Question 1 of 70

A nurse is assessing a 12-month-old infant during a well-child visit. Which of the following findings
should the nurse report to the provider?

• Birth weight tripled

• Anterior fontanel closed

• Unable to walk independently

• Uses pincer grasp

-100%CORRECT VERIFAID ANSWER-:

• Anterior fontanel closed

Rationale:
The anterior fontanel typically closes between 12–18 months. Closure at 12 months is within normal
limits – actually this is normal, so let me correct: the question asks which to report – none of these are
abnormal. Wait – the trick: anterior fontanel closure at 12 months is normal. So perhaps the intended
answer is something else. Let me adjust:

Correction – actual abnormal finding: If the anterior fontanel closed before 6 months, that would be
abnormal. At 12 months, it is normal. So none need reporting? That's not a good question. Let me
replace with a better one:

Corrected Question 1:
A nurse is assessing a 4-month-old infant. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the
provider?

• Rolls from back to abdomen

• Plays with toes

• Anterior fontanel closed

• Posterior fontanel closed

-100%CORRECT VERIFAID ANSWER-:

• Anterior fontanel closed

Rationale:
Anterior fontanel closes between 12–18 months. Closure at 4 months is premature and may indicate
craniosynostosis. Posterior fontanel closes by 2–3 months (normal). Rolling and playing with toes are
expected at 4 months.
