MATERNITY AND WOMEN'S HEALTH CARE 12TH EDITION LOWDERMILK TEST BANK https://www.stuvia.com/ Maternity & Women’s Health Care 12th Edition Lowdermilk Test Bank Chapter 1: 21st Century Maternity and Women’s Health Nursing MULTIPLE CHOICE 1.

b.Cigarette smoking

ANS: A For African-American bi rths, the incidence of LBW infants is twice that of Caucasian births. Race is a nonmodifia ble risk factor. Cigarette smok ing is an important factor in potential infant mortality rates, but it is not the most important. Additionally, smoking is a modifiable r isk factor. Poor n utrition is an important factor in potential infant mortality rates, but it is not the most important. Additionally , nutritional status is a modifiable r isk factor.

b.Collecting data for other researchers
c.Identifying researchable problems

https://www.stuvia.com/ d. Seeking funding to support research studies
ANS: C When problems are ident ified, researc h 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 proce ss. 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. DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand REF: im: 14 TOP: Nursing Process: N/A MSC: Client Needs: Safe and Effective Care Envir onment 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 obstetri cian, not a midwife.
d.Explain to the woman the importance of keeping her prenatal care appointments.
ANS: D 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 shoul d take in this situation. The client may need assistance from a social worke r at some time during her pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the most important aspect the nurse shoul d address at this ti me. If the woma n 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 issue s. In addition, advising the woman to see an obstetrician is not the most important aspect on which the nurse shoul d focus at this time, and it is not appropriate for a nurse to advise or mana ge the type of care a client is to receive.

https://www.stuvia.com/ MSC: Client Needs: Health Promotion and Maintenance 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 slowl y 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 f or a client with limited English proficiency.
