Maternity and Pediatric Nursing 5th Edition
Ricci Kyle Carman Test Bank
Chapter 1

1. When integrating the principles of family-centered care into the
birthing process, the nurse would base care upon which belief?
A. Birth is viewed as a medical event.
B. Families are unable to make informed choices due to stress.
C. Birth results in changes in relationships.
D. Families require little information to make appropriate decisions for care.

Answer: C

Rationale: Family-centered care is based on the followinagb i rpb .rc ionmc/ t ieps tles: Birth affects
the entire family, and relationships will change; birth is viewed as a normal, healthy
event in the life of the family; and families are capable of making decisions about
their own care if given adequate information and professional support.

2. The nurse is working with a group of community health members to develop
a plan to address the special health needs of women. The group would design
educational programs to address which priority condition?
A. Smoking
B. Heart disease
C. Diabetes
D. Cancer

Answer: B

Rationale: The group needs to address cardiovascular d ise as e, the number one cause
of death in women regardless of racial or ethnic group. Smoking is related to heart
disease and the development of cancer. However, heart disease and cancer
can occur in any woman regardless of her smoking hist oarbyi r b.. cCo ma/nt ecs ter is the second
leading cause of death, with women having a one in three lifetime risk of
developing cancer. Diabetes is another important health condition that can affect
women. However, it is not the major health problem that heart disease is.

consent for health care. Serving as a witness to the signature process, asking
whether the client understands what she is signing, a nda gb i reb t. ctoi mn / gt e svt erbal consent over
the phone for emergency procedures are all key to informed consent and are not
violations.

5. A 9-month-old with glaucoma requires surgery. The i na bfi ar b n. c to 'ms/t epsat
rents are divorced. To obtain informed consent, which action would be
most appropriate?
A. Contacting the father for informed consent
B. Obtaining informed consent from the mother
C. Seeking a court ruling on the course of care
D. Determining sole or joint custody by the parents

Answer: D

Rationale: The most appropriate action would be to determine legal custody by
court decree. If the parents have joint custody, then either parent may give
consent, but it is always best to have consent given by ba boi rtbh. c opma/ t erset nts. The parent
with only physical custody may give consent for emergency care. The last resort is
getting a court ruling; usually this is not necessary unless the parents disagree
about the care of the child.

6. Which statement made by a nursing student would b ea bsi r tb . cionmd/ tiecsat te
that her education on family-centered care was fully understood?
A. "Childbirth affects the entire family, and relationships will change."
B. "Families are usually not capable of making health c aarbei r bd. ceo mc /itse isot ns for themselves,
especially in stressful situations."
C. "Mothers are the only family member affected by childbirth."
D. "Since childbirth is a medical procedure, it may affect

everyone." Answer: A

Rationale: Childbirth affects the entire family, and relati oa bni r bs . hc oi mp / st e s wt ill change.
Childbirth is viewed as a normal life event, not a medical procedure. Families are
very capable of making health care decisions about their own care with proper
information and support.
