Question 2 of 5
The nurse is preparing an in-service education to staff about atraumatic care for pediatric patients. Which intervention should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Atraumatic care for pediatric patients aims to minimize emotional and psychological distress during hospitalization or medical procedures. Option B, preparing the child before any unfamiliar treatment or procedure by demonstrating it on a stuffed animal, is an appropriate intervention. This technique allows the child to understand what will happen, reduces fear of the unknown, and promotes a sense of control. By using a stuffed animal as a teaching tool, the nurse can provide clear information to the child in a non-threatening way, helping to alleviate anxiety and stress. This intervention encourages trust between the child and healthcare provider and promotes a positive healthcare experience for the pediatric patient.
Question 3 of 5
Which age group should the pediatric nurse recognize as being vulnerable to events that lessen their feeling of control and power?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Infants are the age group that the pediatric nurse should recognize as being vulnerable to events that lessen their feeling of control and power. Infants are entirely dependent on others for their care and are still developing their sense of self and autonomy. They are unable to communicate their needs effectively and rely on caregivers to interpret and respond to their cues. Any disruptions in routine or changes in their environment can make infants feel insecure and powerless. Therefore, the pediatric nurse should be particularly attentive to the emotional needs and sense of control of infants when providing care.

Question 5 of 5
How are young people with anorexia nervosa often described?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Young people with anorexia nervosa are often described as independent. This is because individuals with anorexia nervosa tend to exhibit strong willpower and control over their behavior, often making independent decisions related to their eating habits and body image. They may resist help or intervention, preferring to maintain control over their food intake and weight loss. This independence can make it challenging to address and treat anorexia nervosa effectively, as individuals may be resistant to seeking or accepting help.
