There will come a time when you either have to deliver a baby or work on a pediatric patient. It is important to properly define what age group your patient is in. How old is a toddler?
  1. 6 months - 1 year
  2. 1 year - 2 years
  3. 1 year - 3 years
  4. 1 year - 5 years
Explanation
Answer: C - A toddler is from the ages of 1 - 3 years. Toddlers do not like being touched, having clothing removed, or being separated from their parents or wearing oxygen masks. They fear pain and needles. Toddlers should be given conformation that they have not been bad; this age bracket may believe their illness is a punishment for their misbehavior. Additionally, the trunk to head approach should be taken to avoid agitation.
