Test Bank For Maternal & Child Nursing Care, 6th Edition by
Marcia London, Patricia Ladewig, Michele Davidson, Jane W. Ball,
Ruth C. Bindler, Kay Cowen Chapter 1-57
Chapter 01: 21st Century Maternity Nursing
MULTIPLE CHOICES


1. When providing care for a pregnant woman, the nurse should be aware that one of the
most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors is:


a. Diabetes mellitus. c. Chronic hypertension.


b. Mitral valve prolapse (MVP). d. Anemia.


ANS: A


The most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors are diabetes and hypertension
associated with pregnancy. Both of these conditions are associated with maternal obesity. There
are no studies that indicate MVP is among the most frequently reported maternal risk factors.
Hypertension associated with pregnancy, not chronic hypertension, is one of the most frequently
reported maternal medical risk factors. Although anemia is a concern in pregnancy, it is not one
of the most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors in pregnancy.

2. To ensure optimal outcomes for the patient, the contemporary maternity nurse must
incorporate both teamwork and communication with clinicians into her care delivery, The SBAR
technique of communication is an easy-to-remember mechanism for communication. Which of
the following correctly defines this acronym?

,Created By: A Solution



a. Situation, baseline assessment, response


b. Situation, background, assessment, recommendation


c. Subjective background, assessment, recommendation
d. Situation, background, anticipated recommendation ANS: B
The situation, background, assessment, recommendation (SBAR) technique provides a specific
framework for communication among health care providers. Failure to communicate is one of
the major reasons for errors in health care. The SBAR technique has the potential to serve as a
means to reduce errors.

3. The role of the professional nurse caring for childbearing families has evolved to
emphasize:


a. Providing care to patients directly at the bedside.




b. Primarily hospital care of maternity patients.


c. Practice using an evidence-based approach.


d. Planning patient care to cover longer hospital stays.


ANS: C

Professional nurses are part of the team of health care providers who collaboratively care for
patients throughout the childbearing cycle. Providing care to patients directly at the bedside is
one of the nurses tasks; however, it does not encompass the concept of the evolved professional
nurse. Throughout the prenatal period, nurses care for women in clinics and physicians offices
and teach classes to help families prepare for childbirth. Nurses also care for childbearing
families in birthing centers and in the home. Nurses have been critically important in developing
strategies to improve the well-being of women and their infants and have led the efforts to
implement clinical practice guidelines using an evidence-based approach. Maternity patients
have experienced a decreased, rather than an increased, length of stay over the past 2 decades.

4. 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


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 a nutrition
assessment is not the most important action a nurse should take in this situation. The patient may
need assistance from a social worker at some time during her pregnancy, but a referral to a social
worker is not the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time. 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, advising the woman to see an obstetrician 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.

5. During a prenatal intake interview, the nurse is in the process of obtaining an initial
assessment of a 21-year- old Hispanic patient with limited English proficiency. It is important for
the nurse to:




a. Use maternity jargon in order for the patient to become familiar with these terms.


b. Speak quickly and efficiently to expedite the visit.


c. Provide the patient with handouts.


d. Assess whether the patient understands the discussion.


ANS: D


Nurses contribute to health literacy by using simple, common words; avoiding jargon; and
evaluating whether the patient understands the discussion. Speaking slowly and clearly and
focusing on what is important increase understanding. Most patient education materials are
written at too high a level for the average adult and may not be useful for a client with limited
English proficiency.
