An African American, upper-middle-class, 19-year-old woman d. An Asian, low-income, 30-year-old woman ANS: d Feedback a. Although age is a risk factor, income contributes to disparity. b. Although African American women are at increased risk, income accounts for the largest disparity. c. Although age and race contribute to increased risk, income accounts for the largest disparity. d. Although age and race contribute to increased risk, income accounts for the largest disparity. 4. A neonate born at 36 weeks gestation is classified as which of the following? a. Very premature b. Moderately premature c. Late premature d. Term ANS: c Feedback a. Very premature is less than 32 weeks’ gestation. b. Moderately premature is 32 to 33 completed weeks’ gestation. c. Correct. Late premature is 34 to 36 completed weeks’ gestation. d. Term is 37 to 42 weeks’ gestation. 5. The perinatal nurse explains to the student nurse that a goal of the Healthy People 2020 report is to: a. Increase proportion of infants who are breastfed to 93.1%. b. Increase proportion of infants who are breastfed to 90.7%. c. Increase proportion of infants who are breastfed to 85.6%. d. Increase proportion of infants who are breastfed to 83.9%. ANS: d A goal of Healthy People 2020 is to increase the proportion of infants who are breastfed from 74% to 81.9%. 6. The perinatal nurse explains to the student nurse that is the leading cause of infant death in the United States. a. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome b. Respiratory distress of newborns c. Disorders related to short gestation and low birth weight d. Congenital malformations and chromosomal abnormalities ANS: d 7. Which of the following statements are true related to teen pregnancies? (Select all that apply.) a. Teen mothers are at higher risk for HIV. b. Teen mothers are at higher risk for hypertensive problems. c. The birth rate for teenaged women has increased in the past 15 years. d. Infants born to teen mothers are at higher risk for health problems. ANS: a, b, d Health statistics report higher risk for HIV, for hypertensive problems, and for health problems to infants born to teen mothers. Birth rates for teen mothers in all age categories have decreased since 1991. Chapter 2- Theories of Aging 1. Which of the following statements most accurately conveys an aspect of the error theory of aging? A) Perpetuation of DNA mutations results in organ and system malfunction. B) Age-related dysfunction of organs, tissues, and body systems results in mutation of body DNA. C) The number of cell divisions is genetically predetermined. D) Errors in the function of various organs contribute to changes in the genetic code of various body cells. Ans: A Feedback: The error theory of aging proposes that genetic mutations are perpetuated through the aging process, resulting in organ malfunction and eventual decline in body function. Organ malfunction results from, but does not cause, the genetic mutations in question. A genetic predetermination of the number of cell divisions is associated with the programmed theory of aging. Origin: Chapter 2- Theories of Aging, 2 Chapter: 2 Client Needs: D4 Cognitive Level: Comprehension Difficulty: Moderate Integrated Process: Nursing process Objective: 2 Page and Header: 15, Genetic Theories 1.The error theory of aging proposes a cause-and-effect relationship between the genetic activity of body cells and the effects of aging. Place the following steps in the error theory of aging in the correct chronological order. Use all the options. A) Organ, tissue, and system malfunction B) Perpetuation of mutation during cell divisions C) DNA mutation D) Overall decline in body functions E) Decline in body functions
