Question 2 of 5
Donna needs further teaching about the use of partograph if she said to her CI that:
Correct Answer: B

It is essential for early detection of complications. Choice A is incorrect as the partograph should be used from the onset of labor regardless of the cervical dilation. Choice C is incorrect as the cervical dilation should be plotted in centimeters, not using 'x'. Choice D is incorrect as referral should be based on the overall assessment of the labor progress, not solely on reaching the action line on the partograph.
Question 3 of 5
Malnutrition continues to be a public health concern in the country. The common nutritional deficiencies are the following, except:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Calcium. Calcium deficiency is not a common nutritional deficiency in the context of malnutrition. Malnutrition usually leads to deficiencies in Vitamin A, Iron, and Iodine due to inadequate intake of these nutrients. Calcium deficiency is less common in malnutrition cases as it is mainly associated with specific conditions like osteoporosis or lactose intolerance. Therefore, the common nutritional deficiencies in malnutrition do not typically include Calcium.
Question 4 of 5

Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step 1: Retinol is essential for child growth and development, especially for vision and immune function. Step 2: GP focuses on micronutrient supplements, and retinol is a crucial vitamin for preschoolers. Step 3: Retinol deficiency can lead to serious health issues in children. Step 4: Iron, iodine, and calcium are important too, but for GP, retinol is the priority. Summary: Retinol is the correct answer as it is vital for child health during Garantisadong Pambata, while the other choices are important but not the primary focus of this specific program.
Question 5 of 5
The Food Fortification Act of 2000 provides for the mandatory fortification of staple foods, including:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Flour with iron. This is because iron deficiency is a common issue globally, and fortifying flour with iron can help address this problem efficiently. Cooking oil with vitamin A (B) is not typically a staple food, and vitamin A is usually added to oil voluntarily. Refined sugar with iron (C) is not a common fortification practice due to concerns about the interaction between iron and sugar. Rice with vitamin A (D) is a feasible option, but fortifying flour with iron is a more established and effective method for addressing iron deficiency in the population.
