- A. Amniotic Fluid Indexing (AFI)
- B. Fetal Fibronectin (FFN)
- C. Maternal Serum Alpha-Fetoprotein (MSAFP)
- D. Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)
Explanation
This blood test is part of the quadruple screen performed between 15–20 weeks of gestation. Abnormally low MSAFP levels can indicate chromosomal abnormalities such as Down’s Syndrome (Trisomy 21). It helps assess the need for further diagnostic testing.
D. Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS):
CVS is a diagnostic test performed between 10–13 weeks of pregnancy that directly analyzes fetal chromosomes from placental tissue. It provides a definitive diagnosis for genetic conditions like Down’s Syndrome early in pregnancy.
What is the best way for the nurse to support thermoregulation in the newborn immediately after birth
-
Dry the baby in an open crib then double wrap.
-
Place the newborn with his extremities extended.
-
Double wrap the baby and place a hat on the head.
-
Dry the baby and place its skin to skin with the mother.
Explanation
Correct Answer D: Dry the baby and place its skin to skin with the mother
D. Dry the baby and place its skin to skin with the mother
Skin-to-skin contact with the mother is the most effective way to support thermoregulation immediately after birth. It stabilizes the newborn’s temperature, heart rate, and breathing, and promotes bonding. Drying the baby first helps prevent heat loss through evaporation, while maternal body heat provides warmth.
Why the Other Options Are Incorrect:
A. Dry the baby in an open crib then double wrap.
Drying is appropriate, but placing the baby in an open crib provides less effective thermal support compared to skin-to-skin contact.
B. Place the newborn with his extremities extended.
Newborns naturally adopt a flexed position to conserve heat. Keeping the extremities extended increases surface area for heat loss and is not recommended.
C. Double wrap the baby and place a hat on the head.
While this helps prevent heat loss, skin-to-skin contact remains superior for thermoregulation, especially immediately after birth. Wrapping should follow after initial drying and bonding.
- A. Category 1 tracing
- B. Category 2 tracing
- C. Category 3 tracing
- D. Category 4 tracing
Explanation
You perform a vaginal examination and you detect a prolapsed cord. Your number one nursing priority would be to
-
Place the client in a knee chest position.
-
Place 8L of O₂ by mask on the patient.
-
With your hand, during the vaginal exam, keep the fetal head from compressing the cord.
-
Obtain a consent for an immediate C-section.
Explanation
Correct Answer C: With your hand, during the vaginal exam, keep the fetal head from compressing the cord.
C. With your hand, during the vaginal exam, keep the fetal head from compressing the cord.
The immediate priority with a prolapsed umbilical cord is to relieve pressure on the cord to maintain fetal oxygenation. This is done by using a gloved hand to manually lift the presenting part off the cord. This intervention helps preserve blood flow through the cord until emergency delivery can be performed.
Why the Other Options Are Incorrect:
A. Place the client in a knee chest position.
This position helps reduce pressure on the cord, but it is secondary to manual elevation of the presenting part, which is the most direct and immediate action to restore circulation.
B. Place 8L of O₂ by mask on the patient.
Oxygen may help increase maternal and fetal oxygenation, but it does not address the mechanical compression of the cord, which is the critical threat.
D. Obtain a consent for an immediate C-section.
An emergency C-section will likely be necessary, but the immediate nursing priority is to prevent fetal hypoxia by relieving pressure on the prolapsed cord. Consent and preparation follow urgent stabilization.
- A. "Amniotic fluid helps maintain our baby's temperature."
- B. "Amniotic fluid protects the baby from injury."
- C. "Amniotic fluid protects our baby from toxic substances."
- D. "Amniotic fluid allows our baby to move freely."
Explanation
- A. Turn the patient to her side
- B. Provide 2–3 liters of oxygen via mask
- C. Notify the health care provider
- D. Stop the oxytocin
Explanation
Repositioning the mother to her side relieves pressure on the inferior vena cava and aorta, improving uteroplacental blood flow. This helps increase oxygen delivery to the fetus and may reduce or eliminate late decelerations caused by decreased perfusion.
B. Provide 2–3 liters of oxygen via mask:
Administering oxygen enhances maternal oxygenation, thereby increasing the oxygen available to the fetus. This intervention helps correct fetal hypoxia and stabilizes the fetal heart rate pattern.
C. Notify the health care provider:
Late decelerations are a sign of potential fetal distress. The nurse must notify the provider immediately so further medical interventions, such as intrauterine resuscitation or expedited delivery, can be initiated to prevent fetal complications.
D. Stop the oxytocin:
Oxytocin increases uterine contractions, which can further compromise placental blood flow. Discontinuing oxytocin allows the uterus to relax, improving oxygen exchange between mother and fetus and preventing worsening of late decelerations.
- A. "A cerclage is a suture placed on the cervix."
- B. "A cerclage will prevent preterm labor."
- C. "A cerclage is done to help prevent the cervix from dilating too early."
- D. "A cerclage is done because I have had spontaneous abortions in the past because my cervix opened too early."
Explanation
A newborn is diagnosed with jaundice at 48 hours when the nurse is doing the discharge teaching. The newborn is treated with a biliblanket and frequent feedings.
What type of jaundice did the newborn probably have
-
Kernicterus
-
Physiologic Jaundice
-
Pathological Jaundice
-
Erythroblastosis Fetalis
Explanation
Correct Answer B: Physiologic Jaundice
Explanation:
B. Physiologic Jaundice
Physiologic jaundice typically appears after the first 24 hours of life, often peaking between 48 to 72 hours. It is a normal response to the newborn’s immature liver and increased red blood cell breakdown. Treatment includes phototherapy (such as a biliblanket) and frequent feedings to promote bilirubin excretion.
Why the Other Options Are Incorrect:
A. Kernicterus
Kernicterus is a rare, severe complication of untreated high bilirubin levels that can cause brain damage. It is not a type of jaundice but rather a result of extreme hyperbilirubinemia.
C. Pathological Jaundice
Pathological jaundice appears within the first 24 hours of life and is usually more severe, often requiring immediate and aggressive treatment. Jaundice appearing at 48 hours does not fit this timing.
D. Erythroblastosis Fetalis
This is a form of hemolytic disease of the newborn due to Rh incompatibility, leading to severe anemia and jaundice within the first 24 hours. Again, the timing and mild treatment used here (biliblanket) suggest physiologic, not immune-mediated jaundice.
- A. Taking prenatal vitamins with 400 mcg of folic acid
- B. Normalizing HgA1c levels, if diabetic, prior to conception
- C. Consuming a nutritional diet with 300 kcal more than normal
- D. Going to the dentist for a routine check-up and cleaning
Explanation
- A. Total parenteral nutrition or IV hydration
- B. A high-protein diet rich in kilocalories
- C. A 24-hour urine collection to check for protein
- D. Fasting blood sugar and one-hour postprandial
