ATI Nursing Care of Children Questions

Question 1 of 5

Two 3-year-old clients are playing together in a hospital playroom. One is working on a puzzle, while the other is stacking blocks. Which type of play is this?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, parallel play. Parallel play is observed when children play alongside each other but do not directly interact. In this scenario, each child is engaged in their own activity without engaging or influencing each other's play, which characterizes parallel play. Cooperative play (choice A) involves children playing together towards a common goal, which is not evident in the given situation. Solitary play (choice B) is when a child plays alone, unrelated to the presence of others. Associative play (choice D) involves more interaction and sharing of toys between children, which is not happening in the described play scenario.

Question 2 of 5

Which heart sound is produced by vibrations within the heart chambers or in the major arteries from the back-and-forth flow of blood?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A murmur is produced by turbulent blood flow within the heart or major arteries, resulting in audible vibrations.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is performing an otoscopic examination on a child. Which are normal findings the nurse should expect? (Select all that apply.)

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A well-defined light reflex, a small concave spot, and a grayish, nontransparent tympanic membrane are normal findings during an otoscopic examination in a child.

Question 4 of 5

Which parameter correlates best with measurements of total muscle mass?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Upper arm circumference correlates best with total muscle mass because it includes both muscle and fat components, making it a reliable indicator of muscle mass.

Question 5 of 5

Which explains the importance of detecting strabismus in young children?
