ATI RN Pediatric Assessment 2022 Questions

Extract:

A 2-week-old infant


Question 1 of 5

A parent brings a 2-week-old infant to a clinic for a phenylketonuria rescreening blood test. The test indicates a serum phenylalanine level of 1 mg/dL (60.5 mcmol/L). The nurse reviews this result and makes which interpretation?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: It is negative. At 2 weeks of age, a serum phenylalanine level of 1 mg/dL (60.5 mcmol/L) in an infant is within the normal range. This indicates that the infant does not have phenylketonuria (PKU). The test result being negative means that the infant's phenylalanine metabolism is normal.
Choice A is incorrect because the result is clear and falls within the normal range.
Choice C is incorrect as rescreening is not necessary at this point due to the normal result.
Choice D is incorrect as a positive result would indicate elevated phenylalanine levels, which is not the case here.
