Question: Pediatrics Course

I have been in LPN school for 10 months now and am starting pediatrics. The course is very broad & unlike the other courses, I am finding myself getting lost in all the information. I am very organized and always tackle a course with a plan from beginning to end. I've printed all the materials/reading assignments, etc, but... Also, from OKLAHOMA so the OBN has required that information be tested by age group (infant, toddler, etc) rather than by body system & our books are setup by system. The module guides for each unit are generalized (as far as the reading assignment & the questions leave you kinda guessing where to look & what you were "supposed" to read for the test. I am the kind of guy that freaks out big time before every test and I just wondered if maybe there was a systematic appoach to the Pediatric course that I'm missing. Please help. Any & all responses are appreciated in advance. Thank You.

    hey,

    i just got done with my peds semester. our tests were somewhat similar to what you are explaining with being tested on age group. definitely know your psychosocial and how a adolescent, toddler, or infant would react in a certain situation or any nursing considerations for that age group. our final was 100 questions and almost all were related to psychosocial. there was a little bit of patho and diseases specific to peds that we needed to focus on, especially with cardiac. just know your different age groups and milestones, nursing care, and psychosocial. hope this helps.
