ATI Capstone Class Exam Week 12 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a newborn who has developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Asymmetric thigh folds. In DDH, there is an abnormal formation of the hip joint which can lead to dislocation. Asymmetric thigh folds result from the shortened thigh muscles on the affected side due to the dislocation. This finding is indicative of DDH as it reflects the displacement of the femoral head. The other choices are incorrect because an inwardly turned foot (
A) is associated with clubfoot, absent plantar reflexes (
B) may indicate neurological issues, and a lengthened thigh (
C) is not a typical finding in DDH.
