ALREADY ANSWERED

1. What abnormality is a complication of monochorionic twins in which deep
vascular anastomoses connect circulation of the twins?

Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome

Placenta Previa

Placenta Percreta

Abruptio Placentae

2. In a scenario where a newborn presents with limited movement of the
arm after a difficult delivery, what fracture should be suspected and why?

Clavicle fracture, due to the likelihood of injury during shoulder
dystocia.

Skull fracture, because of the pressure during delivery.

Radius fracture, as it is common in all newborns.

Humerus fracture, due to the position of the infant during birth.

3. Given the symptoms of apneic, bradycardic, and cyanotic at birth, along
with hypotension and hypoperfusion, what immediate intervention
should be prioritized to address the newborn's condition?

Provide respiratory support and assess for underlying cardiac
issues.

Administer intravenous fluids only.

Perform a complete blood count immediately.

Wait for the newborn to stabilize before taking any action.

,4. In a scenario where a newborn shows no improvement in heart rate
despite bag and mask ventilation, what should be the next step in
assessment?

Evaluate bilateral chest wall excursion for effective ventilation.

Check peripheral color for signs of oxygenation.

Increase the pressure of the bag to force more air into the lungs.

Monitor the newborn's blood pressure for cardiovascular stability.

5. A newborn presents with signs of edema and is diagnosed with hydrops
fetalis. Which of the following interventions would most directly address
the underlying cause of the edema?

Reducing capillary pressure through fluid management

Increasing capillary permeability with medication

Enhancing lymphatic drainage through physical therapy

Administering diuretics to reduce overall fluid volume

6. What type of heart defect is indicated by a loud, harsh, holosystolic
murmur in a newborn?

Ventricular septal defect

Pulmonary valve stenosis

Transposition of the great vessels

Atrial septal defect

7. Describe the significance of a drug being bound to serum albumin in the
context of pharmacology.

A drug bound to serum albumin is considered inactive and
cannot exert its therapeutic effects until it is released.

A drug bound to serum albumin is fully active and can immediately
affect the target cells.

, A drug bound to serum albumin is ionized and therefore more
effective.

A drug bound to serum albumin is always eliminated faster from
the body.

8. Choose two features of transient neonatal pustular melanosis. 1. Usually
present at birth 2. Lesions do not occur on the palms and soles 3. Papules
are surrounded by an erythematous halo 4. Lesions rupture easily leaving
behind a hyperpigmented macule

1 and 2

1 and 4

2 and 4

3 and 4

9. Describe the significance of finding gram positive cocci in chains in a
blood culture from a term infant with respiratory distress.

The presence of gram positive cocci in chains suggests a
possible infection with Group B streptococcus, which is a
common cause of sepsis in newborns.

It indicates a viral infection that does not require antibiotic
treatment.

It suggests a bacterial infection that is easily treatable with over-
the-counter medications.

It indicates a fungal infection that is common in newborns.

10. What gender is affected by Turner Syndrome?

Female

Male

, 11. What is the primary pathophysiologic cause of edema in hydrops fetalis?

Increased capillary pressure

Decreased capillary permeability

Lymphatic obstruction

Increased lymphatic drainage

12. A preterm infant is diagnosed with anemia and is being treated with
erythropoietin. What dietary recommendation should be prioritized to
enhance the treatment's effectiveness?

Increase iron intake

Increase folate intake

Increase protein intake

Increase calcium intake

13. Describe the impact of 21-hydroxylase deficiency on the development
of external genitalia in infants.

21-hydroxylase deficiency leads to abnormal development of
external genitalia in affected infants.

21-hydroxylase deficiency has no effect on external genitalia
development.

21-hydroxylase deficiency only affects internal genital structures.

21-hydroxylase deficiency results in normal external genitalia
development.

14. Why might a drug bound to albumin be temporarily inactive?

Because albumin acts as a catalyst for drug metabolism

Because albumin prevents the drug from entering the
bloodstream
