Answer to Question 1

A, C, D, E
Correct: A, C, D, E. These are all appropriate reasons for auditory screening of the newborn. Infants who do not pass should be rescreened. If they still do not pass the test, they should have a full audiologic and medical evaluation by 3 months of age. If necessary, the infant should be enrolled in early intervention by 6 months of age.
Incorrect: B. New parents are often anxious regarding this test and the impending results; however, it is not the reason for the screening to be performed. Auditory screening is usually done before hospital discharge. It is important for the nurse to ensure that the infant receives the appropriate testing and that the test is fully explained to the parents. For infants that are referred for further testing and follow-up, it is important for the nurse to provide further ex-planation and emotional support.

Answer to Question 2

A
