Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Breast cancer screening is the subject of controversy. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends annual screening with mammography and clinical breast examinations every year starting at age 40.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The child may be ready for solid foods so the nurse should assess for readiness. Signs of readiness to eat solids include being able to hold the head up, being able to sit in a high chair, and being able to move the tongue around without pushing food out of the mouth. Other signs include appropriate weight gain, teething, and remaining hungry after breastfeeding 8-10 times a day or bottle feeding 40 oz of formula. Asking about emptying the breasts is irrelevant if the baby is gaining weight. Putting objects in the mouth and using the pincer grasp are indicative of being ready for finger foods.
