Which of the following is most likely to impact the body image of an infant...

Altered Family Processes is a potential nursing diagnosis for the family and client with a new diagnosis of

Hemophilia. Infants are aware of how their caregivers respond to their needs. Stresses can have an immediate

impact on the infant’s development of trust and how others relate to them because of their diagnosis. The longterm

effects of hemophilia can include problems related to immobility. Altered growth and development could not

have developed in a newly diagnosed client. Hemarthrosis is acute bleeding into a joint space that is characteristic

of hemophilia. It does not have an immediate effect on the body image of a newly diagnosed hemophiliac.Health
