FNP Pediatric Practice Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Biopsy is not usually performed for a child with suspicion of Wilms tumor EXCEPT
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Presence of intratumoral calcifications may warrant biopsy to rule out other diagnoses.
Question 2 of 5
Which patient would benefit most from a capped IV catheter that is used intermittently rather than continuously?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The elderly patient who is receiving a diuretic for fluid overload would benefit most from a capped IV catheter used intermittently rather than continuously. Diuretics cause the body to expel excess fluid, so the patient may require intermittent IV fluid replacement to maintain hydration while avoiding overloading the system with excessive fluids. By using the IV catheter intermittently, healthcare providers can closely monitor the patient's fluid status and adjust fluid administration as needed to prevent dehydration or fluid overload. This approach allows for more precise management of the patient's fluid balance compared to continuous IV infusion.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is preparing to test a school-age child's vision. Which eye chart should the nurse use?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The nurse should use the Snellen letter chart to test a school-age child's vision. The Snellen chart is specifically designed to assess distance vision by having the child read rows of letters of various sizes from a specific distance. This chart is commonly used for vision screenings and has standardized letter sizes that help determine visual acuity. The other options listed - Denver Eye Screening Test, Allen picture card test, and Ishihara vision test - are not typically used for testing visual acuity in the same way the Snellen chart is.
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is reviewing acid-base laboratory data on a newborn admitted to the NICU for meconium aspiration. Which laboratory values should the nurse report to the physician? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: pH: 7.35 - This pH value is within the normal range for a newborn and does not indicate acidosis or alkalosis.
Question 5 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer routine immunizations to a 4-month-old infant. The infant is currently up to date on all previously recommended immunizations. Which immunizations will the nurse prepare to administer? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A 4-month-old infant who is up to date on routine immunizations would not need the Measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), Varicella, or Haemophilus influenzae type b (HIB) vaccines at this time. These vaccines are typically administered at older ages based on the recommended immunization schedule.
