multiple choice
1. which factor significantly contributed to the shift from home
births to hospital births in the early 20th century?
a. puerperal sepsis was identified as a risk factor in labor and delivery.
b. forceps were developed to facilitate difficult births.
c. the importance of early parental-infant contact was identified.
d. technologic developments became available to physicians.
ans>>> d
technologic developments were available to physicians, not lay
midwives. so in-hospital births increased in order to take advantage
of these advancements. puerperal sepsis has been a known problem
for generations. in the late 19th century, semmelweis discovered how
it could be prevented with improved hygienic practices. the
development of forceps is an example of a technology advance made
in the early 20th century but is not the only reason birthplaces
moved. unlike home births, early hospital births hindered bonding
between parents and their infants.

d. changes in pharmacologic management of labor.
ans>>> c
as research began to identify the benefits of early extended
parent-infant contact, parents began to insist that the infant
, remain with them. this gradually developed into the practice of
rooming-in and finally to family-centered maternity care. family-
centered care was a request by parents, not physicians. the
sheppard-towner act of 1921 provided funds for state-managed
programs for mothers and children. the changes in
pharmacologic management of labor were not a factor in family-
centered maternity care.

3. which setting for childbirth allows the least amount of parent-infant
contact?
a. labor/delivery/recovery/postpartum room
b. birth center
c. traditional hospital birth
d. home birth
.
, ans>>> c
in the traditional hospital setting, the mother may see the infant for
only short feeding periods, and the infant is cared for in a separate
nursery. the labor/delivery/recovery/postpartum room setting allows
increased parent-infant contact. birth centers are set up to allow an
increase in parent-infant contact. home births allow an increase in
parent-infant contact.

4. as a result of changes in health care delivery and funding, a
current trend seen in the pediatric setting is
a. increased hospitalization of children.
b. decreased number of children living in poverty.
c. an increase in ambulatory care.
d. decreased use of managed care.
ans>>> c
one effect of managed care has been that pediatric health care
delivery has shifted dramatically from the acute care setting to
the ambulatory setting in order to provide more cost-efficient
care. the number of hospital beds being used has decreased as
more care is given in outpatient settings and in the home. the
number of children living in poverty has increased over the past
decade. one of the biggest changes in health care has been the
growth of managed care.
