MULTIPLE CHOICE
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.
CORRECT ANSWER: 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?
a. Situation, baseline assessment, response
b. Situation, background, assessment, recommendation
c. Subjective background, assessment, recommendation
d. Situation, background, anticipated recommendation
CORRECT ANSWER: 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.
CORRECT ANSWER: 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.
CORRECT ANSWER: 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,
