Question 1
pts
The nurse expects to administer an oxytocic (e.g., Pitocin, Methergine) to a woman after expulsion of
her placenta to:
facilitate rest and relaxation.
prevent infection.
stimulate uterine contraction.
relieve pain.
Oxytocics stimulate uterine contractions, which reduce blood loss after the third stage of labor.
Oxytocics are not used to treat pain or prevent infection. They cause the uterus to contract, which
reduces blood loss. Oxytocics do not facilitate rest and relaxation.
,Question 2
pts
After an emergency birth, the nurse encourages the woman to breastfeed her newborn. The primary
purpose of this activity is to:
initiate the lactation cycle.
stimulate the uterus to contract.
prevent neonatal hypoglycemia.
facilitate maternal-newborn interaction.
Stimulation of the nipples through breastfeeding or manual stimulation causes the release of oxytocin
and prevents maternal hemorrhage. Breastfeeding facilitates maternal-newborn interaction, but it is not
the primary reason a woman is encouraged to breastfeed after an emergency birth. The primary
intervention for preventing neonatal hypoglycemia is thermoregulation. Cold stress can result in
hypoglycemia. The woman is encouraged to breastfeed after an emergency birth to stimulate the
release of oxytocin, which prevents hemorrhage. Breastfeeding is encouraged to initiate the lactation
cycle, but it is not the primary reason for this activity after an emergency birth.
Question 3
pts
The nurse recognizes that a woman is in true labor when she states:
“I passed some thick, pink mucus when I urinated this morning.”
“The contractions in my uterus are getting stronger and closer together.”
“My bag of waters just broke.”
“My baby dropped, and I have to urinate more frequently now.”
Regular, strong contractions with the presence of cervical change indicate that the woman is
experiencing true labor. Loss of the mucous plug (operculum) often occurs during the first stage of
labor or before the onset of labor, but it is not the indicator of true labor. Spontaneous rupture of
membranes often occurs during the first stage of labor, but it is not the indicator of true labor. The
presenting part of the fetus typically becomes engaged in the pelvis at the onset of labor, but this is not
the indicator of true labor.
Question 4
pts
The primary difference between the labor of a nullipara and that of a multipara is the:
sequence of labor mechanisms.
, level of pain experienced.
total duration of labor.
amount of cervical dilation.
Multiparas usually labor more quickly than nulliparas, thus making the total duration of their labor
shorter. Cervical dilation is the same for all labors. The level of pain is individual to the woman, not to
the number of labors she has experienced. The sequence of labor mechanisms remains the same with
all labors.
Question 5
pts
When planning care for a laboring woman whose membranes have ruptured, the nurse recognizes
that the woman’s risk for _________________________ has increased.
intrauterine infection
precipitous labor
supine hypotension
hemorrhage
When the membranes rupture, microorganisms from the vagina can ascend into the amniotic sac and
cause chorioamnionitis and placentitis. Rupture of membranes (ROM) is not associated with fetal or
maternal bleeding. Although ROM may increase the intensity of contractions and facilitate active labor,
it does not result in precipitous labor. ROM has no correlation with supine hypotension.
Question 6
pts
The transition period between intrauterine and extrauterine existence for the newborn:
consists of four phases, two reactive and two of decreased responses.
is referred to as the neonatal period and lasts from birth to day 28 of life.
varies by socioeconomic status and the mother’s age.
applies to full-term births only.
