Chapter 1 n
Question 1 n
Type: MCSA
n n
The nurse is speaking to students about changes in maternal–newborn care. One change is that self-care has gained
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
wide acceptance with patients, the healthcare community, and third-party payers due to research findings that suggest
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
that it:
n n
1. Shortens newborn length of stay. n n n n
2. Decreases use of home health agencies. n n n n n
3. Reduces healthcare costs. n n
4. Decreases the number of emergency department visits. n n n n n n
CORRECT ANSWER: 3 n n
Rationale 1: Length of stay is often determined by third-party payer (insurance company) policies as well as physiologic
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
stability of the mother and newborn. Home healthcare agencies often are involved in patient care to decrease hospital
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
stay time.

Rationale 4:Acute emergencies are addressed by emergency departments, and are not delayed by those practicing self-
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
care.

n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
unit.

Question 3 n
The nurse is telling a new patient how technology used in maternal–newborn care has changed the way the nurse cares for
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
her patients. An example of this is:
n n n n n n n
1. Elective inductions, requested cesareans, epidural anesthesia, and fetal monitoring.
n n n n n n n n
2. Delivering at home with a nurse-midwife and doula.
n n n n n n n

4. Breastfeeding of the new baby on the delivery table. n n n n n n n n
CORRECT ANSWER: 1 n n
Rationale 1: Elective inductions, requested cesareans, epidural anesthesia, and fetal monitoring are all recent
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
ntechnologies that have affected the care in labor and delivery areas.
n n n n n n n n n n
Rationale 2:Anurse-midwife and a doula are not examples of technological care.
n n n n n n n n n n n n
Rationale 3: Fathers’ being present during labor and coaching their partners represents nontechnological care
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n during
childbirth.
n
