Question 1 of 5

A mother reported to you that her 6-year-old child is suffering from diarrhea. Which of the following advice will you give to the mother?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: When a child is suffering from diarrhea, it is essential to continue breastfeeding day and night to maintain hydration and provide necessary nutrients. Stopping formula milk for 6 hours (choice B) is not the recommended approach as it may lead to a lack of essential nutrients during this critical time. Giving breast milk together with oral rehydration salts (choice C) can help replenish lost fluids and electrolytes, making it a suitable recommendation. Therefore, advising the mother to follow both options A and C is the most appropriate approach to manage the child's condition effectively.

A mother reported to you that her 6-year-old child is suffering from diarrhea. Which of the following advice will you give to the mother?

Question 3 of 5

Which of the following is NOT a function of hormones?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Hormones play various roles in the body, such as promoting growth and beauty, maintaining body temperature, and fighting infections. However, producing new offspring is not a direct function of hormones. Reproduction is primarily regulated by other factors like the reproductive system. Choice B is incorrect because hormones can indeed influence growth but not specifically 'beauty.' Choice C is incorrect as hormones can help regulate body temperature indirectly. Choice D is incorrect as hormones like cytokines can be involved in the body's immune response to fight infections.

Question 4 of 5

An 18-month-old child presents with fever, nasal flaring, intercostal retractions, and a respiratory rate of 50 bpm. What is the most appropriate nursing diagnosis?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In this case, the child is showing signs of respiratory distress, such as nasal flaring, intercostal retractions, and an increased respiratory rate. These are indicative of an ineffective breathing pattern. The child's compromised respiratory function requires immediate attention and intervention, making 'Ineffective breathing pattern' the most appropriate nursing diagnosis. Choices A, C, and D do not address the respiratory distress the child is experiencing and are not the priority in this situation.

Question 5 of 5

The student nurse has performed a gestational age assessment of an infant and finds the infant to be at 32 weeks. On which set of characteristics is the nurse basing this assessment?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. At 30 to 32 weeks' gestation, the clitoris is prominent, and the labia minora are enlarging. The labia majora are small and widely separated. As gestational age increases, the labia majora increase in size. At 36 to 40 weeks, they almost cover the clitoris. At 40 weeks and beyond, the labia majora cover the labia minora and clitoris. Choices A, C, and D do not align with the characteristic features seen at 32 weeks of gestation, making them incorrect.
