Approach,1st- 5th Edition by Virginia
Poole Arcangelo et al. — All Chapters
Respiratory Depression - ANSWERSA condition where breathing becomes
inadequate, which can occur in newborns exposed to narcotics.
Prenatal Vitamins - ANSWERSSupplements taken during pregnancy to ensure
adequate nutrient intake for fetal development.
Albuterol Inhaler - ANSWERSA medication used to relieve bronchospasm in
conditions like asthma, which may be used during pregnancy.
High-Pitched Cry - ANSWERSA symptom often associated with drug withdrawal in
infants, indicating irritability.
Physiologic Integrity - ANSWERSA nursing client needs category focusing on the
maintenance of bodily functions and health.
Physiologic Adaptation - ANSWERSThe body's ability to adjust to changes,
particularly during pregnancy and postpartum.
Alcohol Use in Pregnancy - ANSWERSConsumption of alcohol during pregnancy,
which can lead to developmental issues in the fetus.
Intravenous Morphine - ANSWERSA potent opioid pain reliever that can affect both
the mother and the newborn during labor.
Embryonic Period - ANSWERSThe stage of development from weeks 3 to 8 of
pregnancy, critical for organ formation.
Drug Metabolism - ANSWERSThe process by which the body breaks down
medications, which can change during pregnancy.
Placental Transfer - ANSWERSThe process by which substances cross from the
mother's bloodstream to the fetus.
Increased Renal Blood Flow - ANSWERSA physiological change during pregnancy
that can affect drug clearance.
Nursing Process: Assessment - ANSWERSThe first step in the nursing process,
involving the collection of patient data.
, Nursing Process: Evaluation - ANSWERSThe step in the nursing process that
assesses the effectiveness of interventions.
Nursing Process: Implementation - ANSWERSThe phase in the nursing process
where nursing actions are carried out.
Medication Safety for Breastfeeding - ANSWERSTaking the medication immediately
after breastfeeding minimizes the drug concentration in the breast milk at the next
feeding.
Pumping Breast Milk - ANSWERSPumping the breast milk will not diminish the drugs
or drug concentration in the breast milk.
Medication Timing Before Breastfeeding - ANSWERSTaking the medication 1 hour
before breastfeeding will increase concentrations of the drug in the breast milk.
Teratogenic Effects of Medications - ANSWERSOne of the greatest challenges in
identifying drug effects on a developing fetus has been the lack of clinical trials,
which, by their nature, would put the developing fetus at risk.
MEPREP Study - ANSWERSThe MEPREP study is a retrospective study to learn
about possible outcomes related to known maternal drug exposure.
Risk of Teratogen-Induced Malformations - ANSWERSThe highest risk of teratogen-
induced gross malformations exists during the first trimester.
Embryonic Period - ANSWERSGross malformations are caused by exposure to
teratogens during the embryonic period, which is considered the first trimester.
Infant Response to Narcotic Analgesic - ANSWERSThe blood-brain barrier is not as
well developed in infants, making them more susceptible to CNS effects of
medications.
Respiratory Rate in Infants Post-Medication - ANSWERSRespirations of 22
breaths/minute and a heart rate of 110 beats/minute in an infant after narcotic
administration may indicate immaturity of the blood-brain barrier.
Narcotic Toxic Effects - ANSWERSToxic effects of the narcotic may require
naloxone as an antidote.
Unexpected Side Effects in Infants - ANSWERSUnexpected side effects of
medications in infants can occur due to their physiological differences.
Clinical Trials and Fetus Risk - ANSWERSClinical trials to assess teratogenic risk
would put the fetus at risk.
Pregnant Women and Medication - ANSWERSIt is safer to recommend that
pregnant women avoid medications while pregnant.
