MULTIPLE CHOICE s s




1. A nurse educator is teaching a group of nursing students about the history of
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



family-centered maternity care. Which statement should the nurse include in the teaching
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss s s ss ss



session?
s s



a. The Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921 promoted family-centered care.
ss s s s s s s s s s s s s



b. Changes in pharmacologic management of labor prompted family-
ss s s ss s s s s ss s s



centered care. ss



c. Demands by physicians for family involvement in childbirth increased
ss ss s s ss ss s s s s s s



the practice s s ss



of family-centered care.
ss s s



d. Parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rather
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



than in a nursery initiated the practice of family-centered care.
s s s s s s ss ss s s s s s s s s s s




ANS: D
As research began to identify the benefits of early, extended parent–infant
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s



contact, parents began to insist that the infant remain with them. This
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



gradually developed into the practice of rooming-in and finally to family-
s s ss ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



centered maternity care. The Sheppard-Towner Act provided funds for state-
s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s



managed programs for mothers and children but did not promote family-
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s



centered care. The changes in pharmacologic management of labor were not
s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s



a factor in family-centered maternity care. Family- centered care was a
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s



request by parents, not physicians.

2. Expectant parents ask a prenatal nurse educator, ―Which setting for childbirth limits
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



the amount of parent–infant interaction?‖ Which answer should the nurse
ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



provide for these parents in order to assist them in choosing an
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



appropriate birth setting?
s s s s s s



a. Birth center s s



b. Home birth s s



c. Traditional hospital birth s s s s



d. Labor, birth, and ss s s



recovery room s s ss




ANS: C
In the traditional hospital setting, the mother may see the infant for only
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



short feeding periods, and the infant is cared for in a separate nursery.
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



Birth centers are set up to allow an increase in parent–infant contact. Home
s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



births allow the greatest amount of
s s s s s s s s ss s s



parent–infant contact. The labor, birth, recovery, and postpartum room setting allows for
s s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



increased parent–infant contact.

,3. Which statement best describes the advantage of a labor, birth, recovery, and
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss s s



s s postpartum (LDRP) room? s s s s



a. The family is in a familiar environment.
s s ss s s s s s s s s



b. They are less expensive than traditional hospital rooms.
ss s s s s s s s s s s s s



c. The infant is removed to the nursery to allow the
s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s



mother to rest.
s s s s ss



d. The woman‘s support system is encouraged to stay
ss s s s s s s s s s s s s



until discharge.
ss ss




ANS: D
Sleeping equipment is provided in a private room. A hospital setting is
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



never a familiar environment to new parents. An LDRP room is not less
s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



expensive than a traditional hospital room. The baby remains with the
s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



mother at all times and is not removed to the nursery for routine care or
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s ss s s s s s s



testing. The father or other designated members of the mother‘s support
s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s



system are encouraged to stay at all times.

4. Which nursing intervention is an independent function of the professional nurse?
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



a. Administering oral analgesics s s s s



b. Requesting diagnostic studies ss s s



c. Teaching the patient perineal care ss s s s s s s



d. Providing wound care to a ss s s ss s s



ss surgical incision ss




ANS: C
Nurses are now responsible for various independent functions, including
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



teaching, counseling, and intervening in nonmedical problems. Interventions
s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s



initiated by the physician and carried out by the nurse are called dependent
s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s ss s s ss ss s s



functions. Administrating oral analgesics is a dependent function; it is
s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



initiated by a physician and carried out by a nurse. Requesting diagnostic
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss ss s s s s s s



studies is a dependent function. Providing wound care is a dependent
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s



function; however, the physician prescribes the type of wound care through
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s ss s s



direct orders or protocol.

5. Which response by the nurse is the most therapeutic when the patient states, ―I‘m so
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



ss afraid to have a cesarean birth‖?
s s s s s s s s s s



a. ―Everything will be OK.‖ ss ss ss



b. ―Don‘t worry about it. It will be over soon.‖ ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



c. ―What concerns you most about a cesarean birth?‖ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



d. ―The physician will be in later and you can talk to
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



him.‖
ss




ANS: C
The response, ―What concerns you most about a cesarean birth‖ focuses
s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



on what the patient is saying and asks for clarification, which is the
s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



most therapeutic response. The response, ―Everything will be ok‖ is belittling the
s s s s ss s s s s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss



patient‘s feelings. The response, ―Don‘t worry about it. It will be over soon‖
ss ss ss ss ss s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s s



will indicate that the patient‘s feelings are not important. The response,
s s s s s s s s ss s s s s s s s s s s ss

, s s ―The physician will be in later and you can talk to him‖ does not allow the
ss s s s s ss s s ss s s ss ss ss s s ss ss s s s s



s s patient to verbalize her feelings when she wishes to do that.
