During a pediatric exam, which position is often used to facilitate the examination of the head, neck, and chest in young infants?
Knee-chest
Prone
Supine
Seated
The supine position is often used for examining infants as it allows easy access to the head, neck, and anterior chest region. This position is where the child lies on their back, which is suitable for most pediatric exams, especially for young infants. The prone position would be used for the examination of the infant's back and hips, while the seated position is usually for older children capable of supporting themselves in a seated posture. The knee-chest position is generally used for rectal examinations and is not the primary choice for the examination of the head, neck, and chest.
