CORRECT RATED A+
Question: Which effect is seen when the fetus is exposed to a teratogen during the
embryonic period ($3\ to }8\{ }$ of gestation)?
A. Delay in growth
B. Gross malformations
C. Death of conceptus
D. Disruption of brain development
Answer: ✔✔ Gross malformations
Clinical Rationale: The embryonic period ($3\text{ to }8\text{ weeks}$) is the
phase of organogenesis, making tissues and organs highly susceptible to
teratogens, which results in major structural/gross malformations. Exposure in the
pre-implantation period ($1\text{--}2\text{ weeks}$) typically follows an "all-or-
none" rule resulting in death of the conceptus, whereas fetal period exposure
($9\text{--}40\text{ weeks}$) leads to functional defects or growth delay.
Question: A client in her tenth week of pregnancy exhibits presumptive signs of
pregnancy. Which clinical findings may the nurse determine upon assessment?
(Select all that apply.)
[X] Amenorrhea
[X] Breast changes
[X] Urinary frequency
[ ] Abdominal enlargement
[ ] Positive urine pregnancy test
Answer: ✔✔ Amenorrhea, Breast changes, Urinary frequency
Categorization of Pregnancy Signs
Presumptive (Subjective): Changes felt by the woman herself (e.g.,
amenorrhea, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, breast tenderness/changes, urinary
frequency, quickening).
Probable (Objective): Anatomical/physiological changes observed by an
examiner or lab test (e.g., positive pregnancy test, Goodell's sign,
Chadwick's sign, Hegar's sign, abdominal enlargement, Braxton Hicks
contractions, ballottement).
Positive (Diagnostic): Definitive proof attributed solely to the fetus (e.g.,
fetal heart tones heard via Doppler, visualization of fetus via ultrasound,
examiner palpating active fetal movement).
, Hepatic metabolism of drug is decreased -ANSWER ✔✔An RN teaches a nursing
student about physiologic changes that occur during pregnancy & their impact on
drug disposition & dosing. Which statement of the nursing student indicates the
need for further education?
Drug elimination is increased
Hepatic metabolism of a drug is decreased
Intestinal Transit time of drug is increased
Absorption of drug through GI tract is increased
Emesis
Nausea
Backache
Dyspepsia -ANSWER ✔✔Which topics should the nurse include in the teaching
session for a pregnant client regarding maternal discomforts caused by fetal growth
& hormonal changes? Select all that apply.
Emesis
Nausea
Diarrhea
Backache
Dyspepsia
Preterm labor
Cesarean delivery
Postpartum obesity -ANSWER ✔✔What complications are associated with
excessive weight gain during pregnancy in adolescents? Select all that apply.
Fetal anemia
Preterm labor
Cesarean deliver
Maternal mortality
Postpartum obesity
Quickening -ANSWER ✔✔On a routine prenatal visit, what is the sign or
symptom that a healthy primigravida at 20 weeks' gestation will most likely report
for the first time?
Quickening
