ATI Nursing Care of Children Proctored Exam
A nurse in the emergency department is caring for a 2-year-old child who
was found by his parents crying and holding a container of toilet bowl
cleaner. The child's lips are edematous and inflamed, and he is drooling.
Which of the following is the priority action by the nurse?
a. Remove the child's contaminated clothing.
b. Check the child's respiratory status.
c. Administer an antidote to the child.
d. Establish IV access for the child.
Rationale: The nurse should apply the ABC priority-setting framework
when answering this item. This framework emphasizes the basic core of
human functioning: having an open airway, being able to breathe in
adequate amounts of oxygen, and circulating oxygen to the body's
organs via the blood. An alteration in any of these can indicate a threat
to life, and is therefore the nurse’s priority concern. When applying the
ABC priority setting framework, airway is always the highest priority
because the airway must be clear and open for oxygen exchange to
occur. Breathing is the second highest priority in the ABC priority setting
framework because adequate ventilatory effort is essential in order for
oxygen exchange to occur. Circulation is the third highest priority in the
ABC priority setting framework because delivery of oxygen to critical
organs only occurs if the heart and blood vessels are capable of
efficiently carrying oxygen to them. The nurse observes that the child’s
lips are edematous and inflamed and that he is drooling. These findings
indicate that the child might have swelling of the oral cavity and
pharynx, which can result in a compromised airway.
2. A nurse is teaching a parent of a 12-month old child about
development during the toddleryears. Which of the following statements
should the nurse include?
a. "Your child should be referring to himself using the appropriate
pronoun by 18 months of age."
b. "A toddler's interest in looking at pictures occurs at 20
months of age."
c. "A toddler should have daytime control of his bowel and bladder
by 24 months of age."
d. "Your child should be able to scribble spontaneously
