1. Which is the leading cause of death in infants younger than 1 year in the United States?

1. Congenital anomalies

1. Sudden infant death syndrome

1. Disorders related to short gestation and low birth weight
2. Maternal complications specific to the perinatal period ANS: A

1. Disease occurring regularly within a geographic location

1. The number of individuals who have died over a specific period

1. The prevalence of specific illness in the population at a particular time
2. Disease occurring in more than the number of expected cases in a community ANS: B

Mortality statistics refer to the number of individuals who have died over a specific period.

 Morbidity statistics show the prevalence of specific illness in the population at a particular time. Data regarding disease within a geographic region, or in greater than expected numbers in a community, may be extrapolated from analyzing the morbidity statistics.

1. Preschoolers

1. Young school age

1. Middle school age
2. Late school age and adolescents ANS: D

1. Parents of a hospitalized toddler ask the nurse, What is meant by family-centered care? The nurse should

1. Family-centered care reduces the effect of cultural diversity on the family.

1. Family-centered care encourages family dependence on the health care system.

1. Family-centered care recognizes that the family is the constant in a childs life.

1. Family-centered care avoids expecting families to be part of the decision-making process.

ANS: C

The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support. Family-centered care recognizes the family as the constant in the childs life. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the health care system and is expected to be part of the decision-making process. The nurse should also support the familys cultural diversity, not reduce its effect.

1. Purposeful and goal directed

1. A simple developmental process

1. Based on deliberate and irrational thought
2. Assists individuals in guessing what is most appropriate ANS: A

Clinical reasoning is a complex developmental process based on rational and deliberate thought. When thinking is clear, precise, accurate, relevant, consistent, and fair, a logical connection develops between the elements of thought and the problem at hand.

1. Evidence-based practice (EBP), a decision-making model, is best described as which?

1. Using information in textbooks to guide care

1. Combining knowledge with clinical experience and intuition

1. Using a professional code of ethics as a means for decision making

d.Gathering all evidence that applies to the childs health and family situation

ANS: B

EBP helps focus on measurable outcomes; the use of demonstrated, effective interventions; and questioning what is the best approach. EBP involves decision making based on data, not all evidence on a particular situation, and involves the latest available data. Nurses can use textbooks to determine areas of concern and potential involvement.

1. Which best describes signs and symptoms as part of a nursing diagnosis?

1. Description of potential risk factors

1. Identification of actual health problems

1. Human response to state of illness or health
2. Cues and clusters derived from patient assessment ANS: D

Signs and symptoms are the cues and clusters of defining characteristics that are derived from a patient assessment and indicate actual health problems. The first part of the nursing diagnosis is the problem statement, also known as the human response to the state of illness or health. The identification of actual health problems may be part of the medical diagnosis. The nursing diagnosis is based on the human response to these problems. The human response is therefore a component of the nursing diagnostic statement. Potential risk factors are used to identify nursing care needs to avoid the development of an actual health problem when a potential one exists.

TOP: Integrated Process: Communication and Documentation MSC: Client Needs: Safe and Effective Care Environment

1. The nurse is talking to a group of parents of school-age children at an after-school program about childhood health problems. Which statement should the nurse include in the teaching?

1. Childhood obesity is the most common nutritional problem among children.

1. Immunization rates are the same among children of different races and ethnicity.

1. Dental caries is not a problem commonly seen in children since the introduction of fluoridated water.

1. Mental health problems are typically not seen in school-age children but may be diagnosed in adolescents.

ANS: A

When teaching parents of school-age children about childhood health problems, the nurse should include information about childhood obesity because it is the most common problem among children and is associated with type 2 diabetes. Teaching parents about ways to prevent obesity is important to include. Immunization rates differ depending on the childs race and ethnicity; dental caries continues to be a common chronic disease in childhood; and mental health problems are seen in children as young as school age, not just in adolescents.

1. The nurse is planning care for a hospitalized preschool-aged child. Which should the nurse plan to ensure atraumatic care?

1. Limit explanation of procedures because the child is preschool aged.

1. Ask that all family members leave the room when performing procedures.

1. Allow the child to choose the type of juice to drink with the administration of oral medications.

1. ExplainthatEMLAcreamcannotbeusedforthemorninglabdrawbecausethereisnottimeforittobeeffective.

ANS: C

The overriding goal in providing atraumatic care is first, do no harm. Allowing the child a choice of juice to drink when taking oral medications provides the child with a sense of control. The preschool child should be prepared before procedures, so limiting explanations of procedures would increase anxiety. The family should be allowed to stay with the child during procedures, minimizing stress. Lidocaine/prilocaine (EMLA) cream is a topical local anesthetic. The nurse should plan to use the prescribed cream in time for morning laboratory draws to minimize pain.

1. Which situation denotes a nontherapeutic nursepatientfamily relationship?

1. The nurse is planning to read a favorite fairy tale to a patient.

1. During shift report, the nurse is criticizing parents for not visiting their child.

1. The nurse is discussing with a fellow nurse the emotional draw to a certain patient.

1. The nurse is working with a family to find ways to decrease the familys dependence on health care providers.

ANS: B

Criticizing parents for not visiting in shift report is nontherapeutic and shows an underinvolvement with the parents. Reading a fairy tale is a therapeutic and age appropriate action. Discussing feelings of an emotional draw with a fellow nurse is therapeutic and shows a willingness to understand feelings. Working with parents to decrease dependence on health care providers is therapeutic and helps to empower the family.

1. The nurse is aware that which age group is at risk for childhood injury because of the cognitive characteristic of magical and egocentric thinking?

1. Preschool

1. Young school age

1. Middle school age
2. Adolescent ANS: A

 Preschool children have the cognitive characteristic of magical and egocentric thinking, meaning they are unable to comprehend danger to self or others. Young and middle school-aged children have transitional cognitive processes, and they may attempt dangerous acts without detailed planning but recognize danger to themselves or others. Adolescents have formal operational cognitive processes and are preoccupied with abstract thinking.

1. The school nurse is assessing children for risk factors related to childhood injuries. Which child has the most risk factors related to childhood injury?

1. Female, multiple siblings, stable home life

1. Male, high activity level, stressful home life

1. Male, even tempered, history of previous injuries
2. Female, reacts negatively to new situations, no serious previous injuries ANS: B

Boys have a preponderance for injuries over girls because of a difference in behavioral characteristics, a high activity temperament is associated with risk-taking behaviors, and stress predisposes children to increased risk taking and self-destructive behaviors. Therefore, a male child with a high activity level and living in a stressful environment has the highest number of risk factors. A girl with several siblings and a stable home life is low risk. A boy with previous injuries has two risk factors, but an even temper is not a risk factor for injuries. A

girl who reacts negatively to new situations but has no previous serious illnesses has only one risk factor. DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyzing
