Nursing Care of Children ATI Questions

Question 1 of 5

At what age is it safe to give infants whole milk instead of commercial infant formula?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Whole milk should not be introduced before 12 months because it lacks the necessary nutrients, such as iron, that infants need for proper growth and development.

Question 2 of 5

What is the best age to introduce solid food into an infant's diet?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The introduction of solid foods is recommended at 4 to 6 months when the infant's digestive system is more developed and ready for solids.

Question 3 of 5

What changes could the school nurse implement at the school to help reduce students' risk for developing type 2 diabetes?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Increasing physical activity helps improve insulin sensitivity and can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in children. Regular physical activity is a key component in managing weight and reducing the risk of chronic diseases. Decreasing physical activity (Choice B) would not be beneficial in reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Testing each child's urine monthly (Choice C) is not directly related to preventing type 2 diabetes. Teaching parents to avoid administering aspirin to their child (Choice D) is important for Reye's syndrome prevention but not directly related to reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes.

Question 4 of 5

When should the dressing change for a post-op pediatric patient that is expected to be very painful and frightening be performed?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'In the treatment room.' Performing painful procedures in the treatment room helps the child associate their own room with safety and comfort, not pain. Choice A is incorrect because performing the dressing change in the patient's room may create a negative association with their safe space. Choice C is incorrect as it is important to ensure proper wound care and pain management before discharge. Choice D is incorrect as the playroom may not be equipped for a sterile dressing change.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is providing anticipatory guidance to parents of a 4-month-old infant on preventing an aspiration injury. What should the nurse include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Baby powder can be inhaled by the infant and cause respiratory distress. Toys should be inspected to prevent choking hazards. Allowing an infant to take a bottle to bed can increase the risk of aspiration, and hard foods like teething biscuits should be given with caution.
