extrapolated from analyzing the morbidity statistics.

8. Parents of a hospitalized toddler ask the nurse, What is meant by family-centered care? The nurse should

,a. Family-centered care reduces the effect of cultural diversity on the family.
b. Family-centered care encourages family dependence on the health care system.
c. Family-centered care recognizes that the family is the constant in a childs life.
d. Family-centered care avoids expecting families to be part of the decision-making process.

The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support. Family-centered
care recognizes the family as the constant in the childs life. The family should be enabled and empowered to
work with the health care system and is expected to be part of the decision-making process. The nurse should
also support the familys cultural diversity, not reduce its effect.

10. Evidence-based practice (EBP), a decision-making model, is best described as which?
a. Using information in textbooks to guide care
b. Combining knowledge with clinical experience and intuition
c. Using a professional code of ethics as a means for decision making
,d. Gathering all evidence that applies to the childs health and family situation
ANSWER: B
EBP helps focus on measurable outcomes; the use of demonstrated, effective interventions; and questioning
what is the best approach. EBP involves decision making based on data, not all evidence on a particular
situation, and involves the latest available data. Nurses can use textbooks to determine areas of concern and
potential involvement.

11. Which best describes signs and symptoms as part of a nursing diagnosis?
a. Description of potential risk factors
b. Identification of actual health problems
c. Human response to state of illness or health
d. Cues and clusters derived from patient assessment
ANSWER: D
Signs and symptoms are the cues and clusters of defining characteristics that are derived from a patient
assessment and indicate actual health problems. The first part of the nursing diagnosis is the problem
statement, also known as the human response to the state of illness or health. The identification of actual health
problems may be part of the medical diagnosis. The nursing diagnosis is based on the human response to these
problems. The human response is therefore a component of the nursing diagnostic statement. Potential risk
factors are used to identify nursing care needs to avoid the development of an actual health problem when a
potential one exists.

12. The nurse is talking to a group of parents of school-age children at an after-school program about
childhood health problems. Which statement should the nurse include in the teaching?
a. Childhood obesity is the most common nutritional problem among children.
b. Immunization rates are the same among children of different races and ethnicity.
c. Dental caries is not a problem commonly seen in children since the introduction of fluoridated
water.
d. Mental health problems are typically not seen in school-age children but may be diagnosed in
adolescents.
, ANSWER: A
When teaching parents of school-age children about childhood health problems, the nurse should include
information about childhood obesity because it is the most common problem among children and is associated
with type 2 diabetes. Teaching parents about ways to prevent obesity is important to include. Immunization
rates differ depending on the childs race and ethnicity; dental caries continues to be a common chronic disease
in childhood; and mental health problems are seen in children as young as school age, not just in adolescents.

13. The nurse is planning care for a hospitalized preschool-aged child. Which should the nurse plan to ensure
atraumatic care?
a. Limit explanation of procedures because the child is preschool aged.
b. Ask that all family members leave the room when performing procedures.
c. Allow the child to choose the type of juice to drink with the administration of oral medications.
d. Explain that EMLA cream cannot be used for the morning lab draw because there is not time for it
to be effective.
ANSWER: C
The overriding goal in providing atraumatic care is first, do no harm. Allowing the child a choice of juice to
drink when taking oral medications provides the child with a sense of control. The preschool child should be
prepared before procedures, so limiting explanations of procedures would increase anxiety. The family should
be allowed to stay with the child during procedures, minimizing stress. Lidocaine/prilocaine (EMLA) cream is
a topical local anesthetic. The nurse should plan to use the prescribed cream in time for morning laboratory
draws to minimize pain.
