8. The parent of a preschool-age child who is diagnosed with a sensory
processing disorder (SPD) asks the primary care pediatric nurse practitioner how to help the
child manage the symptoms. What will the nurse practitioner recommend?
A. Establishing a reward system for acceptable behaviors
B. Introducing the child to a variety of new experiences
C. Maintaining predictable routines as much as possible Correct
D. Providing frequent contact, such as hugs and cuddling
9. The primary care pediatric nurse practitioner is performing an examination on a 5-year-old child who
exhibits ritualistic behaviors, avoids contact with other children, and has limited speech. The parent
reports having had concerns more than 2 years ago about autism, but was told that it was too early to
diagnose. What will the nurse practitioner do first?
A. Administer an M-CHAT screen to screen the child for communication and
socialization delays.
B. Ask the parent to describe the child’s earlier behaviors from infancy
through preschool. Correct
C. Reassure the parent that if symptoms weren‟t present earlier, the likelihood of
autism is low.
D. Refer the child to a pediatric behavioral specialist to develop a plan
of treatment and management.
