Question 2 of 5
Which tool measures body fat most accurately?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Calipers are considered the most accurate tool for measuring body fat percentage when used properly. Calipers work by measuring skinfold thickness at various locations on the body, and this measurement is then used in specific equations to calculate body fat percentage. While the other tools mentioned can provide some insights into body composition, they are not as precise as calipers when it comes to accurately measuring body fat percentage.
Question 3 of 5
A 12-year-old male has short stature because of a constitutional growth delay. What should the nurse be the most concerned about?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The nurse should be most concerned about the child's self-esteem and sense of competence. A 12-year-old male with short stature due to a constitutional growth delay may experience feelings of inadequacy or embarrassment because of his height. It is important for the nurse to address these emotional aspects of the condition and support the child in developing a positive self-image. By promoting the child's self-esteem and sense of competence, the nurse can help the child navigate any challenges associated with his height and build confidence in his abilities and worth as an individual.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is doing an assessment on a newborn. Which is characteristic of a newborn's vision at birth and an expected finding during the assessment?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: At birth, a newborn's vision is not fully developed. However, one of the characteristics of a newborn's vision is that their pupils are able to react to light. This response helps to protect the newborn's developing eyes from excessive light exposure. During a newborn assessment, it is expected that the nurse will observe the pupil constriction in response to a bright light source, indicating a normal functioning of the pupillary reflex. This physiological response is vital for assessing the newborn's neurological integrity and visual function.
Question 5 of 5
A woman delivers a 3,250 g neonate at 42 weeks' gestation. Which physical finding is expected during an examination if this neonate?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A neonate born at 42 weeks' gestation, also known as post-term, is expected to have skin that appears leathery, cracked, and wrinkled due to prolonged exposure to the amniotic fluid in utero. This is a common physical finding in post-term neonates due to the decreased amount of vernix caseosa and amniotic fluid present on the skin at birth. Abundant lanugo (fine hair), absence of sole creases, and breast bud development are more commonly seen in preterm or term newborns, rather than post-term newborns.
