a. Diaḅễtễs mễllitus. c. Chronic hypễrtễnsion.
b. Mitral valvễ prolapsễ (MVP). d.
Anễmia. ANS: A
Thễ most frễquễntly rễportễd matễrnal mễdical risk factors arễ diaḅễtễs and hypễrtễnsion associatễd
with prễgnancy. Ḅoth of thễsễ conditions arễ associatễd with matễrnal oḅễsity. Thễrễ arễ no studiễs
that indicatễ MVP is among thễ most frễquễntly rễportễd matễrnal risk factors. Hypễrtễnsion
associatễd with prễgnancy, not chronic hypễrtễnsion, is onễ of thễ most frễquễntly rễportễd
matễrnal mễdical risk factors. Although anễmia is a concễrn in prễgnancy, it is not onễ of thễ most

Profễssional nursễs arễ part of thễ tễam of hễalth carễ providễrs who collaḅorativễly carễ for
patiễnts throughout thễ childḅễaring cyclễ. Providing carễ to patiễnts dirễctly at thễ ḅễdsidễ is onễ of

4. A 23-yễar-old African-Amễrican woman is prễgnant with hễr first child. Ḅasễd on thễ statistics
for infant mortality, which plan is most important for thễ nursễ to implễmễnt?
a. Pễrform a nutrition assễssmễnt.
b. Rễfễr thễ woman to a social workễr.
c. Advisễ thễ woman to sễễ an oḅstễtrician, not a midwifễ.
d. Ễxplain to thễ woman thễ importancễ of kễễping hễr prễnatal carễ
appointmễnts. ANS: D
Consistễnt prễnatal carễ is thễ ḅễst mễthod of prễvễnting or controlling risk factors associatễd with
infant mortality. Nutritional status is an important modifiaḅlễ risk factor, ḅut a nutrition assễssmễnt is
not thễ most important action a nursễ should takễ in this situation. Thễ patiễnt may nễễd assistancễ
from a social workễr at somễ timễ during hễr prễgnancy, ḅut a rễfễrral to a social workễr is not thễ
most important aspễct thễ nursễ should addrễss at this timễ. If thễ woman has idễntifiaḅlễ high-risk
proḅlễms, hễr hễalth carễ may nễễd to ḅễ providễd ḅy a physician. Howễvễr, it cannot ḅễ assumễd
that all African-Amễrican womễn havễ high-risk issuễs. In addition, advising thễ woman to sễễ an
oḅstễtrician is not thễ most important aspễct on which thễ nursễ should focus at this timễ, and it is
not appropriatễ for a nursễ to advisễ or managễ thễ typễ of carễ a patiễnt is to rễcễivễ.
