a. Heart disease

Verified(100% Correct)

b. Childhood cancer

c. Unintentional injuries

d. Congenital

anomalies ANS: C

Unintentional injuries (accidents) are the leading cause of death after age 1 year through adolescence. The leading cause of death for those younger than 1 year is congenital anomalies, and childhood cancers and heart disease cause a significantly lower percentage of deaths in children older than 1 year of age.

  1. In addition to injuries, what are the leading causes of death in adolescents ages 15 to 19 years?

a. Suicide and cancer

b. Suicide and homicide

c. Drowning and cancer

d. Homicide and heart

disease ANS: B

Suicide and homicide account for 16.7% of deaths in this age group. Suicide and cancer account for 10.9% of deaths, heart disease and cancer account for approximately 5.5%, and homicide and heart disease account for 10.9% of the deaths in this age group.

  1. What do mortality statistics describe?

a. Disease occurring regularly within a geographic location

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

c. The prevalence of specific illness in the population at a particular time

d. 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. The nurse should assess which age group for suicide ideation since suicide in which age group is the third leading cause of death?

a. Preschoolers

b. Young school age

c. Middle school age

d. Late school age and

adolescents ANS: D

Verified(100% Correct)

Suicide is the third leading cause of death in children ages 10 to 19 years; therefore, the age group should be late school age and adolescents. Suicide is not one of the leading causes of death for preschool and young or middle school- aged children.

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

a. Using information in textbooks to guide care

b. Combining knowledge with clinical experience and intuition

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

Verified(100% Correct)

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?

a. Description of potential risk factors

b. Identification of actual health problems

c. Human response to state of illness or health

d. 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.

  1. The nurse is talking to a group of parents of school-age children at an

Verified(100% Correct)

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?

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

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

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

d. Explain that EMLA cream cannot be used for the morning lab draw because there is not time for it to be effective.

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.

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

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

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

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

ANS: B

Verified(100% Correct)

b. Male, high activity level, stressful home life

c. Male, even tempered, history of previous injuries

d. 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

illnesses has only one risk factor. DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyzing

a. We should watch for aggressive play.

b. Our child may show lasting symptoms of stress.

c. We know that our child will show caring behaviors.

d. Our child may have difficulty concentrating in school.

Verified(100% Correct)

a. Strong evidence from unbiased observational studies

b. Evidence from randomized clinical trials showed inconsistent results

c. Consistent evidence from well-performed randomized clinical trials

d. Evidence for at least one critical outcome from randomized clinical

trials had serious flaws ANS: B

Evidence from randomized clinical trials with important limitations indicates that the evidence is of moderate quality. Strong evidence from unbiased observational studies and consistent evidence from well-performed randomized clinical trials indicates high quality. Evidence for at least one critical outcome from randomized clinical trials that has serious flaws indicates low quality.

  1. An adolescent patient wants to make decisions about treatment options, along with his parents. Which moral value is the nurse displaying when supporting the adolescent to make decisions?

a. Justice

b. Autonomy

c. Beneficence

d. Nonmalefic

ence ANS: B

Autonomy is the patients right to be self-governing. The adolescent is trying to be autonomous, so the nurse is supporting this value. Justice is the concept of fairness. Beneficence is the obligation to promote the patients well-being. Nonmaleficence is the obligation to minimize or prevent harm.
