on. Although the nurse documents the findings, based on the information in the question, the OB needs

to be notified.

A. "Your type of pelvis has a narrow pubic arch."

transverse diameter, but the anteroposterior diameter is short, making the outlet inadequate.

Q4. A 55-year- dddd dd

A. "How often do you have sexual relations?"
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd



B. "Please share with me more about your concerns."

C. "You are still young and have nothing to be concerned about."
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd



E. "You should not have a decline in testosterone until you are in your 80s."
dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd dd




[Verified Solution]: B. "Please share with me more about your concerns." The nurse needs to establish

trust when discussing sexual relationships. The nurse would open the conversation with broad statemen
