Match each pediatric patient presenting for a routine well-child visit with the corresponding age-appropriate universal screening test recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
- A 12-month-old asymptomatic boy with no significant medical or family historyHemoglobin or hematocrit measurement
- An 18-month-old asymptomatic girl with typical development and growthStandardized autism spectrum disorder screening tool
- A 4-year-old asymptomatic boy preparing to start a preschool programObjective visual acuity testing with an optotype chart
- A 10-year-old asymptomatic girl with an active lifestyleFasting or non-fasting lipid profile
- A 12-year-old asymptomatic boy attending the clinic for an annual physical examinationStandardized adolescent depression screening questionnaire
Cevap
The 12-month-old matches with hemoglobin measurement. The 18-month-old matches with the autism screening tool. The 4-year-old matches with objective visual acuity testing. The 10-year-old matches with a lipid profile. The 12-year-old matches with the standardized depression screening questionnaire.
The correct matches align with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) periodicity schedule for universal screening. At 12 months, infants are universally screened for anemia. At 18 months, toddlers receive their first formal autism spectrum disorder screening. At 4 years, children are cognitively mature enough for objective visual acuity testing using a chart. Between ages 9 and 11 (e.g., 10 years old), children undergo universal dyslipidemia screening. At 12 years, universal depression screening begins for adolescents.
