Question 1 of 5
During a school screening, a nurse notices small bruises on the anterior and posterior ribs of an 8-year-old Asian child. The nurse should ask the child:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is to ask if the family practices coining. In Asian cultures, coining is a traditional practice believed to draw infections from the body. It involves rubbing a heated coin on the chest and torso, which can cause bruising similar to what the nurse noticed on the child's ribs. This question is important to differentiate between cultural practices and potential child abuse.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because assuming abuse without considering cultural practices can lead to misinterpretation and inappropriate actions. It's crucial for healthcare providers to be culturally sensitive and gather all relevant information before making conclusions.
