Which instruction would be<br>most effective in preventing pooling of blood in the lower extremities?<br>Move about every hour<br>Pooling of blood in the lower extremities results from the enlarged uterus exerting<br>pressure on the pelvic veins. Moving about every hour will straighten out the pelvic<br>veins and increase venous return.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A 26-year-old, gravida 2, para 1 client is admitted to the hospital at 28-weeks gestation<br>in preterm labor. She is given 3 doses of terbutaline sulfate (Brethine) 0.25 mg<br>subcutaneously to stop her labor contractions. The nurse plans to monitor for which<br>primary side effect of terbutaline sulfate?<br>Tachycardia and a feeling of nervousness<br>Terbutaline sulfate (Brethine), a beta-sympathomimetic drug, stimulates beta-adrenergic<br>receptors in the uterine muscle to stop contractions. The beta-adrenergic agonist<br>properties of the drug may cause tachycardia, increased cardiac output, restlessness,<br>headache, and a feeling of &#8220;nervousness&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When do the anterior and posterior fontanels close?<br>anterior fontanel closes at 12 to 18 months and the posterior by the end of the second<br>month.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When assessing a client who is at 12-weeks gestation, the nurse recommends that she<br>and her husband consider attending childbirth preparation classes. When is the best<br>time for the couple to attend these classes?<br>30 weeks gestation<br>at 30 weeks gestation is closest (of the options) to the time parents would be ready for<br>such classes. Learning is facilitated by an interested pupil! The couple is most<br>interested in childbirth toward the end of the pregnancy when they are psychologically<br>ready for the termination of the pregnancy, and the birth of their child is an immediate<br>concern.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The nurse should encourage the laboring client to begin pushing when\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>lOMoAR cPSD|19500986<br>the cervix is completely dilated.<br>Pushing begins with the second stage of labor, i.e., when the cervix is completely<br>dilated at 10 cm (C). If pushing begins before the cervix is completely dilated the cervix<br>1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>lOMoAR cPSD|19500986<br>can become edematous and may never completely dilate, necessitating an operative<br>delivery. Many primigravida\u2019s begin active labor 100% effaced and then proceed to<br>dilate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"6\">\n<li>The nurse instructs a laboring client to use accelerated-blow breathing. The client<br>begins to complain of tingling fingers and dizziness. What action should the nurse take?<br>Have the client breathe into her cupped hands<br>Tingling fingers and dizziness are signs of hyperventilation (blowing off too much carbon<br>dioxide). Hyperventilation is treated by retaining carbon dioxide. This can be facilitated<br>by breathing into a paper bag or cupped hands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Twenty-four hours after admission to the newborn nursery, a full-term male infant<br>develops localized edema on the right side of his head. The nurse knows that, in the<br>newborn, an accumulation of blood between the periosteum and skull which does not<br>cross the suture line is a newborn variation known as\u2026<br>a cephalohematoma, caused by forceps trauma and may last up to 8 weeks.<br>Cephalohematoma, a slight abnormal variation of the newborn, usually arises within the<br>first 24 hours after delivery. Trauma from delivery causes capillary bleeding between the<br>periosteum and the skull.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When does the head return to its normal shape?<br>7-10 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What did Nurse theorist Reva Rubin describe?<br>The initial postpartum period as the &#8220;taking-in phase,&#8221; which is characterized by<br>maternal reliance on others to satisfy the needs for comfort, rest, nourishment, and<br>closeness to families and the newborn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A couple, concerned because the woman has not been able to conceive, is referred to a<br>healthcare provider for a fertility workup and a hysterosalpingography is scheduled.<br>Which post procedure complaint indicates that the fallopian tubes are patent?<br>Shoulder pain<br>If the tubes are patent (open), pain is referred to the shoulder from a sub diaphragmatic<br>collection of peritoneal dye\/gas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which nursing intervention is most helpful in relieving postpartum uterine contractions or<br>&#8220;afterpains?&#8221;<br>Lying prone with a pillow on the abdomen<br>2<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>lOMoAR cPSD|19500986<br>Lying prone keeps the fundus contracted and is especially useful with multiparas, who<br>commonly experience afterpains due to lack of uterine tone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"12\">\n<li>Which maternal behavior is the nurse most likely to see when a new mother receives<br>her infant for the first time?<br>Her arms and hands receive the infant and she then traces the infant&#8217;s profile with her<br>fingertips.<br>Attachment\/bonding theory indicates that most mothers will demonstrate behaviors<br>described in during the first visit with the newborn, which may be at delivery or later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A client at 32-weeks gestation is hospitalized with severe pregnancy-induced<br>hypertension (PIH), and magnesium sulfate is prescribed to control the symptoms.<br>Which assessment finding indicates the therapeutic drug level has been achieved?<br>A decreased in respiratory rate from 24 to 16<br>Magnesium sulfate, a CNS depressant, helps prevent seizures. A decreased respiratory<br>rate indicates that the drug is effective. (Respiratory rate below 12 indicates toxic<br>effects.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Urinary output must be monitored when administering magnesium sulfate and should be<br>at least 30 ml per hour. (The therapeutic level of magnesium sulfate for a PIH client is<br>4.8 to 9.6 mg\/dl.) What is the therapeutic level of magnesium sulfate?<br>The therapeutic level of magnesium sulfate for a PIH client is 4.8 to 9.6 mg\/dl.<br>What does it help prevent? helps prevent seizures<br>What indicates toxic levels? 3<br>Respiratory rate below 12 indicates toxic effects.<br>Urine output of less than 100 ml\/4 hours<br>Absent DTRs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Twenty minutes after a continuous epidural anesthetic is administered, a laboring<br>client&#8217;s blood pressure drops from 120\/80 to 90\/60. What action should the nurse take?<br>Place woman in a lateral position<br>The nurse should immediately turn the woman to a lateral position, place a pillow or<br>wedge under the right hip to deflect the uterus, increase the rate of the main line IV<br>infusion, and administer oxygen by face mask at 10-12 L\/min. If the blood pressure<br>remains low, especially if it further decreases, the anesthesiologist\/healthcare provider<br>should be notified immediately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A client at 28-weeks gestation calls the antepartum clinic and states that she is<br>experiencing a small amount of vaginal bleeding which she describes as bright red. She<br>further states that she is not experiencing any uterine contractions or abdominal pain.<br>What instruction should the nurse provide?<br>3<br><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>lOMoAR cPSD|19500986lOMoAR cPSD|19500986HESI MATERNITY EXIT EXAM 2022-2023 EXAM 6 LATESTVERSIONS (V1-V6) REAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND CORRECTANSWERS|AGRADEVERSION 1 lOMoAR cPSD|19500986the cervix is completely dilated.Pushing begins with the second stage of labor, i.e., when the cervix is completelydilated at 10 cm (C).
