NUR 230 Exam 3 practice questions with
// // // // // //

answers
// //

The nurse is caring for a 4-year-old child with HIV. The nurse
// // // // // // // // // // //

would expect which statement with the psychosocial
// // // // // // //

expectations of this age?
// // // //

- "I know it hurts to die."
// // // // // //

* A preschool-age child begins to conceptualize death process as
// // // // // // // // //

involving physical harm.
// // //

Monosyllabic babbling //

- occurs between 3 - 6 months of age
// // // // // // // //

Regression
- often happens due to stress of hospitalization
// // // // // // //

- parents may be overly concerned about this and need to be
// // // // // // // // // // //

told that their child may continue the behavior at home
// // // // // // // // // //

,- best approach is to ignore it while praising existing patterns of
// // // // // // // // // // //

appropriate behavior
// //

A 15-year-old is injured with a fractured jaw. The fractured jaw
// // // // // // // // // //

has been surgically wired, and the PHCP prescribed a full liquid
// // // // // // // // // // //

diet. Which nursing action would best promote compliance and
// // // // // // // // //

provide an adequate nutrient value with the full liquid diet for
// // // // // // // // // // //

this teenager?
// //

- Ask teen for food preferences, and liquefy these foods using a
// // // // // // // // // // //

blender.
//

* A 15-year-old may have difficulty maintaining compliance w/ a
// // // // // // // // //

liquid only diet. To encourage compliance, it is important to
// // // // // // // // // //

have the teen participate in decision making about the diet.
// // // // // // // // // //

Although liquefied foods may be unappealing under many
// // // // // // // //

circumstances, the nutrient value is unchanged. The teen will
// // // // // // // // //

have an opportunity to "eat" the same foods that they were
// // // // // // // // // // //

eating before the jaw fracture.
// // // // //

,The nurse is admitting a 10-month-old infant who is being
// // // // // // // // //

hospitalized for a respiratory infection. The nurse develops a
// // // // // // // // //

plan of care for the infant and includes which most appropriate
// // // // // // // // // // //

intervention?
//

- Providing a consistent routine w/ touching, rocking, & cuddling
// // // // // // // // //

throughout hospitalization
// //

* A 10-month-old is in Trust vs Mistrust stage of psychosocial
// // // // // // // // // //

development according to Erikson. The infant is developing a
// // // // // // // // //

sense of self, and the nurse would appropriately provide a
// // // // // // // // // //

consistent routine for the child. Hospitalization may have an
// // // // // // // // //

adverse effect, and the nurse would touch, rock, and cuddle the
// // // // // // // // // // //

infant to promote a sense of trust and provide sensory
// // // // // // // // // //

stimulation.
//

A 2-year-old child has been admitted to the hospital for
// // // // // // // // //

management of pneumonia. The child is placed in an oxygen
// // // // // // // // // //

tent. Taking into consideration the child's age and developmental
// // // // // // // // //

level and the treatment being administered, which statement is
// // // // // // // // //

appropriate for the nurse to make to the parents?
// // // // // // // // //

- "You can sit next to your child and hold hands through the
// // // // // // // // // // // //

tent, but your child needs to remain inside of it."
// // // // // // // // // //

, * Oxygen therapy is an important part of pneumonia
// // // // // // // //

management and is effective only if it is used appropriately. It is
// // // // // // // // // // // //

important to maintain the toddler in the oxygen environment at
// // // // // // // // // //

all times. The toddler is at risk for increased anxiety. Attachment
// // // // // // // // // // //

is critical to optimal growth and development of children,
// // // // // // // // //

particularly in the infant and toddler years. Therefore, sitting
// // // // // // // // //

with the child and holding the child's hand is important. Wool
// // // // // // // // // // //

blankets, stuffed toys, and many toy cars can produce sparks,
// // // // // // // // // //

which could lead to an oxygen tent's catching fire. It is
// // // // // // // // // // //

important to educate parents and family members not to bring
// // // // // // // // // //

these types of objects to the hospital.
// // // // // // //

The parent of a 5-year-old child tells the nurse that the child
// // // // // // // // // // //

scolds the floor/table if the child hurts themself on the object.
// // // // // // // // // // //

The nurse educates the parent according to Piaget's theory of
// // // // // // // // // //

cognitive development and its terminology and definitions.
// // // // // // //

Which statement by the parent indicates teaching has been
// // // // // // // // //

effective?
//

- "This is an example of animism."
// // // // // //

* all inanimate objects are given living meaning.
// // // // // // //
