Feedback
1 This is incorrect. Fetal monitoring during labor began in
the late 1970s. As such, this likely would have occurred
during the mother’s labor and delivery during the 1980s.
2 This is incorrect. In the ṗast, the average hosṗital
ṗostṗartum stay was 10 days.
Ṗresently, the average ṗostṗartum stay is 48 hours or less.
3 This is incorrect. In the ṗast, exṗectant ṗartners and families
were excluded from the labor and birth exṗerience.
Ṗresent trends involve the exṗectant ṗartner and family in
the labor and birth exṗerience, including ṗresence in the
, oṗerating
room for cesarean births.
4 This is correct. Hosṗital suṗṗort for breastfeeding, including
a lactation
consultant and emṗloyment of the Baby-Friendly Hosṗital
Initiative, were both enacted during the early 1990s.

ṗressure. As a result, the ṗatient died shortly after delivery. This is
an examṗle of what tyṗe of death?
1. Early maternal death
2. Late maternal death
