A+ GRADE-Newborn Adaptation and Assessment in
Nursing With Guaranteed Results. 2024/2025
1 . Which factors stimulate the initiation of respirations after birth? - Thermal
- Sensory
- Chemical
- Mechanical
2. Match the fetal cardiac shunts with the description of their adaptation after
birth.: Umbilical cord clamping leads to functional closure.
- Ductus venosus
Increased pulmonary blood flow promotes
closure. - Foramen ovale
Increased oxygen levels lead to functional
closure. - Ductus arteriosus
3. Match the method of neonatal heat loss with its description.: Heat loss
from moisture leaving skin - Evaporation
Heat loss from direct contact with cool
surfaces - Conduction
Heat loss from body surface exposure to cooler
ambient air - Convection
Heat loss to a cooler surface nearby but not in direct
contact - Radiation
4. Which characteristic of newborns necessitates the administration of
vitamin K at birth? Absence of intestinal flora
Intestinal flora needed to produce vitamin K are absent in the first week after
birth. Vitamin K is administered at birth to activate clotting factors and
decrease the risk for hemorrhagic disease.
5. Which signs are included in the Apgar assessment completed at 1 and 5
minutes after birth? - Heart rate - Respiratory effort
- Muscle tone
- Response to catheter
- Color
