Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Sample Question

A first time mother asks how she should place her 3 month old during playtime. The nurse practitioner replies:

c.	Infants should not be placed consistently in the same position while awake because this slows development and strengthening of the muscles which are least used in that position. Infants should always be positioned supine or side-lying for sleep.

a.	always place him supine because this encourages kicking and leg muscle development.
b.	always place him prone because this helps development of chest and arm muscles.
c.	place him in a variety of positions to develop anterior and posterior muscles.
d.	it does not matter how the infant is placed because he will find the most comfortable position.
