NSG 222 Focused on Family Nursing Problem
set Exam Questions with all answers Correctly
provided Latest 2024/2025

Exercise-prepare for labor - correct answer · At least 30 min of moderate-intense
physical activity daily is recommended.


Federal physical activity guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate-
intensity exercise per week during pregnancy


Pregnancy-air travel - correct answer Is generally safe for the pregnant woman up to
36 weeks of gestation.


The woman should be counseled to avoid long periods of sitting because of the risk of
developing thromboembolism


Vaginal Examination - correct answer After donning sterile gloves, the examiner inserts
their index and middle fingers into the vaginal introitus. Next, the cervix is palpated to
assess dilation, effacement, and position (e.g., posterior or anterior). If the cervix is
open to any degree, the presenting fetal part, fetal position, station, and presence of
molding can be assessed. In addition, the membranes can be evaluated and described
as intact, bulging, or ruptured.


Rupture of Membranes - correct answer When membranes rupture, the priority focus
should be on assessing fetal heart rate (FHR) first to identify a deceleration, which
might indicate cord compression secondary to cord prolapse.


If the membranes are ruptured when the woman comes to the hospital, the (HCP)
should ascertain when this occurred.


Food in labor - correct answer Maternal physiologic responses in labor include
decreased gastric motility & decreased food absorption, which may increase the risk of
nausea & vomiting during the transition stage of labor. Gastric emptying & gastric pH
decrease, which increases the risk of vomiting & aspiration.

,Pitocin - correct answer Synthetic oxytocin (Pitocin) is also used to induce or augment
labor by stimulating uterine contractions.


It is administered piggybacked into the primary IV line w/ an infusion pump titrated to
uterine activity.




The most common adverse effect of oxytocin is uterine hyperstimulation, leading to fetal
compromise & impaired oxygenation


Symptoms to watch for include headache & vomiting.


Assessments after delivery - correct answer During the first hr after birth, vital signs
are taken every 15 min, then every 30 min for the next hr if needed


. A decrease may indicate uterine hemorrhage; an elevation might suggest
preeclampsia.


Rooting - correct answer A reflex when touched on the cheek, the infant turns the head
looking for food


Most newborns will give clues about their hunger status by crying, placing their fingers
or fist in their mouth, rooting around, & sucking.


Fundal massage - correct answer Assess fundal height, position, & firmness every 15
min during the first hr following birth. The fundus needs to remain firm to prevent
excessive postpartum bleeding.


The fundus should be firm (feels like the size & consistency of a grapefruit), located in
the mid line & below the umbilicus.


If it is not firm (boggy), gently massage it until it is firm

, Neutropenia and Neutropenia - correct answer Neutropenia is a common side effect in
people w/ leukemia


Google: Cancer chemotherapy is a common cause of neutropenia. In addition to killing
cancer cells, chemotherapy can also destroy neutrophils & other healthy cells.


Google: the presence of abnormally few neutrophils in the blood, leading to increased
susceptibility to infection. It is an undesirable side effect of some cancer Tx


Labor induction - correct answer stimulation of contractions prior to spontaneous labor


Ensure an informed consent has been signed after the client & her partner have
received complete information about the procedure, including its advantages,
disadvantages, & potential risks.


LABOR INDUCTION - correct answer Evidence is compelling that elective induction of
labor significantly increases the risk of cesarean birth, increased time spent in labor &
birth, instrumented delivery, use of epidural analgesia, & neonatal ICU


Pregnancy-air travel - correct answer · 2nd trimester is perhaps the best time to travel
because there is the least chance of complications.




· 3rd trimester should be advised to defer overseas travel because of concerns about
access to medical care in case of problems such as hypertension; Zika virus & malaria
infection from mosquito bites; phlebitis; or premature labor


Caput succedaneum - correct answer Crosses the suture lines. Resolves within the
first few days.


· Along with molding, fluid can also collect in the scalp (caput succedaneum).


· Caput succedaneum can be described as edema of the scalp at the presenting part.
This swelling crosses suture lines & disappears within 3 to 4 days.
