A newborn


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a newborn and assessing newborn reflexes. To elicit the Moro reflex, the nurse should take which of the following actions?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A.
To elicit the Moro reflex, the nurse should perform a sharp hand clap near the infant. This reflex is characterized by the infant's arms flinging out and then coming back towards the body in response to a sudden movement or loud noise. Performing a sharp hand clap near the infant triggers this reflex due to the sudden auditory stimulus, causing the infant to display the characteristic arm movements. Holding the newborn vertically (
B) or placing a finger at the base of the toes (
C) do not elicit the Moro reflex specifically. Turning the newborn's head quickly to one side (
D) is associated with the tonic neck reflex, not the Moro reflex.
