Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback
A The identified items are included in a complete pediatric history.
B Vital signs, chief complaint, and list of previous problems do not constitute a
complete history.
C A problem-oriented history includes specific information about the chief
complaint.
D Pertinent developmental and family information are part of the complete history.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback
A Nursing actions are needed first to correct the problem. If the problem persists
after interventions, notification may then be necessary.
B A cap will prevent further heat loss from the head, and having the mother place
the infant skin-to-skin should increase the infant's temperature.
C A slightly decreased temperature can be treated in the mother's room. This
would be an excellent time for parent teaching on prevention of cold stress.
D Mild temperature instability is an expected deviation from normal during the
first days as the infant adapts to external life.
