During a well child evaluation of a 10-year-old girl, you
note the presence of breast buds and sparse growth of
long, straight pigmented hair along the labia. Since her
last visit one year ago, you find that she has grown 3
inches (7.7 cm), gained 6 lbs (2.7 kg), and is within the
50th percentile for height and weight. The mother asks if
these findings are normal for her age. You respond:


- This is normal as onset of puberty typically occurs
between ages 8 and 13 for girls.
- A referral to endocrinology is likely warranted.
- A bone age determination is recommended.
- A follow-up visit in 6 months is needed to note any
additional changes. - Answer-This is normal as onset of
puberty typically occurs between ages 8 and 13 for girls.

The presence of breast buds and sparse pubic hair
signifies Tanner Stage 2 development, which is normal for
a 10-year-old girl. During pre-adolescence (6-10 years of
age), children gain approximately 2-3 kg (5-7 lbs) and 5-8
cm (2-3 inches) per year. Growth spurt in girls typically
begins around 9-10 years of age, with maximum growth at
12 years of age.


You see a 17-year-old female with suspected bacterial
pharyngitis caused by group A beta-hemolytic

following except:


Palatial petechiae.
"Strawberry tongue."
Exudative pharyngitis.
Anterior cervical lymphadenopathy. - Answer-"Strawberry
tongue."

A 37-year-old man presents with a many-month history of
well-demarcated plaques with silvery scale on the tips of
his elbows. The scales often bleed when picked or peeled.
In considering a diagnosis of psoriasis vulgaris, the NP
considers:




This is largely a clinical diagnosis.
Testing for presence of rheumatoid factor and checking
ESR.
A biopsy of a representative lesion is needed.
Referral to dermatology. - Answer-This is largely a clinical
diagnosis.




A diagnosis of psoriasis vulgaris can be made with a
review of patient history, patient risk factors including
family history, and physical examination (A). Additional
testing can be considered to differentiate the condition
from another possible cause but is not usually required.

A 27-year-old male presents with a 2-day history of
purulent nasal discharge and a 4-day history of upper
respiratory tract infection symptoms but is without fever.
He asks for an antimicrobial to treat his "sinus infection."
He is otherwise healthy, has not received antimicrobial
therapy in the past 3 months, and has no drug allergies.
You consider:




Oral amoxicillin 1000 mg BID for 7 days.
Oral amoxicillin-clavulanate 875/125 mg BID for 5 days.
Oral azithromycin 500 mg QD for 5 days.
Antimicrobial therapy is not warranted. - Answer-
Antimicrobial therapy is not warranted.


Given that this is likely a viral infection, antimicrobial
therapy is not warranted (A, B, C). If the illness progresses
to suggest a bacterial infection (e.g., "double sickening,"
where URI-like symptoms initially improve then worsen, or
illness persisting beyond 7?10 days), then an antimicrobial
can be considered. Question: Plan/Intervention
