MULTIPLE CHOICE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. A nurse is planning a teaching session for parents of preschool children. Which
    statement explains why the nurse should include information about morbidity and
    mortality?
    a. Life-span statistics are included in the data.
    b. It explains effectiveness of treatment.
    c. Cost-effective treatment is detailed for the general population.
    d. High-risk age groups for certain disorders or hazards are identified.
    ANS: D
    Analysis of morbidity and mortality data provides the parents with information about
    which groups of individuals are at risk for which health problems. Life-span statistics is a
    part of the mortality data. Treatment modalities and cost are not included in morbidity
    and mortality data.

    1. Which leading cause of death topic should the nurse emphasize to a group of AfricanAmerican boys ranging in ages 15 to 19 years?
      a. Suicide
      b. Cancer
      c. Firearm homicide
      d. Occupational injuries
      ANS: C
      Firearm homicide is the second overall cause of death in this age group and the leading
      cause of death in African-American males. Suicide is the third-leading cause of death in
      this population. Cancer, although a major health problem, is the fourth-leading cause of
      death in this age group. Occupational injuries do not contribute to a significant death rate
      for this age group.

    2. Which is the major cause of death for children older than 1 year?
      a. Cancer
      b. Heart disease
      c. Unintentional injuries
      d. Congenital anomalies
      ANS: C
      Unintentional injuries (accidents) are the leading cause of death after age 1 year through
      adolescence. Congenital anomalies are the leading cause of death in those younger than 1
      year. Cancer ranks either second or fourth, depending on the age group, and heart disease
      ranks fifth in the majority of the age groups.

      age from 1 to 14?
      a. Mechanical suffocation
      b. Drowning
      c. Motorvehicle-related fatalities
      d. Fire- and burn-related fatalities
      ANS: C
      Motorvehicle-related fatalities are the leading cause of death for females ranging in age
      from 1 to 14, either as passengers or as pedestrians. Mechanical suffocation is fourth or
      fifth, depending on the age. Drowning is the second- or third-leading cause of death,
      depending on the age. Fire- and burn-related fatalities are the second-leading cause of
      death.

    4. Which factor most impacts the type of injury a child is susceptible to, according to the
      childs age?
      a. Physical health of the child
      b. Developmental level of the child
      c. Educational level of the child
      d. Number of responsible adults in the home
      ANS: B
      The childs developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur. The
      childs physical health may facilitate the childs recovery from an injury but does not
      impact the type of injury. Educational level is related to developmental level, but it is not
      as important as the childs developmental level in determining the type of injury. The
      number of responsible adults in the home may affect the number of unintentional injuries,
      but the type of injury is related to the childs developmental stage.

    5. Which is now referred to as the new morbidity?
      a. Limitations in the major activities of daily living
      b. Unintentional injuries that cause chronic health problems
      c. Discoveries of new therapies to treat health problems
      d. Behavioral, social, and educational problems that alter health
      ANS: D
      The new morbidity reflects the behavioral, social, and educational problems that interfere
      with the childs social and academic development. It is currently estimated that the
      incidence of these issues is from 5% to 30%. Limitations in major activities of daily
      living and unintentional injuries that result in chronic health problems are included in
      morbidity data. Discovery of new therapies would be reflected in changes in morbidity
      data over time.

    6. A nurse on a pediatric unit is practicing family-centered care. Which is most
      descriptive of the care the nurse is delivering?
      a. Taking over total care of the child to reduce stress on the family
      b. Encouraging family dependence on health care systems
      c. Recognizing that the family is the constant in a childs life
      d. Excluding families from 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. Taking over
      total care does not include the family in the process and may increase stress instead of
      reducing stress. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the health
      care system. The family is expected to be part of the decision-making process.

    7. The nurse is preparing an in-service education to staff about atraumatic care for
      pediatric patients. Which intervention should the nurse include?
      a. Prepare the child for separation from parents during hospitalization by reviewing a
      video.
      b. Prepare the child before any unfamiliar treatment or procedure by demonstrating on a
      stuffed animal.
      c. Help the child accept the loss of control associated with hospitalization.
      d. Help the child accept pain that is connected with a treatment or procedure.
      ANS: B
      Preparing the child for any unfamiliar treatments, controlling pain, allowing privacy,
      providing play activities for expression of fear and aggression, providing choices, and
      respecting cultural differences are components of atraumatic care. In the provision of
      atraumatic care, the separation of child from parents during hospitalization is minimized.
      The nurse should promote a sense of control for the child. Preventing and minimizing
      bodily injury and pain are major components of atraumatic care.

    8. Which is most suggestive that a nurse has a nontherapeutic relationship with a patient
      and family?
      a. Staff is concerned about the nurses actions with the patient and family.
      b. Staff assignments allow the nurse to care for same patient and family over an extended
      time.
      c. Nurse is able to withdraw emotionally when emotional overload occurs but still
      remains committed.
      d. Nurse uses teaching skills to instruct patient and family rather than doing everything
      for them.
      ANS: A
      An important clue to a nontherapeutic staff-patient relationship is concern of other staff
      members. Allowing the nurse to care for the same patient over time would be therapeutic
      for the patient and family. Nurses who are able to somewhat withdraw emotionally can
      protect themselves while providing therapeutic care. Nurses using teaching skills to
      instruct patient and family will assist in transitioning the child and family to self-care.

    9. Which is most descriptive of clinical reasoning?
      a. A simple developmental process
      b. Purposeful and goal-directed
      c. Based on deliberate and irrational thought
      d. Assists individuals in guessing what is most appropriate
      ANS: B
      Clinical reasoning is a complex, developmental process based on rational and deliberate
      thought. Clinical reasoning is not a developmental process. Clinical reasoning is based on
      rational and deliberate thought. Clinical reasoning is not a guessing process.
