b. identifies a need for physicaltherapy. J J J J J




c. is a developmentalscreening tool.

d. provides a framework for healthteaching. J J J J J




ANS: C J




The Denver II is the most commonly used measure of developmental status used by health
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




care professionals; it is a screening tool. Screening tools do not provide a diagnosis.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




Diagnosis requires athorough neurodevelopment history and physical examination.
J J J J J J J J J




Developmental delay, which is suggested by screening, is a symptom, not a diagnosis.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J




The need for any therapy would be identified with a comprehensive evaluation, not a
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




screening tool. Some providers use the Denver II as a framework for teaching about
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




expected development, but this is not the primary purpose of thetool.
