Read the following health record excerpt: I have performed tympanocentesis in the office and sent the fluid for culture. While awaiting the result, we will treat him with an IM antibiotic. I will also send a fungal culture to rule out otomycosis. Although Johnny has mild mastoidalgia, he is afebrile today and in no distress. I do not think he has acute mastoiditis, but I told Johnny's parents what to look for. Given how long Johnny has had this infection, he will need to see audiology for audiometry when he is better. According to the health record excerpt, which statement is NOT true?


A) Johnny's parents are monitoring him for symptoms of mastoid inflammation.
B) The physician punctured the patient's eardrum and sent the fluid for culture.
