Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The newborn's skull is not yet fused, which permits the skull to change shape as it passes through the birth canal and allows growth of the infant's head. The membranous areas between an infant's cranial bones (soft spots) are called fontanels.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The first statement is the most appropriate diagnostic statement because it mentions the problem, etiology, and the symptoms in the correct sequence. The second statement does not mention the signs and symptoms experienced by the client. The third statement is not specific and does not mention the problem, etiology, and the symptoms in the correct sequence. The diagnostic statement does not include measures for intervention, and hence the fourth statement is wrong.
