Chapter 1 21st Century Maternity
Nursing Culturally Competent, Family
and Community Focused questions with
answers .

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



A

Nutritional status is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important action a nurse
should take in this situation.

B

The woman may need assistance from a social worker at some time during her pregnancy, but this is not
the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time.

C

If the woman has identifiable high risk problems, 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, this 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 patient is to receive.

D

,Consistent prenatal care is the best method of preventing or controlling risk factors associated with
infant mortality.



When managing health care for pregnant women at a prenatal clinic, the nurse should recognize that
the most significant barrier to access to care is the pregnant woman's:



a.

Age.

b.

Minority status.

c.

Educational level.

d.

Inability to pay. ANS - D




A

Although adolescent pregnant patients statistically receive less prenatal care, this factor is not the most
significant barrier.

B

Significant disparities in morbidity and mortality rates exist for minority women; however, this is not the
most significant barrier to access to care.

C

Disparities in educational level are associated with morbidity and mortality rates; the educational level is
not the most significant barrier to access to care.

D

The most significant barrier to health care access is the inability to pay for services. This is compounded
by the fact that many physicians refuse to care for women who cannot pay.



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




A

Designing research studies is only one factor of the research process.

B

Data collection is one factor of research.

C

When problems are identified, research can be conducted properly. Research of health care issues leads
to evidence-based practice guidelines.

D

Financial support is necessary to conduct research, but it is not the primary role of the nurse in the
research process.



The nurse caring for the pregnant woman should be aware that the U.S. birth rate shows what trend?



a.

Births to unmarried women are more likely to have less favorable outcomes.

b.

Birth rates for women 40 to 44 years of age are beginning to decline.
