A toddler fell out of a second-story window. She had a brief loss of consciousness and vomited four times. Since admission, she has been alert and oriented. Her mother asks why a computed tomography (CT) scan is required when she “seems fine.” Which explanation should the nurse give?
a.   Your child may have a brain injury and the CT can rule one out.
b.   The CT needs to be done because of your child’s age.
c.   Your child may start to have seizures and a baseline CT should be done.
d.   Your child probably has a skull fracture and the CT can confirm this diagnosis.
