ATI Pediatric Exam Nursing 228 Questions

Extract:

A newborn who is large-for-gestational-age


Question 1 of 5

The nurse prepares to assess a newborn who is considered to be large-for-gestational-age (LGA). Which characteristic would the nurse correlate with this gestational age variation?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: difficulty in arousing to a quiet alert state. LGA newborns are typically born to diabetic mothers and may experience hypoglycemia, leading to lethargy and difficulty in being fully alert. This correlates with the increased size of the newborn due to excess glucose crossing the placenta.
Choice A is a normal birth weight, not indicative of LGA.
Choice B is not characteristic of LGA newborns but rather may indicate a different developmental stage.
Choice D, wasted appearance of extremities, is more indicative of a condition like intrauterine growth restriction, not LGA.
