychotherapy.

Accepted Answer

Bedwetting occurring in the deepest stage of sleep suggests it is related to the sleep cycle and how the body manages bladder control during these stages, rather than being primarily a psychological issue or something that cannot be prevented or treated without psychotherapy. This makes it reasonable to consider it within the context of sleep disorders.

Question 8

Bedwetting&#10;A) can only be successfully treated with serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) medications.&#10;B) is a sign of a serious physical problem.&#10;C) should always be treated with antidiuretics.&#10;D) usually will just go away with time and patience.

Accepted Answer

Bedwetting often resolves on its own as a child grows older, with time and patience being key components in managing the condition. While treatments are available for persistent cases, many children outgrow bedwetting without the need for medical intervention.

Accepted Answer

Enuresis is the medical term for involuntary urination, especially by children at night, which is commonly referred to as bedwetting. It is the failure to control the bladder once the normal age for control has been reached.

The corpus callosum is a thick bundle of nerve fibers that connects the two hemispheres of the brain, facilitating communication between them.
