description The mission of foster care is to provide for the health, safety, and well-being of children while
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wassisting their families with services to promote reunification. Children entering foster care have frequently
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wexperienced early childhood trauma. More than 70% have a history of abuse, neglect, or both. Only about
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
w50% of children achieve reunification. In the USA, the Adoption and Safe Families Act (P.L. 105-89)
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wpassed in 1997 requires that a permanency plan be made for each child no later than 12 mo after entry to
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wfoster care and that a petition to terminate parental rights typically must be filedwhen a child has been in
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wfoster care for at least 15 of the previous 22 mo. (See Chapter 35, page 134, and e35-1.)

2. A 4 yr old girl is admitted to the hospital for her third evaluation for vaginal bleeding. The
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
mother noted bright red blood on the child's underwear. Previous examinations
w w w w w w w w w w
wrevealed a normal 4 yr old girl, Tanner stage 1, with normal external genitalia.
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wPelvic ultrasound resultswere normal, as was the serum estradiol level. The hemoglobin
w w w w w w w w w w w
wand platelet counts were normal, as were the bleeding time and coagulation studies.
w w w w w w w w w w w w
wFindings on pelvic examination conducted under anesthesia also were normal. The
w w w w w w w w w w
wnext step in the examination is to:
w w w w w w
■ Determine the blood type of the blood on the underwear
w w w w w w w w w
□Interrogate the father w w
□Isolate the parents and child
w w w w
□Determine von Willebrand factor levels w w w w
, □Measure fibronectin in the vagina

description Consideration of factitious disorder by proxy should be triggered when the reported symptoms are
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wrepeatedly noted by only one parent, appropriate testing fails to confirm a diagnosis, and seemingly
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wappropriate treatment is ineffective. At times, the child's symptoms, their course, or the response to
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wtreatment may be incompatible with any recognized disease.Preverbal children are usually involved. Bleeding
w w w w w w w w w w w w
wis a particularly common presentation. This may be caused by adding dyes to samples, adding blood (e.g.,
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wfrom the mother) to the child's sample, or giving the child an anticoagulant (e.g., warfarin). (See Chapter
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w

3. Munchausen syndrome by proxy is characterized by all of the following EXCEPT:
w w w w w w w w w w w
□Mother who appears devoted and wins over members of care team
w w w w w w w w w w
□Multiple w hospitalizations and investigations without diagnosis w w w w
□Symptoms w on history but not witnessed by medical team
w w w w w w w
■ Symptoms occurring in presence of different caregivers (e.g., while mother is out of town)
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
□Use of medications or toxins
w w w w
description Symptoms in young children are mostly associated with proximity of the offending caregiver to the
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wchild. The mother may present as a devoted or even model parent who forms close relationships with
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wmembers of the health care team. While appearing very interested in her child's condition, she may be relatively
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wdistant emotionally. (See Chapter 37, page 146.)

4. Which statement is false?w w w
■ Malnutrition is the second leading cause of acquired immune deficiency worldwide behind HIV infection
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
□Zinc is w w important in immune function and linear growth w w w w w w
□Kwashiorkor w and marasmus are rare in developed countries
w w w w w w
□The w Western diet is associated with increased noncommunicable disease
w w w w w w w
description The significant global burden of malnutrition and undernutrition is the leading worldwide cause of
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wacquired immunodeficiency and the major underlying factor for morbidity and mortality globally for children <5 yr
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wof age. Zinc is a micronutrient that supports multiple metabolic functions in the body, is essential for normal
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wimmune functioning, and is required to support linear growth; zinc deficiency is associated with impaired
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wimmune functioning and poor linear growth. In parallel to the risk for nutrient and energy deficiencies, issues
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w
wrelating to excesses pose important challenges because of theirjnegative health effects, such as obesity or
