ATI NURSING CARE OF CHILDREN PROCORED EXAM 2019 QUESTIONS AND 100%
CORRECT ANSWERS WITH RATIONALES




1. A nurse in an emergency department is caring for a 4-year-old child who has burns to the neck and face following a
house fire. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?

A. Cover the child's wounds with a clean, dry cloth.
B. Establish IV access for the child with a large-bore catheter.
C. Provide reassurance to the
child's parents.
D. Determine the child's
breathing pattern.

Determine the child's breathing pattern.

The nurse should apply the ABC priority setting framework. 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. Determining the child's
breathing pattern is the first action the nurse should take. 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.
2. A nurse is providing teaching to the parent of a 2-year-old toddler about nutrition. Which of the following statements
by the parent indicates an understanding of the teaching?
A. "My child should consume 1,000 calories per day."
B. "My child should have 4 ounces of protein per day."
C. "I should give my child 32 ounces (4 cups) of milk per day."
D. "I should feed my child 4 ounces (1/2 cup) of


vegetables per day." "My child should consume 1,000

calories per day."

Toddlers who are 2 years old should consume 1,000 calories daily.
3. A nurse is providing discharge teaching to the parent of a school-age child who has leukemia and is receiving
chemotherapy. Which of the following statements by the parent indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. "I will take my child's rectal temperature daily."
B. "I will make sure my child gets his MMR
vaccine this week." C. "I will inspect my
child's mouth every day for sores."
D. "I will allow my child to ride his

bicycle tomorrow." "I will inspect my

,child's mouth every day for sores."

A child who has leukemia is at an increased risk for mucositis; therefore, the parent should inspect the child's mouth daily for
lesions or ulcerations.
