A nurse is reviewing laboratory results for a client who is at 37 weeks gestation.
The nurse notes that the client is rubella non-immune, is positive for group A beta-
hemolytic streptococcus, and has a blood type of O negative. Which of the
following actions should the nurse take?
Instruct the client to obtain a rubella immunization after delivery

Rationale: This client is not immune to rubella and should receive this
immunization after delivery.
A nurse is talking with a client during her prenatal visit. The client reports a history
of trisomy 13 syndrome in her family and is concerned her fetus might be at risk.
Which of the following statements should the nurse provide?
"If you sign an informed consent form, we can perform genetic screening to see if
your baby has this disorder."

Rationale: Genetic screening has multiple legal and ethical considerations that
must be addressed prior to testing. The client will need to sign an informed consent
form prior to screening.
A nurse is caring for a client who is postpartum and reports her episiotomy incision
is pulling and stinging. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Provide a sitz bath with warm water for the client.

Rationale: The nurse should provide a client who is postpartum with a sitz bath to
decrease episiotomy discomfort. The use of a sitz bath provides warm, moist,
direct heat to the incision area, which helps relieve the pulling and stinging
associated with the healing incision. The warm water increases blood flow to the
area through vasodilation, which also promotes healing and comfort.

pg. 1

,A nurse is teaching a client who is at 8 weeks gestation and has a uterine fibroid
about potential effects of the fibroid during pregnancy. Which of the following
pieces of information should the nurse include?
"The fibroid can increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage."

Rationale: Uterine fibroids can increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage due to
the increased blood supply to the uterus, which supports the fibroid.
A nurse is providing teaching to the parents of a newborn about home safety.
Which of the following statements by the parents indicated an understanding of the
teaching?
"I will place my baby on his back when putting him to sleep."

Rationale: Newborns should always sleep on the back to prevent sudden infant
death syndrome.
A nurse is caring for a newborn directly after birth. Which of the following
medications should the nurse administer to the newborn within 1-2 hours of
delivery?
Erythromycin ophthalmic ointment

Rationale: Every newborn born in the United States should receive erythromycin
ophthalmic ointment to prevent gonorrheal or chlamydial infections that the
newborn can contract during birth.
A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving magnesium sulfate IV. Which of the
following medications should the nurse have available as an antidote to magnesium
sulfate?
Calcium gluconate

Rationale: Calcium gluconate should be kept available as the antidote for
magnesium sulfate toxicity.
A nurse is caring for a client who is in preterm labor and is receiving magnesium
sulfate. The client begins to show indications of magnesium sulfate toxicity. Which
of the following medications should the nurse prepare to administer?



pg. 2

,Calcium gluconate

Rationale: The nurse should discontinue the magnesium sulfate infusion
immediately and prepare to administer calcium gluconate IV to reverse the effects
of magnesium sulfate and to prevent cardiac and respiratory arrest.
A nurse is providing education to a client who is at 34 weeks gestation about a
non-stress test (NST). Which of the following pieces of information should the
nurse include?
"You might have to drink orange juice during the test."

Rationale: An NST monitors for accelerations of the fetal heart rate over a 20-
minute period. During this time, the fetus can be asleep and experience hypo-
activity. The parent might be asked to drink orange juice during testing to stimulate
fetal movements.
A nurse is reviewing the laboratory report for a client with suspected HELLP
syndrome. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider
as an indication of this disorder?
Elevated liver enzymes

Rationale:The nurse should expect a client who has HELLP syndrome to have
elevated liver enzymes. HELLP refers to hemolysis (H), elevated liver enzymes
(LE), and low platelet count (LP). This symptom is a sever form of preeclampsia.
A nurse is caring for a client who is pregnant and has a rupture of membranes. The
nurse notes the presence of meconium-stained fluid. Which of the following
actions should the nurse take?
Gather equipment for neonatal resuscitation.

Rationale: Meconium-stained amniotic fluid can cause neonatal meconium
aspiration syndrome. The nurse should gather equipment for neonatal resuscitation.
A nurse is planning care for a newborn who is receiving phototherapy for an
elevated bilirubin level. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Use a photometer to monitor the lamp's energy



pg. 3

, Rationale: The nurse should monitor the lamp's energy throughout the therapy to
ensure the newborn is receiving the appropriate amount to be effective.
A nurse is assessing the Moro response of a newborn. Which of the following
findings should the nurse expect?
The legs move in a similar pattern of response to the arms

Rationale: Symmetric movement of the arms and legs is an expected finding when
assessing the Moro reflex. If the arms move up, the legs are expected to move up
as well.
A nurse is caring for a client who is 2 hours postpartum and is exhibiting signs of
hypovolemic shock. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Elevate the client's legs to a 30 degree angle.

Rationale: The nurse should position the client on her side with her right hip
elevated by a pillow or in a supine position with her legs elevated to at least a 30
degree angle. This improves blood flow and reduces manifestations of
hypotension.
A nurse is caring for a client who is 8 hr postpartum and is experiencing
hemorrhage. Which of the following actions should the nurse implement after
notifying the provider? (Select all that apply)
-Massage the fundus
-Administer oxytocin with IV fluids
-Insert an indwelling catheter
-Place the client in a lateral position with her legs elevated 30 degrees
A nurse is planning care for a newborn who was born at 30 weeks gestation. The
nurse should plan to assess the newborn for which of the following potential
complications associated with prematurity?
Intraventricular hemorrhage

Rationale: When an infant is born before 34 weeks gestation, the blood vessels in
the brain are fragile. Additionally, premature infants have an impaired coagulation
process and fluctuating blood pressure. Combined, these factors increase the risk of
bleeding into the ventricles of the brain and subsequent neurological damage.
