  1. What is the major cause of death for children in the United States?
    a. Heart disease
    b. Childhood cancer
    c. 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.

  2. Parents of a hospitalized toddler ask the nurse, \u201cWhat is meant by family-centered care?\u201d The nurse
    should respond with which statement?
    a. Family-centered care reduces the effect of cultural diversity on the family.
    b. Family-centered care encourages family dependence on the health care system.
    c. Family-centered care recognizes that the family is the constant in a child\u2019s life.
    d. Family-centered care avoids expecting families to be part of the decision-making
    process.
    ANS: C
    The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support. Familycentered care recognizes the family as the constant in the child\u2019s life. The family should be enabled
    and empowered to work with the health care system and is expected to be part of the decision-making
    process. The nurse should also support the family\u2019s cultural diversity, not reduce its effect.

  3. 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
    d. Gathering all evidence that applies to the child\u2019s health and family situation
    ANS: B
    EBP helps focus on measurable outcomes; the use of demonstrated, effective interventions; and
    questioning the best approach. EBP involves decision making based on the integration of the best
    research evidence combined with clinical expertise and patient values.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    1. The nurse is talking to a group of parents of school-age children at an after-school program about
      childhood health problems. Which statement should the nurse include in the teaching?
      a. Childhood obesity is the most common nutritional problem among children.
      b. Immunization rates are the same among children of different races and ethnicity.
      c. Dental caries is not a problem commonly seen in children since the introduction of
      fluorinated water.
      d. Mental health problems are typically not seen in school-age children but may be
      diagnosed in adolescents.
      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 child\u2019s 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.

    2. 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.

    3. Which situation denotes a nontherapeutic nurse\u2013patient\u2013family relationship?
      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 family\u2019s
      dependence on health care providers.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Wong’s Nursing Care of Infants and Children 12th Edition by Hockenberry Test Bank
      ANS: B
      Criticizing parents for not visiting in shift report is nontherapeutic and shows an under involvement
      with the parents. Reading a fairy tale is a therapeutic and age-appropriate action. Discussing feelings
      of an emotional draw with a fellow nurse is therapeutic and shows a willingness to understand
      feelings. Working with parents to decrease dependence on health care providers is therapeutic and
      helps to empower the family.

      1. The nurse is aware that which age-group is at risk for childhood injury because of the cognitive
        characteristic of magical and egocentric thinking?
        a. Preschool
        b. Young school age
        c. Middle school age
        d. Adolescent
        ANS: A
        Preschool children have the cognitive characteristic of magical and egocentric thinking, meaning they
        are unable to comprehend danger to self or others. Young and middle school-aged children have
        transitional cognitive processes, and they may attempt dangerous acts without detailed planning but
        recognize danger to themselves or others. Adolescents have formal operational cognitive processes and
        are preoccupied with abstract thinking.

      2. The school nurse is assessing children for risk factors related to childhood injuries. Which child has
        the most risk factors related to childhood injury?
        a. Female, multiple siblings, stable home life
        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 girl who reacts negatively to new situations but has no previous
        serious illnesses has only one risk factor.

      3. 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<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Wong’s Nursing Care of Infants and Children 12th Edition by Hockenberry Test Bank
        b. Autonomy
        c. Beneficence
        d. Nonmaleficence
        ANS: B
        Autonomy is the patient\u2019s 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 patient\u2019s well-being. Nonmaleficence is the obligation to minimize or prevent harm.

        1. Which responsibilities are included in the pediatric nurse\u2019s promotion of the health and well-being of
          children? (Select all that apply.)
          a. Promoting disease prevention
          b. Providing financial assistance
          c. Providing support and counseling
          d. Establishing lifelong friendships
          e. Establishing a therapeutic relationship
          f. Participating in ethical decision making
          ANS: A, C, E, F
          The pediatric nurse\u2019s role includes promoting disease prevention, providing support and counseling,
          establishing a therapeutic relationship, and participating in ethical decision making; a pediatric nurse
          does not need to establish lifelong friendships or provide financial assistance to children and their
          families. Boundaries should be set and clear.

        2. The nurse is conducting a teaching session for parents on nutrition. Which characteristics of families
          should the nurse consider, that can cause families to struggle in providing adequate nutrition? (Select
          all that apply.)
          a. Homelessness
          b. Lower income
          c. Migrant status
          d. Working parents
          e. Single parent status
          ANS: A, B, C
          Families that struggle with lower incomes, homelessness, and migrant status generally lack the
          resources to provide their children with adequate food intake, nutritious foods such as fresh fruits and
          vegetables, and appropriate protein intake. Working parents and single parent status do not mean the
          families will struggle to provide adequate nutrition.
