Nursing Care of Children ATI Questions
Question 1 of 5
What information should be given to the parents of a 12-month-old child regarding appropriate play activities for this age?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Large push-pull toys are suitable for a 12-month-old as they encourage gross motor skills and physical activity, which are crucial for their development at this age.
Question 2 of 5
The nurse is caring for a child with an order of Ampicillin 250 mg IV in 30 mL of Normal Saline to infuse over 30 minutes. How many mL/hour should the nurse set the pump?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct setting for the infusion pump should be 60 mL/hour to deliver 30 mL in 30 minutes. To calculate the infusion rate in mL/hour, divide the total volume to be infused (30 mL) by the total time for infusion (30 minutes) and then multiply by 60 to convert minutes to hours. Therefore, 30 mL / 30 minutes * 60 minutes/hour = 60 mL/hour. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not match the calculation based on the given parameters.
Question 3 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 4 of 5
At an 8-month-old well-baby visit, the parent tells the nurse that her infant falls asleep at night during the last bottle feeding but wakes up when moved to the infant's crib. What is the most appropriate response for the nurse to make?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Encouraging the baby to fall asleep in the crib while still awake can help establish healthy sleep habits and reduce night waking.
Question 5 of 5
The LPN is assessing for fontanels on the head of a 6-month-old. Which fontanel is expected to still be present?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Anterior. The anterior fontanel usually remains open until about 12-18 months of age, while the posterior fontanel closes by 2-3 months. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as the posterior fontanel closes by 2-3 months of age, and the sphenoid and lambdoid fontanels are not typically assessed in routine infant head examinations.
