1. The opening up of hospital visiting policies for children and
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


families likely resultedfrom the work of which individual?
g1 g1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1


A. Joseph Brennaman g1


B. John Bowlby g1


C. Marshal Klaus g1


D. John Kennell g1




g1 Answer: B g1




Rationale: In 1951, John Bowlby received worldwide attention with his
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


study that revealed the negative results of the separation of child and mother
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


because of hospitalization. His work led toa re-evaluation and liberalization of hospital
g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


visiting policies for children. Joseph Brennaman suggested that a lack of stimulation
g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1


g1for infants contributed to high infant mortality rates at the time. In the 1970s
g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g 1


g1and 1980s, physicians Marshall Klaus and John Kennell carried out
g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1


importantstudies on the effect of the separation of newborns and parents. They
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1


established that early separation may have long-term effects on family
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1


relationships and that offering the new family an opportunity to be together at
g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g 1


birth and for a significant period after birth may provide benefitsthat last well
g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


into early childhood.

2. An expectant mother states that she read that more black mothers die in childbirth
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


than do white mothers. When responding to her questions about the reasons
g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


for this, the nurse accurately states that which is the major reason for the
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1


high maternal mortality rate?
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


A. Having formal education. g1 g1


B. Being unmarried. g1


C. Income.
D. Lack of prenatal care.g1 g1 g1




Answer: D g1




Rationale: Research shows that maternal mortality rate is directly related to lack of
g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


prenatal care secondary to lack of access to services or insurance. Income as
g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1


well as educational level may play a role in the availability of health care,
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1


g1but they are not directly responsible. Being unmarried has no bearing on infant
g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


mortality.

3. Which statement correctly defines the term "infant death rate"?
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


A. number of deaths in utero of fetuses 500 g or more per 1,000 live births
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


B. number of deaths occurring in the first 28 days of life per 1,000 live births
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


C. number of deaths occurring at birth or in the first 12 months of life per 1,000 live births
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


D. death of a live-born child before his or her first birthday.
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1




Answer: D g1




Rationale: The term infant death refers to the death of a live-born child before
g 1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1


he or she reaches age 1 year. It also includes neonatal mortality rate. Neonatal
g 1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


mortality rate is the number of infant deaths during the first 28 days of life
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1


g1for every 1,000 live births. Infant mortality rate is the number of deaths during the
g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


g1first 12 months of life per 1,000 live births. Question format: Multiple Choice

4. The nursing instructor is preparing to teach a group of students about the history of
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


maternity care. What major development will the instructor emphasize as greatly
g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1


influencing the practice of maternity care in the United States over the past
g1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


century?
g 1


A. technologic advances and the use of forceps by primary care providers
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


B. development of anesthesia and acceptance of the germ theory
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


C. advent of birthing centers and the development of family-centered care
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


D. development of pediatric specialty and replacement of midwives as primary birth
g1 g1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g1 g1 g1




g1 attendants Answer: B g1 g1




Rationale: The emphasis should be placed on anesthesia and the germ theory. The
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


development of anesthesia allowed women a choice for pain management in birth; the
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


germ theory advanced the progress of general health care and decreased infections
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


g1in laboring women. Pediatrics as a specialty is an important step forward but is
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


not the greatest development, and midwives are still in practice. Maternity care
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


continues to evolve, and birthing centers are still under development. Forceps are
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1


not considered an advance in maternity care.

5. When preparing a client for surgery, the nurse explains that the use of an
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


antiseptic during the surgery has greatly improved client survival rates and was
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


started by which physician?
g1 g1 g1 g1


A. Louis Pasteur g1


B. Ignaz Philip Semmelweis
g1 g1


C. Joseph Lister g1


D. Alexander Gordon g1




g1 Answer: C g1




Rationale: Joseph Lister was a British surgeon who embraced Louis Pasteur's
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


theory of microorganisms as the cause of infection. Lister used carbolic acid
g 1 g 1 g1 g 1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


as an antiseptic during surgery and improved the survival rates of his patients.
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


Alexander Gordon proposed the theory of infection. Oliver Wendell Holmes and
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


Ignaz Philip Semmelweis confirmed his theory.

6. A young couple are very excited to learn they are expecting their first
g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


child and question the nurse about which test they need to discover its gender. Which
g 1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


procedure will best provide this information to the couple?
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


A. Ultrasound
B. Amniocentesis
C. Chorionic villus sampling g1 g1


D. HGP

Answer: A g1




Rationale: Ultrasound is a visual method for assessing the fetus in the uterus and will
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


g1provide information about the gender. Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling
g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1 g1


g1provide the entire genetic code of the fetus. HGP refers to the Human Genome
g 1 g1 g1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1 g 1


Project, which can provide information regarding gene mutations and variations.
