  1. When integrating the principles of family-centered care into the birthing process,
    the nurse would base care upon which belief?
    A. Birth is viewed as a medical event.
    B. Families are unable to make informed choices due to stress.
    C. Birth results in changes in relationships.
    D. Families require little information to make appropriate decisions for care.
    Answer: C
    Rationale: Family-centered care is based on the following principles: Birth affects
    the entire family, and relationships will change; birth is viewed as a normal, healthy
    event in the life of the family; and families are capable of making decisions about
    their own care if given adequate information and professional support.

  2. The nurse is working with a group of community health members to develop a
    plan to address the special health needs of women. The group would design
    educational programs to address which priority condition?
    A. Smoking
    B. Heart disease
    C. Diabetes
    D. Cancer
    Answer: B
    Rationale: The group needs to address cardiovascular disease, the number one
    cause of death in women regardless of racial or ethnic group. Smoking is related to
    heart disease and the development of cancer. However, heart disease and cancer
    can occur in any woman regardless of her smoking history. Cancer is the second
    leading cause of death, with women having a one in three lifetime risk of
    developing cancer. Diabetes is another important health condition that can affect
    women. However, it is not the major health problem that heart disease is.

    1. A nurse is conducting an orientation program for a group of newly hired nurses.
      As part of the program, the nurse is reviewing the issue of informed consent. The
      nurse determines that the teaching was effective when the group identifies which
      situation as a violation of informed consent?
      A. Performing a procedure on a 15-year-old without parental consent
      B. Serving as a witness to the signature process on an operative permit
      C. Asking whether the client understands what she is signing following receiving
      education
      D. Getting verbal consent over the phone for an emergency procedure from the
      spouse of a unconscious woman
      Answer: A
      Rationale: In most states, only clients over the age of 18 can legally provide
      consent for health care. Serving as a witness to the signature process, asking
      whether the client understands what she is signing, and getting verbal consent over
      the phone for emergency procedures are all key to informed consent and are not
      violations.

    2. A pregnant woman is to undergo an invasive procedure to evaluate the status of
      her fetus. To ensure informed consent, which action would be the priority
      responsibility of the nurse providing care to this woman?
      A. Asking relevant questions to determine the client’s understanding
      B. Providing a detailed description of the risks and benefits of the procedure
      C. Explaining the exact steps that will occur during the procedure
      D. Offering suggestions for alternative options for treatment
      Answer: A
      Rationale: The nurse’s responsibilities related to informed consent include: Ensuring
      the consent form is completed with signatures from the client; serving as a witness
      to the signature process; and determining whether the client understands what she
      is signing by asking her pertinent questions. The physician, advanced practice
      nurse, or midwife is responsible for informing the client about the procedure and
      obtaining consent by providing a detailed description of the procedure or treatment,
      its potential risks and benefits, and alternative methods available.

      1. A 9-month-old with glaucoma requires surgery. The infant’s parents are
        divorced. To obtain informed consent, which action would be most appropriate?
        A. Contacting the father for informed consent
        B. Obtaining informed consent from the mother
        C. Seeking a court ruling on the course of care
        D. Determining sole or joint custody by the parents
        Answer: D
        Rationale: The most appropriate action would be to determine legal custody by
        court decree. If the parents have joint custody, then either parent may give
        consent, but it is always best to have consent given by both parents. The parent
        with only physical custody may give consent for emergency care. The last resort is
        getting a court ruling; usually this is not necessary unless the parents disagree
        about the care of the child.

      2. Which statement made by a nursing student would best indicate that her
        education on family-centered care was fully understood?
        A. “Childbirth affects the entire family, and relationships will change.”
        B. “Families are usually not capable of making health care decisions for themselves,
        especially in stressful situations.”
        C. “Mothers are the only family member affected by childbirth.”
        D. “Since childbirth is a medical procedure, it may affect everyone.”
        Answer: A
        Rationale: Childbirth affects the entire family, and relationships will change.
        Childbirth is viewed as a normal life event, not a medical procedure. Families are
        very capable of making health care decisions about their own care with proper
        information and support.

      3. Which aspect of client wellness has not been a focus of health during the 21st
        century ?

        A. Disease prevention
        B. Health promotion
        C. Wellness
        D. Analysis of morbidity and mortality
        Answer: D
        Rationale: The focus on health has shifted to disease prevention, health promotion,
        and wellness. In the last century, much of the focus was on analyzing morbidity
        and mortality rates.

        1. A nurse is planning a continuum of care for a client during pregnancy, labor, and
          childbirth. What is the most important factor in enhancing the birthing experience?
          A. Adhering to strict specific routines
          B. Involving a pediatric physician
          C. Educating the client about the importance of a support person
          D. Assigning several nurses as a support team
          Answer: C
          Rationale: Educating the client about the importance of a support person during
          labor and delivery has been shown to improve and enhance the birthing experience.

        2. The nurse is administering a number of therapeutic interventions for neonates,
          infants, and children on the pediatric unit. Which intervention contributes to an
          increase in chronic illness seen in early childhood?
          A. Administering antibiotics to prevent lethal infections
          B. Vaccinating children to prevent childhood diseases
          C. Using mechanical ventilation for premature infants
          D. Using corticosteroids as a treatment for asthma
          Answer: C
          Rationale: Using mechanical ventilation and medications to foster lung development
          in premature infants increases their survival rate. Yet the infants who survive are
          often faced with myriad chronic illnesses. Administering antibiotics to prevent lethal
