|which |groups |of |individuals |are |at |risk |for |which |health |problems. |Life-span |statistics |is |a
|part |of |the |mortality |data. |Treatment |modalities |and |cost |are |not |included |in |morbidity |and
|mortality |data.

|not |associated |with |obesity, |and |celiac |disease |is |the |inability |to |metabolize |gluten |in |foods
|and |is |not |associated |with |obesity.

|American |boys |ranging |in |ages |15 |to |19 |years?
a. Suicide
b. Cancer
c. Firearm |homicide
d. Occupational |injuries

|this |population. |Cancer, |although |a |major |health |problem, |is |the |fourth-leading |cause |of
|death |in |this |age |group. |Occupational |injuries |do |not |contribute |to |a |significant |death |rate |for
|this |age |group.

, 7. Which |factor |most |impacts |the |type |of |injury |a |child |is |susceptible |to, |according |to |the
|childs |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 |childs |developmental |stage |determines |the |type |of |injury |that |is |likely |to |occur. |The
|childs |physical |health |may |facilitate |the |childs |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 |childs |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 |childs |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

|ANS: |D
The |new |morbidity |reflects |the |behavioral, |social, |and |educational |problems |that |interfere
|with |the |childs |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 |childs |life
d. Excluding |families |from |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. |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.
