Chapter 01: 21st Century Maternity and Women’s Health Nursing
Lowdermilk: Maternity & Women’s Health Care, 12th Edition


MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. In evaluating the level of a pregnant woman‘s risk of having a low-birth-weight (LBW) infant,
which factor is the most important for the nurse to consider?
a. African-American race
b. Cigarette smoking
c. Poor nutritional status
d. Limited maternal education
ANS: A
For African-American births, the incidence of LBW infants is twice that of Caucasian births.
Race is a nonmodifiable risk factor. Cigarette smoking is an important factor in potential
infant mortality rates, but it is not the most important. Additionally, smoking is a modifiable
risk factor. Poor nutrition is an important factor in potential infant mortality rates, but it is not
the most important. Additionally, nutritional status is a modifiable risk factor. Maternal
education is an important factor in potential infant mortality rates, but it is not the most
important. Additionally, maternal education is a modifiable risk factor.

2. What is the primary role of practicing nurses in the research process?
a. Designing research studies
b. Collecting data for other researchers
c. Identifying researchable problems
d. Seeking funding to support research studies
ANS: C
When problems are identified, research can be properly conducted. Research of health care
issues leads to evidence-based practice guidelines. Designing research studies is only one
factor of the research process. Data collection is another factor of research. Financial support
is necessary to conduct research, but it is not the primary role of the nurse in the research
process.

3. A 23-year-old African-American woman is pregnant with her first child. Based on the
statistics for infant mortality, which plan is most important for the nurse to implement?
a. Perform a nutrition assessment.

b. Refer the woman to a social worker.
c. Advise the woman to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
d. Explain to the woman the importance of keeping her prenatal care appointments.
ANS: D

,Maternity & Women’s Health Care 12th Edition
Lowdermilk Test Bank
Consistent prenatal care is the best method of preventing or controlling risk factors associated
with infant mortality. Nutritional status is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the
most important action a nurse should take in this situation. The client may need assistance
from a social worker at some time during her pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is
not the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time. If the woman has
identifiable high-risk problems, then her health care may need to be provided by a physician.
However, it cannot be assumed that all African-American women have high-risk issues. In
addition, advising the woman to see an obstetrician is not the most important aspect on which
the nurse should focus at this time, and it is not appropriate for a nurse to advise or manage
the type of care a client is to receive.

4. During a prenatal intake interview, the nurse is in the process of obtaining an initial
assessment of a 21-year-old Hispanic client with limited English proficiency. Which action is
the most important for the nurse to perform?
a. Use maternity jargon to enable the client to become familiar with these terms.
b. Speak quickly and efficiently to expedite the visit.
c. Provide the client with handouts.
d. Assess whether the client understands the discussion.
ANS: D
Nurses contribute to health literacy by using simple, common words, avoiding jargon, and
evaluating whether the client understands the discussion. Speaking slowly and clearly and
focusing on what is important will increase understanding. Most client education materials are
written at a level too high for the average adult and may not be useful for a client with limited
English proficiency.

5. The nurses working at a newly established birthing center have begun to compare their
performance in providing maternal-newborn care against clinical standards. This comparison
process is most commonly known as what?
a. Best practices network
b. Clinical benchmarking
c. Outcomes-oriented practice
d. Evidence-based practice
ANS: C
Outcomes-oriented practice measures the effectiveness of the interventions and quality of care
against benchmarks or standards. The term best practice refers to a program or service that
has been recognized for its excellence. Clinical benchmarking is a process used to compare
one‘s own performance against the performance of the best in an area of service. The term
evidence-based practice refers to the provision of care based on evidence gained through
research and clinical trials.

6. Which statement best exemplifies contemporary maternity nursing?
a. Use of midwives for all vaginal deliveries
b. Family-centered care
c. Free-standing birth clinics
d. Physician-driven care
ANS: B
Contemporary maternity nursing focuses on the family‘s needs and desires. Fathers, partners,
grandparents, and siblings may be present for the birth and participate in activities such as
cutting the baby‘s umbilical cord. Both midwives and physicians perform vaginal deliveries.
Free-standing clinics are an example of alternative birth options. Contemporary maternity
nursing is driven by the relationship between nurses and their clients.

7. A 38-year-old Hispanic woman vaginally delivered a 9-pound, 6-ounce baby girl after being
in labor for 43 hours. The baby died 3 days later from sepsis. On what grounds could the
woman have a legitimate legal case for negligence?
a. Inexperienced maternity nurse was assigned to care for the client.
b. Client was past her due date by 3 days.
c. Standard of care was not met.
d. Client refused electronic fetal monitoring.
ANS: C
Not meeting the standard of care is a legitimate factor for a case of negligence. An
inexperienced maternity nurse would need to display competency before being assigned to
care for clients on his or her own. This client may have been past her due date; however, a
term pregnancy often goes beyond 40 weeks of gestation. Although fetal monitoring is the
standard of care, the client has the right to refuse treatment. This refusal is not a case for
negligence, but informed consent should be properly obtained, and the client should have
signed an against medical advice form when refusing any treatment that is within the standard
of care.

8. When the nurse is unsure how to perform a client care procedure that is high risk and low
volume, his or her best action in this situation would be what?
a. Ask another nurse.
b. Discuss the procedure with the client‘s physician.
c. Look up the procedure in a nursing textbook.
d. Consult the agency procedure manual, and follow the guidelines for the procedure.
