MULTIPLE CHOICE J




 Which factor significantly contributed to the shift from home births to hospital births in theearly
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




20th century?
J




a. Puerperal sepsis was identified as a risk factor in labor and delivery. J J J J J J J J J J J




b. Forceps were developed to facilitate difficult births. J J J J J J




c. The importance ofearly parental-infant contact was identified.
J J J J J J J




d. Technologic developments became available to physicians. J J J J J




ANS: D J




Technologic developments were available to physicians, not lay midwives. So in-hospital births
J J J J J J J J J J J J




increased in order to take advantage of these advancements. Puerperal sepsis has been aknown
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




problem for generations. In the late 19th century, Semmelweis discovered how it couldbe
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




prevented with improved hygienic practices. The development of forceps is an example of a
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




technology advance made in the early 20th century but is not the only reason birthplaces moved.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




Unlike home births, early hospital births hindered bonding between parents and their infants.

 A woman who delivered her baby 6 hours ago complains of headache and dizziness. The nurse
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




administers an analgesic but does not perform any assessments. The woman then has atonic-
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




clonic seizure, falls out of bed, and fractures her femur. How would the actions of the nurse be
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




interpreted in relation to standards of care? J J J J J J




a. Negligent: the nurse failed to assess the woman for possible complications J J J J J J J J J J




b. Negligent: because the nurse medicated the woman J J J J J J




c. Not negligent: the woman had signed a waiver concerning the use of side rails
J J J J J J J J J J J J J




d. Not negligent: the woman did not inform the nurse of her symptoms as soon as
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




they occurred J




ANS: A J

, There are four elements to malpractice, which is negligence in the performance of professional
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




duties: duty, breach of duty, damage, and proximate cause. The nurse was negligent because she
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




or he did not perform any assessments, which is the first step of the nursing process and is a
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




standard of care. By not assessing the patient, the nurse did not meetestablished standards of care,
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




and thus is guilty of professional negligence, or malpractice.

 Which patient situation fails to meet the first requirement of informed consent?
J J J J J J J J J J J




a. The patient does not understand the physician’s explanations.
J J J J J J J




b. The physician gives the patient only a partial list of possible side effects and
J J J J J J J J J J J J J




complications.
c. The patient is confused and disoriented. J J J J J




d. The patient signs a consent form because her husband tells her to.
J J J J J J J J J J J




ANS: C J




The first requirement of informed consent is that the patient must be competent to make decisions
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




about health care. Full disclosure of information is an important element of the consent, but first
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




the patient has to be competent to sign. Understanding is an important element of the consent, but
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




first the patient has to be competent to sign. Voluntary consent isan important element of the

consent, but first the patient has to be competent to sign. J J J J J J J J J J

 Which situation reflects a potential ethical dilemma for the nurse?
J J J J J J J J J




a. A nurse administers analgesics to a patient with cancer as often as the provider’s
J J J J J J J J J J J J J




order allows. J




b. A neonatal nurse provides nourishment and care to a newborn who has a defect
J J J J J J J J J J J J J




that is incompatible with life. J J J J




c. A labor nurse, whose religion opposes abortion, is asked to assist with an elective
J J J J J J J J J J J J J




abortion.
d. A postpartum nurse provides information about adoption to a new mother who
J J J J J J J J J J J




feels she cannot adequately care for her infant. J J J J J J J




ANS: C J




A dilemma exists in this situation because the nurse is being asked to assist with a procedurethat
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




she or he believes is morally wrong. The other situations do not contain elements of conflict for
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




the nurse.

Although the rates have dropped, unintentional injury (accidents) are still the leading cause ofdeath

 Family-centered maternity care developed in response to J J J J J J




a. demands by physicians for family involvement in childbirth. J J J J J J J




b. the Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921. J J J J




c. parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rather than in aJ J J J J J J J J J J J J




nursery.
d. changes in pharmacologic management of labor. J J J J J




ANS: C J




As research began to identify the benefits of early extended parent-infant contact, parents began
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




to insist that the infant remain with them. This gradually developed into the practice ofrooming-in
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




and finally to family-centered maternity care. Family-centered care was a requestby parents, not
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




physicians. The Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921 provided funds for J J J J J J J J




state-managed programs for mothers and children. The changes in pharmacologic J J J J J J J J J J




management of labor were not a factor in family-centered maternity care. J J J J J J J J J J

ANS: C J




In the traditional hospital setting, the mother may see the infant for only short feeding periods,and
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




the infant is cared for in a separate nursery. The labor/delivery/recovery/postpartum roomsetting
J J J J J J J J J J J J J

J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




contact. Home births allow an increase in parent-infant contact.

 As a result of changes in health care delivery and funding, a current trend seen in the pediatric
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




setting is J




a. increased hospitalization of children. J J J




b. decreased number of children living in poverty. J J J J J J




c. an increase in ambulatory care. J J J J




d. decreased use of managed care. J J J J




ANS: C J




One effect of managed care has been that pediatric health care delivery has shifted dramatically
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




from the acute care setting to the ambulatory setting in order to provide more cost-efficient care.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




The number of hospital beds being used has decreased as more care is given in outpatient settings
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




and in the home. The number of children living in poverty has increased over the past decade. One
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




of the biggest changes in health care has been the growthof managed care.

J J J J J J J




a. well-child examinations for infants and children living at the poverty level. J J J J J J J J J J

ANS: D J




WIC is a federal program that provides supplemental food supplies to low-income women who are
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J




pregnant or breastfeeding and to their children until age 5 years. Medicaid’s Early and Periodic

treatment of any medical problems diagnosed during such checkups. Children in the WIC program
