MULTIPLE CHOICE FT




1. A nurse educator is teaching a group of nursing students about the history of family-centered
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




maternity care. Which statement should the nurse include in the teaching session?
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




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




b. Changes in pharmacologic management of labor prompted family-centered care. FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT

family-centered care. FT FT




d. Parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rather than in a FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




nursery initiated the practice of family-centered care.
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




ANS: F T D
As research began to identify the benefits of early, extended parent–infant contact, parents began
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




to insist that the infant remain with them. This gradually developed into the practice of rooming-in
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




and finally to family-centered maternity care. The Sheppard-Towner Act provided funds for state-
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




managed programs for mothers and children but did not promote FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




family-centered care. The changes in pharmacologic management of labor were not a factor in FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




family-centered maternity care. Family-centered care was a request by parents, not physicians.

ANS: F T C
In the traditional hospital setting, the mother may see the infant for only short feeding periods, and
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




the infant is cared for in a separate nursery. Birth centers are set up to allow an increase in parent–
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




infant contact. Home births allow the greatest amount of parent–infant contact. The labor, birth,
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




recovery, and postpartum room setting allows for increased parent–infant contact.

a. Administering oral analgesics FT FT

Nurses are now responsible for various independent functions, including teaching, counseling, and
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




intervening in nonmedical problems. Interventions initiated by the physician and carried out by
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




the nurse are called dependent functions. Administrating oral analgesics is a dependent function;
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




it is initiated by a physician and carried out by a nurse. Requesting diagnostic studies is a
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT F T FT FT




dependent function. Providing wound care is a dependent function; however, the physician
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




prescribes the type of wound care through direct orders or protocol.

have a cesarean birth”? FT FT FT

a. “Everything will be OK.” FT FT FT

c. “What concerns you most about a cesarean birth?” FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




d. “The physician will be in later and you can talk to him.”
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




ANS: F T C
The response, “What concerns you most about a cesarean birth” focuses on what the patient is saying
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




and asks for clarification, which is the most therapeutic response. The response,
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




“Everything will be ok” is belittling the patient’s feelings. The response, “Don’t worry about it. It FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




will be over soon” will indicate that the patient’s feelings are not important. The
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




response, “The physician will be in later and you can talk to him” does not allow the patient to verbalize
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




her feelings when she wishes to do that.

The third step in the nursing process involves planning care for problems that were identified during
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




assessment. The evaluation phase is determining whether the goals have been met.
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




During the assessment phase, data are collected. The intervention phase is when the plan of care is

carried out.

FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




a. The patient will not exhibit further signs of infection.
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




b. Maintain the patient’s fluid intake at 1000 mL/8 hour. FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT

d. Monitor the patient to detect therapeutic response to antibiotic therapy. FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




ANS: F T D
In a collaborative problem, the goal should be nurse-oriented and reflect the nursing
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




interventions of monitoring or observing. Monitoring for complications such as further signs of
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




infection is an independent nursing role. Intake and output is an independent nursing role.

Interventions might not be carried out if they are not detailed and specific. “Force fluids” is not FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




specific; it does not state how much or how often. Encouraging the patient to turn, cough, and
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




breathe deeply is not detailed or specific. Observing interaction with the infant does not state how
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




often this procedure should be done. Assisting the patient to ambulate for 10 minutes within a

This response uses reflection to show concern and open communication. The otherchoices are blocks to
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




communication. Asking if the patient has a mother who can come and assist blocks further
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




communication with the patient. Telling the patient to read the literature before leaving does not allow
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




the patient to express her feelings further. Sharing your own birth experience is inappropriate.

10. The nurse is writing an expected outcome for the nursing diagnosis—acute pain related to tissue
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




trauma, secondary to vaginal birth, as evidenced by patient stating pain of 8 on a scale of 10.
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




Which expected outcome is correctly stated for this problem?
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




a. Patient will state that pain is a 2 on a scale of 10. FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




b. Patient will have a reduction in pain after administration ofthe prescribedFT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




analgesic. FT




c. Patient will state an absence of pain 1 hour after administration ofthe prescribed

analgesic. FT




d. Patient will state that pain is a 2 on a scale of 10, 1 hour after the administration of the
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




prescribed analgesic.
FT FT




ANS: F T D
The outcome should be patient-centered, measurable, realistic, and attainable and within a specified
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




timeframe. Patient stating that her pain is now 2 on a scale of 10 lacks a timeframe. Patient having a
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




reduction in pain after administration of the prescribed analgesic lacks a measurement. Patient stating
FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT FT




an absence of pain 1 hour after the administration of prescribed analgesic is unrealistic.

The nurse should determine which problem needs immediate attention. Risk for injury is the problem

that has the priority at this time because it is a safety problem. Risk for anxiety, imbalanced nutrition,
