  1. Which is true regarding perinatal nurses?
    a. They provide care for only childbearing persons and babies.
    b. They require advanced practice education beyond an entry to practice degree.
    c. They work with patients and families from preconception throughout the
    child-bearing year.
    d. They provide care for families with children up to age 18 years.
    ANS: C
    Perinatal nurses are those nurses who work collaboratively with patients and families from the preconception period throughout the
    child-bearing year. Pediatric nurses care for children from birth up to age 18 years. Perinatal or pediatric nurses also provide care
    for the family. Perinatal nurses often do have advanced education, but this is not a requirement.

  2. Which is true regarding pediatric nurses?
    a. They provide care for children up to and including 13 years of age.
    b. They require advanced practice education beyond an entry to practice degree.
    c. They work with patients and families throughout the child-bearing year.
    d. They provide care for children and families up to age 18 years.
    ANS: D
    Pediatric nurses care for children from birth up to age 18 years. Perinatal nurses are those nurses who work collaboratively with
    patients and families from the preconception period throughout the child-bearing year. Perinatal and pediatric nurses also provide
    care for the family. Pediatric nurses often do have advanced education, but this is not a requirement.

  3. Which of the following would not be included in a discussion of the social determinants of health (SDOH)?
    a. Racism
    b. Daily exercise
    c. Chronic illness
    d. Presence of playgrounds
    ANS: C
    Chronic illness is not considered a SDOH. Racism, healthy behaviours (exercise) and healthy outdoor spaces (playgrounds) can all
    impact a person\u2019s health.

  4. An Indigenous patient is pregnant with their first child. Which evidence-informed intervention is most important for the nurse to
    implement?
    a. Perform a nutrition assessment.
    b. Refer the patient to a social worker.
    c. Advise the patient to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
    d. Explain to the patient the importance of keeping their prenatal care appointments.
    ANS: D
    Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants. Nutritional status is an important modifiable risk factor, but it 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 the pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time. If the
    patient has identifiable high-risk problems, their health care may need to be provided by a physician. However, it cannot be
    assumed that all Indigenous patients have high-risk issues. In addition, advising the patient to see an obstetrician is not the most
    important aspect on which the nurse should focus at this time.

  5. Which social determinant of health has the greatest influence on health status and behaviours?
    a. Education and literacy
    b. Income and social status
    c. Employment and working conditions
    d. Biology and genetic endowment
    ANS: B
    Income and social status has the greatest influence on health status and behaviours and use of health care services. Lower-income
    Canadians have poorer health, with more chronic illness and earlier death, than that of higher-income Canadians, regardless of age,
    gender, culture, race, or residence.

    1. Which is an example of invisible poverty?
      a. Insufficient clothing
      b. Limited employment opportunities
      c. Poor sanitation
      d. Deteriorating housing
      ANS: B
      Invisible poverty refers to social and cultural deprivation, such as limited employment opportunities, inferior educational
      opportunities, lack of or inferior medical services and health care facilities, and an absence of public services. Visible poverty refers
      to lack of money or material resources, which includes insufficient clothing, poor sanitation, and deteriorating housing.

    2. What is the primary role of practicing nurses in the research process?
      a. Designing research studies
      b. Collecting data for other researchers
      c. Identifying areas for further research
      d. Seeking funding to support research studies
      ANS: C
      The primary role of the practicing nurse is to identify areas for further research in the health and health care of women, children,
      and families. When problems are identified, research can be conducted properly. Research of health care issues leads to
      evidence-informed practice guidelines. Designing research studies is only one factor of the research process. Data collection is one
      factor of research. Financial support is necessary to conduct research, but it is not the primary role of the nurse in the research
      process.

    3. Which event shifted the focus of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) away from a population health and health promotion
      focus?
      a. Shift to home births
      b. Emergence of avian influenza
      c. United Nations Sustainable Goals
      d. Increase in the maternal mortality rate
      ANS: B
      The emergence of the avian influenza shifted the focus of the PHAC from population health and a health promotion focus to a
      focus on planning for a pandemic. There has been no shift to home births from hospital births in Canada. The United Nations
      Millennium Goals did not cause a focal shift for the PHAC. There has not been an increase in the maternal mortality rate.

    4. The World Health Organization has identified which period as the most important for overall development throughout a person\u2019s
      lifetime?
      a. Preconception
      b. Early childhood
      c. Young adult
      d. Adolescence
      ANS: B
      The period from prenatal development to eight years of age is critical for cognitive, social, emotional and physical development of
      the child. It is important to identify where children are most at risk for adversity and to intervene accordingly.

    5. Which is a characteristic of integrative healing?
      a. It replaces conventional Western modalities of treatment.
      b. It is used by only a small number of Canadian adults.
      c. It recognizes the value of patients\u2019 input into their health care.
      d. It focuses primarily on the disease an individual is experiencing.
      ANS: C
      Integrative healing encompasses complementary and alternative therapies and healing modalities that offer human-centred care
      based on philosophies that recognize the value of the patient\u2019s input and honour the individual\u2019s beliefs, values, and desires.
      Alternative and complementary therapies are part of an integrative approach to health care.

      1. Which of the following was highlighted in the Truth and Reconciliation Report (2015)?
        a. Increased transportation for Indigenous people to travel to tertiary care centres for
        health care.
        b. Recognize the value of Indigenous healing practices and their use in the health
        care system.
        c. Treat health concerns of Indigenous people with Western ways of healing.
        d. Educate health care providers about Indigenous healing practices to eliminate the
        role of the Elder.
        ANS: B
        The TRC (2015) final report calls on health care providers to recognize the value of Indigenous healing practices and to use them in
        the treatment of Indigenous patients in collaboration with Indigenous healers and Elders where requested by Indigenous patients. It
        is imperative that health care providers become knowledgeable in Indigenous healing practices, not to eliminate the role of the
        Elder but to work collaboratively with Elders. Health care services need to be available where Indigenous people work and live and
        not require increased transportation to tertiary care centres for health care.

      2. Which has directly increased the life expectancy of children experiencing a chronic disease?
        a. Early postpartum discharges
        b. Enhanced technology
        c. The reduction in acceptable genetic screening options
        d. Rural health services delivered via telehealth
        ANS: B
        Enhanced technology has increased the life expectancy of many children with chronic diseases. Early postpartum discharges and
        genetic screening options have not increased the life expectancy of children with chronic disease. Rural health services delivered
        via telehealth are altering how services are delivered and may indirectly increase life expectancy, but it is not a direct contributing
        factor.

      3. Which is the focus of the Code of Ethics for Registered Nurses?
        a. Collegiality
        b. Dependent role
        c. Evaluation
        d. Accountability
        ANS: D
        The Code of Ethics for Registered Nurses, by the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA), provides the framework and core
        responsibilities for nursing practice. The Code of Ethics focuses on the nurse’s accountability and responsibility to the patient
        (CNA, 2017) and emphasizes the nursing role as an independent professional, one that upholds its own legal liability. Collegiality
        refers to a working relationship with one\u2019s colleagues. Evaluation refers to examination of the effectiveness of interventions in
        relation to expected outcomes.

      4. Which reflects a future goal for perinatal and pediatric nursing?
        a. Limiting interprofessional teams
        b. Maintaining existing power structures
        c. Advocating for an increased number of Caesarean births
        d. Addressing health inequities by engaging in policy analysis and advocacy
        ANS: D
        Addressing health inequities by creating health policy and services that focus on both resources needed for health and access to
        health services is a future goal of perinatal nurses. Nurses should be expanding interprofessional teams rather than limiting their
        existence. Existing power structures and practices need to be disrupted rather than maintained. Advocating for an increased number
        of Caesarean births is not a future goal for perinatal nursing.

      5. What is the most important aspect of trauma-informed care?
        a. Providing counselling to patients who have be traumatized
        b. Minimize the potential for harm and re-traumatization
        c. Asking all patients about previous trauma in their life
        d. To provide a controlling environment for the patient
        ANS: B
        The focus of trauma and violence-informed approaches are to minimize the potential for harm and re-traumatization, and to
        enhance safety, control and resilience for all clients. While patients should be asked about trauma in their life this is not the most
        important point as not all patients will disclose the trauma. It is also important to enhance their own control over the situation and
        not for health care providers to control the situation. Providing counselling may be appropriate for some patients but it is not the
        focus of trauma-informed care.

          b. Indigenous people comprise approximately 2% of the total Canadian population.
          c. The Indigenous population is increasing at a slower rate than non-Indigenous
          populations.
          d. Children 14 years and under comprise approximately one-third of the total
          Indigenous population.
          ANS: D
          Indigenous children aged 14 and under made up one-third of the total Indigenous population. There are approximately 1.7 million
          Indigenous people in Canada and they comprise 4.9% of the total Canadian population.

          a. An outgrowth of telemedicine
          b. Known as evidence-informed practice
          c. Exclusive to maternity nursing practice
          d. At odds with the Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Database
          ANS: B
          Evidence-informed practice (EIP) is the collection, interpretation, and integration of valid, important, and applicable
          patient-reported, nurse-observed, and research-derived information. Evidence-informed practice is practised within all disciplines
          of nursing and is not exclusive to maternity nursing practice. The Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Database is based on
          systematically reviewed research trials and is part of the evidence-informed practice movement. Telemedicine uses communication
          technologies to support health care.
