1. The nurse is caring for a patient who is in labor with her first child. The patient’s mother is
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
present for support and notes that things have changed in the delivery room since she last
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
gave birth in the early 1980s. Which current trend or intervention may the patient’s mother
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
find most different?
jj jj jj
1. Fetal monitoring throughout labor jj jj jj
2. Postpartum stayof 10 days jj j jj jj

Feedback
1 This is incorrect. Fetal monitoring during labor began in the late 1970s. As such,
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
this likely would have occurred during the mother’s labor and delivery during
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
the 1980s.
jj jj
2 This is incorrect. In the past, the average hospital postpartum stay was 10 days.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj
Presently, the average postpartum stay is 48 hours or less.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
3 This is incorrect. In the past, expectant partners and families were excluded from
j jj jj jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj
the labor and birth experience. Present trends involve the expectant partner and
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
family in the labor and birth experience, including presence in the operating
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
room for cesarean births. jj jj jj
4 This is correct. Hospital support for breastfeeding, including a lactation
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
consultant and employment of the Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative, were both
jj j jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj
enacted during the early 1990s.

2. A patient with a historyof hypertension is giving birth. During delivery, the staff was not
jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
able to stabilize the patient’s blood pressure. As a result, the patient died shortly after
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
delivery. This is an example of what type of death?
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
1. Earlymaternal death j jj
2. Late maternal death j jj

Feedback
1 This is incorrect. Early maternal death is not an example of maternal death.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
Examples of maternal death include late maternal death, indirect obstetric death,
jj jj j jj jj jj j jj jj jj jj
direct obstetric death, and pregnancy-related death.
jj jj jj jj jj jj
2 This is incorrect. Late maternal death occurs 42 days after termination of
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
pregnancy from a direct or indirect obstetric cause.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
3 This is incorrect. Direct obstetric death results from complications during
j jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
pregnancy, labor, birth, and/or postpartum period. jj jj jj jj jj
4 This is correct. Indirect obstetric death is caused by a preexisting disease, or a
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj j jj jj jj jj
disease that develops during pregnancy. jj jj jj jj

3. The nurse is providing education to a patient who has given birth to her first child and is
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
being discharged home. The patient expressed concern regarding infant mortality and
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The patient had an uncomplicated pregnancy, labor,
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
and vaginal delivery. She has a body mass index of 25 and has no other health conditions.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
The infant is healthy and was delivered full-term. What will be most helpful thing to explain
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
to the patient?

1. Uses of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy(ECMO)

Concept: Health Promotion j j
Difficulty: Moderate

Feedback
1 This is incorrect. EMCO has been cited as one of the factors that has reduced
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
infant mortality among preterm infants.
jj jj jj jj jj
2 This is incorrect. Although advances in medical treatments have decreased infant
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
mortality, exogenous pulmonarysurfactant is primarilyused to reduce mortalityof
jj jj jj j jj jj j jj jj jj j
preterm infants.
jj jj
3 This is incorrect. The Baby-FriendlyHospital Initiative was developed to support
j jj jj jj j jj jj jj jj jj
breastfeeding and is not directly linked to reduced infant mortality or SIDS.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj j jj
4 This is correct. The Back to Sleep campaign and the Safe to Sleep campaigns were
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
designed to promote healthy infant sleeping habits. The decrease in SIDS from
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
1995 to 2015 was attributed to the Safe to Sleep campaign.

obesity and diabetes.

2 This is correct. Neonatal blindness, maternal death, and neonatal death are all
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
associated with a patient who contracts syphilis during pregnancy.
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
3 This is incorrect. Chlamydial pneumonia is associated with maternal chlamydia.

4 This is incorrect. Teen mothers may have a higher risk of contracting sexually

transmitted illnesses and hypertension during pregnancy; however, maternal
jj jj jj jj jj jj jj jj
syphilis is not associated with fetal hypertension.
