Question 8 • Introduction to Health Science - EL3601 B

Which is an example of irrelevant data if a health-care worker is determining if a newborn patient should be released from a hospital?

Answer
A
the baby’s weight and height
B
the baby’s eye and hair color
C
the baby’s ability to urinate
D
the baby’s respiration rate

Explanation

A newborn’s ability to urinate and respiration rate are important signs of health, and weight and height can help assess the baby’s condition. Eye and hair color generally do not affect whether a newborn is medically ready to leave the hospital, so they are irrelevant to that decision.
