Question 1
Type: MCSA
The nurse is speaking to students about changes in maternal–newborn care. One change is that self-care has
gained wide acceptance with patients, the healthcare community, and third-party payers due to research
findingsthat suggest that it:
1. Shortens newborn length of stay.
2. Decreases use of home health agencies.
3. Reduces healthcare costs.
4. Decreases the number of emergency department visits.
CORRECT ANSWER: 3
Rationale 1: Length of stay is often determined by third-party payer (insurance company) policies as well as
physiologic stability of the mother and newborn. Home healthcare agencies often are involved in patient care
todecrease hospital stay time.
Rationale 2: Home healthcare agencies often are involved in patient care to decrease hospital stay time.
Rationale 3: Research indicates self-care significantly reduces healthcare costs.
Rationale 4: Acute emergencies are addressed by emergency departments, and are not delayed by those
practicingself-care.

thenurse should take which actions?

classesfor the expectant families.
Rationale 3: By working with other staff and doctors, the nurse is able to implement change as needed within the
birthing unit.
Rationale 4: Doulas are encouraged to be part of the birthing process as the patient wishes. They are mainly
thereas a coach.
Rationale 5: Patients are going home sooner all the time, so there needs to be more follow-up in the home.
Question 3
The nurse is telling a new patient how technology used in maternal–newborn care has changed the way the
nursecares for her patients. An example of this is:
1. Elective inductions, requested cesareans, epidural anesthesia, and fetal monitoring.
