, Unit 1 – Pediatric Primary Care
Based on Burns’ Pediatric Primary Care, 8th Edition (2025)


A 6-month-old infant presents for a well-child visit. The
family asks about the role of pediatric primary care.
Which statement best describes this role?
A. Focuses primarily on diagnosing acute illnesses.
B. Coordinates continuous, comprehensive care across
developmental stages. ✅
C. Provides only preventive services such as
immunizations.
D. Refers all chronic conditions to subspecialists.
Rationale:
 B is correct because pediatric primary care delivers
longitudinal, holistic care encompassing health promotion,
disease prevention, and management across infancy to
adolescence.
 A is incorrect: acute illness management is only one
component.
 C is too narrow: it includes but is not limited to prevention.
 D is incorrect: PCPs manage many chronic conditions and
coordinate subspecialty care rather than referring all.
During counseling, an advanced practice nurse
distinguishes primary care from primary prevention.
