  • A 24-month-old boy with a vocabulary of 50 words and normal interactive playAdministration of a standardized autism-specific questionnaire
  • A 3-year-old girl with no significant medical history who is fully toilet trainedInitiation of universal annual blood pressure measurement
  • An 11-year-old boy who plays competitive sports and has a normal BMIMeasurement of a non-fasting lipid profile
  • A 16-year-old girl who denies sexual activity and has no history of substance useUniversal screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection

Cevap

The correct matches pair the 24-month-old with the autism-specific questionnaire, the 3-year-old with annual blood pressure measurement, the 11-year-old with a lipid profile, and the 16-year-old with HIV screening.
Each age group corresponds to a specific universal screening requirement according to AAP preventive care guidelines. At 24 months, toddlers receive their second universal screening for autism. At 3 years of age, routine annual blood pressure measurement begins. Between 9 and 11 years (e.g., age 11), children undergo universal lipid screening. Finally, adolescents between the ages of 15 and 18 (e.g., age 16) should universally undergo screening for HIV.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the universal screening requirement for the 24-month-old patient.
Administration of a standardized autism-specific questionnaire.
The AAP recommends formal autism screening with a standardized tool (such as the M-CHAT) for all children at 18 and 24 months of age, regardless of perceived developmental progress.
2
Determine the universal screening requirement for the 3-year-old patient.
Initiation of universal annual blood pressure measurement.
Routine, universal blood pressure measurement begins at 3 years of age. Children younger than 3 only require blood pressure monitoring if they have specific risk factors (e.g., congenital heart disease, renal disease, history of prematurity).
3
Determine the universal screening requirement for the 11-year-old patient.
Measurement of a non-fasting lipid profile.
Universal screening for dyslipidemia should be performed once between the ages of 9 and 11 years, even in active children with a normal BMI and no family history.
4
Determine the universal screening requirement for the 16-year-old patient.
Universal screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
The AAP recommends universal HIV screening at least once for all adolescents between the ages of 15 and 18 years, regardless of reported sexual activity or drug use.
