ATI Nur235 Pediatrics Final Exam Questions

Extract:

Newborn admitted with myelomeningocele.


Question 1 of 5

A newborn has been admitted to the intensive care unit with a diagnosis of myelomeningocele. The nurse could expect which of the following with the disorder?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Partial to complete paralysis in the lower extremities. A myelomeningocele is a type of neural tube defect where the spinal cord and vertebral column do not close properly during fetal development. This results in damage to the spinal cord, leading to paralysis below the level of the defect. This is due to the disruption of nerve signals between the brain and lower extremities.


Choice B is incorrect as unilateral port-wine birthmark is associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome, not myelomeningocele.
Choice C is incorrect as a protruding sac containing abdominal contents is seen in omphalocele, not myelomeningocele.
Choice D is incorrect as a fusion of cranial suture lines is seen in craniosynostosis, not myelomeningocele.
