Nursing Elites

1. How should a healthcare provider address concerns about a child’s developmental milestones?

• A. Recommend delaying intervention until school age
• B. Provide resources for early intervention services
• C. Suggest dietary changes
• D. Avoid further assessment

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Correct Answer: Providing resources for early intervention services is crucial for addressing developmental concerns and supporting the child's growth and development. Early intervention is key to improving outcomes. Recommending delaying intervention until school age (Choice A) is not advised as addressing issues early leads to better results. Suggesting dietary changes (Choice C) is not the primary approach to addressing developmental milestones. Avoiding further assessment (Choice D) can impede the timely identification and management of developmental delays.

2. What is a common symptom of an upper respiratory infection in children?

• A. Constipation
• B. Excessive vomiting
• C. Nasal congestion
• D. Abdominal pain

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Nasal congestion is a common symptom of an upper respiratory infection in children. It is typically accompanied by cough and sore throat. Constipation (choice A) and excessive vomiting (choice B) are not typical symptoms of upper respiratory infections. Abdominal pain (choice D) is more commonly associated with gastrointestinal issues rather than upper respiratory infections.

3. Why must a child with acute laryngotracheobronchitis be kept NPO?

• A. The epinephrine administration may cause nausea and vomiting
• B. The child is being hydrated with IV fluids
• C. The child may not feel hungry
• D. Rapid respirations pose a risk for aspiration

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In acute laryngotracheobronchitis, rapid respirations increase the risk of aspiration due to compromised airway protection and potential for secretions to enter the lungs. Keeping the child NPO helps prevent the risk of aspiration pneumonia. Choice A is incorrect because epinephrine is not typically used for laryngotracheobronchitis. Choice B is incorrect as hydration with IV fluids does not eliminate the risk of aspiration. Choice C is also incorrect because the child being hungry is not the primary reason for keeping them NPO in this condition.

4. What should the nurse anticipate as challenging in caring for a child with acute glomerulonephritis?

• A. Forced fluids
• B. Increased feedings
• C. Bed rest
• D. Frequent position changes

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Bed rest. Implementing bed rest can be challenging, especially in active children, but it's necessary to manage the symptoms of acute glomerulonephritis. Forced fluids (choice A) may be required to maintain hydration but are not typically challenging. Increased feedings (choice B) and frequent position changes (choice D) are not primary interventions in the care of a child with acute glomerulonephritis.

5. How many vitamins are known to be required in the diet of human beings?

• A. 5
• B. 8
• C. 10
• D. 13

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 13. There are 13 essential vitamins required in the diet of human beings, including vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and the B vitamins. Choice A (5), Choice B (8), and Choice C (10) are incorrect because they do not represent the total number of essential vitamins needed by human beings.
