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.

2. family-centered maternity care developed in response to
a. demands by physicians for family involvement in childbirth.
b. the sheppard-towner act of 1921.
c. parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rather than in a
nursery.
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.
