QUESTION 1
During a well-child visit, a 16-year-old male is receiving anticipatory guidance from the
family nurse practitioner (FNP) regarding safe driving practices. The patient has a new
intermediate driver's license, which in his state, permits unsupervised driving. When
counseling the patient and his parents about the highest-risk conditions for motor
vehicle crashes among adolescent drivers, the FNP should emphasize that crash risk is
significantly increased under which of the following circumstances?
Driving on a rural road with a mature adult passenger Daytime driving with a parent in
the vehicle Weekend nighttime driving with multiple teen passengers Driving during the
week with no passengers
Answer: Weekend nighttime driving with multiple teen passengers.
QUESTION 2
A 9-year-old child presents to the clinic for a well-child checkup. During auscultation,
the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) notes an irregular heart rhythm that speeds up with
inspiration and slows down with expiration. The child is asymptomatic, and the rest of
the physical examination is unremarkable. An ECG confirms a respiratory sinus
arrhythmia. What is the most appropriate next step in managing this patient?
Reassure the parents that this is a normal, benign finding and requires no further
intervention.
Refer immediately to a pediatric cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
Initiate the child on a low-dose beta-blocker to regulate the heart rhythm.
Order a 24-hour Holter monitor to assess the frequency and severity of the arrhythmia
Answer: Reassure the parents that this is a normal, benign finding and requires no further intervention.
