FNP Pediatric Practice Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
At what age does an infant start to recognize familiar faces and objects, such as a feeding bottle?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: At around 2 months of age, infants typically start to show signs of recognizing familiar faces and objects, such as a feeding bottle. At this stage, their vision and cognitive abilities have developed enough for them to begin differentiating and responding to familiar stimuli in their environment. This recognition is an important developmental milestone in an infant's early cognitive and social development.
Question 2 of 5
A 10-year-old girl needs to have another intravenous (IV) line started. She keeps telling the nurse, "Wait a minute" and "I'm not ready." The nurse should recognize this as which description?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: This is normal behavior for a school-age child. School-age children often assert their independence and control in various situations, such as medical procedures. It is common for children in this age group to express hesitation or resistance when faced with something uncomfortable or unfamiliar, like starting an IV line. The child's behavior of saying "Wait a minute" and "I'm not ready" is a typical response for a 10-year-old girl and does not necessarily indicate manipulation, punishment perception, or behavior typical of younger children. In this case, the nurse should acknowledge the child's feelings, provide reassurance, and offer explanations to help her feel more comfortable and in control of the situation.

Question 4 of 5
What usually triggers the weight loss of anorexia nervosa?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Weight loss in anorexia nervosa is commonly triggered by various factors, including traumatic interpersonal conflicts. These conflicts may involve strained relationships with family members, friends, or other individuals, contributing to emotional distress and disturbances in eating behaviors. Individuals with anorexia nervosa may engage in extreme restriction of food intake as a way to cope with and gain a sense of control over the challenging emotions arising from these conflicts. It is important to address and work through these underlying interpersonal issues through therapy and support in the treatment of anorexia nervosa.
Question 5 of 5
When is isotretinoin (Accutane) indicated for the treatment of acne during adolescence?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Isotretinoin (Accutane) is a potent medication used for severe acne that has not responded to other treatments, such as topical medications or antibiotics. It is typically considered as a last resort due to its potential side effects and risks. Adolescents with resistant, severe acne who have not seen improvement with other therapies may be good candidates for isotretinoin treatment. It is important for the prescribing healthcare provider to carefully assess the severity of the acne and weigh the benefits against the potential risks before initiating isotretinoin therapy.
