ATI Capstone Class Exam Week 12 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for a newly delivered breast-feeding infant. Which nursing intervention would best prevent jaundice in this infant?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Encouraging the mother to breastfeed the infant every 2 to 3 hours. Breastfeeding frequently helps prevent jaundice by promoting the excretion of bilirubin through stool. This helps prevent bilirubin buildup in the baby's body, reducing the risk of jaundice. Encouraging frequent breastfeeding also ensures the infant receives adequate hydration, which aids in the elimination of bilirubin.


Choice A is incorrect because supplementing with formula can interfere with breastfeeding and affect bilirubin excretion.
Choice B is incorrect because keeping the infant NPO can lead to dehydration and decreased bilirubin excretion.
Choice D is incorrect because phototherapy is a treatment for jaundice, not prevention.
