Nursing Care of Children Final ATI Questions
Question 1 of 5
Parents of a hospitalized toddler ask the nurse, "What is meant by family-centered care?" The nurse should respond with which statement?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Family-centered care emphasizes the importance of the family as the constant in a child's life, involving them in all aspects of care and decision-making.
Question 2 of 5
At what stage can infants raise their heads and gain control of their trunks before walking due to which directional pattern of development?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Cephalocaudal. The cephalocaudal pattern of development means that growth and motor control proceed from the head downward through the body. This explains why infants can raise their heads before they can sit and gain control of their trunks before walking. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Anterior to posterior refers to development from the front to the back, while proximodistal refers to development from the center of the body outward. Normal growth curve charts are used to track physical growth over time and are not directly related to the directional pattern of development in infants.
Question 3 of 5
The nurse is evaluating research studies according to the GRADE criteria and has determined the quality of evidence on the subject is moderate. Which type of evidence does this determination indicate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Moderate evidence typically indicates that results from randomized clinical trials were inconsistent, highlighting the need for further research to confirm findings.
Question 4 of 5
Which is a consequence of the physical punishment of children, such as spanking?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Physical punishment, such as spanking, may result in children misbehaving when parents are not present, as it does not teach appropriate behavior or self-regulation.
Question 5 of 5
Why does the nurse have a 2-year-old boy sit in a "tailor" position while palpating for the presence of the testes?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The tailor position stretches the muscle responsible for the cremasteric reflex, preventing it from contracting and pulling the testes into the pelvic cavity. This position helps accurately palpate the testes. Choice B is incorrect because the position does not facilitate the palpation of undescended testes specifically. Choice C is incorrect as it does not relate to the rationale behind the tailor position. Choice D is incorrect as the reason for using the tailor position is not related to the child's need for privacy.
