RN ATI Pediatric Nursing Exam (70 NGN Questions with Answers) -Nurselytic

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Provide a pacifier coated with an oral sucrose solution prior to the injections. This is an appropriate action for atraumatic care because it helps to reduce pain and distress during procedures, such as injections, by utilizing non-pharmacological comfort measures. The sucrose solution on the pacifier helps to soothe and distract the child, making the experience less traumatic.


Choice A (Apply EMLA cream immediately before injections) is incorrect because while EMLA cream numbs the skin, it does not address the psychological aspect of pain and distress associated with procedures.


Choice C (Inject the immunizations into the deltoid muscle) is incorrect because the location of injection does not directly relate to atraumatic care.


Choice D (Use a 20-gauge needle for the injections) is incorrect because the size of the needle does not address the psychological comfort of the child during the procedure.
