CHAPTER 31: THE INFANT AND FAMILY PERRY: MATERNAL CHILD NURSING CARE, 6TH EDITION 1. Which statement accurately describes an event associated with an infant's physical development? a. Anterior fontanel closes by age 6 to 10 months. b. Binocularity is well established by age 8 months. c. Birth weight doubles by age 5 months and triples by age 1 year. d. Maternal iron stores persist during the first 12 months of life. - CORRECT ANSWER -ANS: C Growth is very rapid during the first year of life. The birth weight approximately doubles by age 5 to 6 months and triples by age 1 year. The anterior fontanel closes at age 12 to 18 months. Binocularity is not established until age 15 months. Maternal iron stores are usually depleted by age 6 months. 2. The nurse assessing a 6-month-old healthy infant who weighed 7 lbs at birth, shares with the parents that the infant should weigh approximately how many pounds? a. 10 lbs. b. 15 lbs. c. 20 lbs. d. 25 lbs. - CORRECT ANSWER -ANS: B Birth weight doubles at about age 5 to 6 months. At 6 months, an infant who weighed 7 lbs at birth would weigh approximately 15 lbs. Ten pounds is too little; the infant would have gone from the 50th percentile at birth to below the 5th percentile. Twenty pounds or more is too much; the infant would have tripled the birth weight at 6 months. 3. The nurse is doing a routine assessment on a 14-month-old infant and notes that the anterior fontanel is closed. This should be interpreted as: a. a normal finding. b. a questionable finding—the infant should be rechecked in 1 month. c. an abnormal finding—indicates the need for immediate referral to a practitioner. d. an abnormal finding—indicates the need for developmental assessment. - CORRECT ANSWER
