7. Which factor most impacts the type of injury a child is susceptible to, according to the child’s
age?
a. Physical health of the child
b. Developmental level of the child
c. Educational level of the child
d. Number of responsible adults in the home
ANS: B
The child’s developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur. The
child’s physical health may facilitate the child’s recovery from an injury but does not impact
the type of injury. Educational level is related to developmental level, but it is not as
important as the child’s developmental level in determining the type of injury. The number of
responsible adults in the home may affect the number of unintentional injuries, but the type of
injury is related to the child’s developmental stage.

8. Which is now referred to as the “new morbidity”?
a. Limitations in the major activities of daily living
b. Unintentional injuries that cause chronic health problems
c. Discoveries of new therapies to treat health problems
d. Behavioral, social, and educational problems that alter health
NURSINGTB.COM
ANS: D
The new morbidity reflects the behavioral, social, and educational problems that interfere with
the child’s social and academic development. It is currently estimated that the incidence of
these issues is from 5% to 30%. Limitations in major activities of daily living and
unintentional injuries that result in chronic health problems are included in morbidity data.
Discovery of new therapies would be reflected in changes in morbidity data over time.

9. A nurse on a pediatric unit is practicing family-centered care. Which is most descriptive of the
care the nurse is delivering?
a. Taking over total care of the child to reduce stress on the family
b. Encouraging family dependence on health care systems
c. Recognizing that the family is the constant in a child’s life
d. Excluding families from the decision-making process
ANS: C
The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support.
Family-centered care recognizes the family as the constant in the child’s life. Taking over
total care does not include the family in the process and may increase stress instead of
reducing stress. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the health care
system. The family is expected to be part of the decision-making process.

10. The nurse is preparing an in-service education to staff about atraumatic care for pediatric
patients. Which intervention should the nurse include?
a. Prepare the child for separation from parents during hospitalization by reviewing a
video.
b. Prepare the child before any unfamiliar treatment or procedure by demonstrating
on a stuffed animal.
c. Help the child accept the loss of control associated with hospitalization.
d. Help the child accept pain that is connected with a treatment or procedure.
ANS: B
Preparing the child for any unfamiliar treatments, controlling pain, allowing privacy,
providing play activities for expression of fear and aggression, providing choices, and
respecting cultural differences are components of atraumatic care. In the provision of
atraumatic care, the separation of child from parents during hospitalization is minimized. The
nurse should promote a sense of control for the child. Preventing and minimizing bodily
injury and pain are major components of atraumatic care.

11. Which is most suggestive that a nurse has a nontherapeutic relationship with a patient and
family? NURSINGTB.COM
a. Staff is concerned about the nurse’s actions with the patient and family.
b. Staff assignments allow the nurse to care for same patient and family over an
extended time.
c. Nurse is able to withdraw emotionally when emotional overload occurs but still
remains committed.
d. Nurse uses teaching skills to instruct patient and family rather than doing
everything for them.
ANS: A
An clue to a nontherapeutic staff-patient relationship is concern of other staff members.
Allowing the nurse to care for the same patient over time would be therapeutic for the patient
and family. Nurses who are able to somewhat withdraw emotionally can protect themselves
while providing therapeutic care. Nurses using teaching skills to instruct patient and family
will assist in transitioning the child and family to self-care.
