A 9-month-old infant.
Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a clinic is assessing a 9-month-old infant. Which of the following findings requires further intervention?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Positive Moro reflex. At 9 months, the Moro reflex should have disappeared. A positive Moro reflex at this age could indicate neurological immaturity or dysfunction. The other choices are age-appropriate reflexes:
A) Doll's eye reflex should be negative as it indicates proper brainstem function,
B) Crawl reflex should be negative by this age as it disappears around 4-6 months, and
C) Babinski reflex should be positive as it is normal until around 1 year of age. In summary, a positive Moro reflex at 9 months is concerning and requires further intervention to assess neurological development.
