A nurse is reviewing maternal mortality data for a community health needs assessment. Which factor has been identified as the leading cause of pregnancy-related deaths in the United States? A. Hemorrhage B. Cardiovascular conditions C. Infection D. Hypertensive disorders Correct Answer: B Rationale: Cardiovascular conditions are the leading cause of pregnancy-related deaths in the United States, followed by other medical conditions, infection, hemorrhage, and hypertensive disorders. The nurse must recognize that cardiovascular disease complicates approximately 1–4% of pregnancies and is a major contributor to maternal mortality. This knowledge is essential for early identification and referral of at-risk patients. DIF: Moderate KEY: Nursing Process; Health Promotion and Maintenance MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance; Reduction of Risk Potential NOT: Remembering ________________________________________ 2. A nurse is caring for a patient who gave birth in the 1980s and is now supporting her daughter during labor. The patient's mother notes that "things are so different now." Which current trend would the nurse identify as most significantly different from the 1980s? A. Use of fetal monitoring during labor B. Postpartum hospital stay of 10 days C. Expectant partners present in the operating room for cesarean birth D. Hospital support for breastfeeding Correct Answer: D Rationale: Hospital support for breastfeeding, including lactation consultants and the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative, was enacted in the early 1990s and represents a major shift from the 1980s. Fetal monitoring began in the late 1970s, so the mother would likely have experienced it. Postpartum stays have decreased, not increased. Partner presence in the operating room has become more common but is not as universally transformative as institutional breastfeeding support. DIF: Moderate KEY: Nursing Process; Health Promotion MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance; Growth and Development NOT: Applying ________________________________________ 3. A nurse is analyzing infant mortality trends since 1995. Which condition has shown the most significant decrease in infant death rates? A. Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) B. Congenital anomalies C. Disorders related to short gestation and low birth weight D. Accidents Correct Answer: B Rationale: Since 1995, infant death rates have significantly decreased for congenital anomalies, largely due to advances in prenatal diagnosis, fetal surgery, and early intervention. While SIDS rates have also declined due to back-to-sleep campaigns, congenital anomalies have shown the most substantial and sustained reduction. Preterm birth and low birth weight remain leading causes of infant mortality without comparable declines. DIF: Moderate KEY: Nursing Process; Health Promotion MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance; Reduction of Risk Potential NOT: Remembering ________________________________________ 4. A nurse is providing care to a family from a culture that practices traditional postpartum rituals. Which action by the nurse demonstrates cultural competence? A. Discouraging traditional practices that may be harmful B. Asking the family to explain their traditions and incorporating them into care C. Informing the family that hospital policy requires standard care D. Documenting traditional practices as non-compliant behavior Correct Answer: B Rationale: Cultural competence requires the nurse to assess and respect the family's cultural practices while integrating safe, evidence-based care. Asking the family to explain their traditions demonstrates cultural humility and allows for collaborative care planning. Discouraging practices without assessment, ignoring family preferences, or labeling practices as non-compliant are culturally insensitive approaches. DIF: Moderate KEY: Nursing Process; Cultural Competence MSC: Psychosocial Integrity; Cultural Diversity NOT: Applying ________________________________________ 5. A nurse is reviewing the Healthy People 2030 objectives for maternal and infant health. Which goal is a priority for improving maternal-newborn outcomes? A. Increasing the rate of cesarean births B. Reducing the rate of preterm births C. Increasing the length of postpartum hospital stays D. Reducing the number of home births Correct Answer: B Rationale: Reducing preterm births is a key Healthy People 2030 objective because preterm birth is a leading cause of infant mortality and long-term morbidity. Cesarean birth rates are not targeted for increase; postpartum stays are not recommended for lengthening without medical indication; and home births are not targeted for reduction when appropriately planned. DIF: Easy KEY: Nursing Process; Health Promotion MSC: Health Promotion and Maintenance; Health Screening NOT: Remembering ________________________________________ 6. A nurse is discussing maternal mortality with a group of nursing students. Which definition correctly describes a late maternal death? A. Death during pregnancy or within 42 days of pregnancy termination B. Death from any cause during pregnancy C. Death from a direct or indirect obstetric cause more than 42 days but less than 1 year after pregnancy termination D. Death from accidental causes during pregnancy Correct Answer: C Rationale: A late maternal death is defined as the death of a woman from a direct or indirect obstetric cause occurring more than 42 days but less than 1 year after termination of pregnancy. Early maternal death occurs during pregnancy or within 42 days of termination. Direct obstetric death results from complications of pregnancy, labor, or postpartum. Indirect obstetric death results from pre-existing disease aggravated by pregnancy.
