h h h h h h h
a. abortion law is unclear about a woman’s constitutional rights.
h h h h h h h h
b. the Supreme Court ruled that life begins at conception.
h h h h h h h h
c. a conflict exists between the rights of the woman and the rights of the fetus.

ANS: C h
Elective abortion is an ethical dilemma because two opposing courses of action ar
h h h h h h h h h h h h
e available.The belief that induced abortion is a private choice is in conflict with th
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
e belief that elective pregnancy termination is taking a life. Abortion laws are clear
h h h h h h h h h h h h h
h concerning a woman’s constitutional rights. The Supreme Court has not ruled on

when life begins. Abortion does notrequire third-party consent.

3. Which factor significantly contributed to the shift from home births to hospit
h h h h h h h h h h h
al births inthe early 20th century?
h h h h h h
a. Puerperal sepsis was identified as a risk factor in labor and delivery.
h h h h h h h h h h h
b. Forceps were developed to facilitate difficult births.
h h h h h h
c. The importance of early parental-infant contact was identified.
h h h h h h h
d. Technologic developments became available to physicians.
h h h h h
ANS: D h
Technologic developments were available to physicians, not lay midwives. So in-
h h h h h h h h h h
hospital births increased in order to take advantage of these advancements. Puerpe
h h h h h h h h h h h
ral sepsis has been aknown problem for generations. In the late 19th century, Sem
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
melweis discovered how it couldbe prevented with improved hygienic practices. T
h h h h h h h h h h h
he development of forceps is an example of a technology advance made in the earl
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
y 20th century but is not the only reason birthplaces moved. Unlike home births, ea
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
rly hospital births hindered bonding between parents and their infants.

4. Family-centered maternity care developed in response to h h h h h h
a. demands by physicians for family involvement in childbirth.
h h h h h h h
b. the Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921.

c. parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rath

d. changes in pharmacologic management of labor.
h h h h h
ANS: C h
As research began to identify the benefits of early extended parent-
h h h h h h h h h h
infant contact, parents began to insist that the infant remain with them. This gra
h h h h h h h h h h h h h
dually developed into the practiceof rooming-in and finally to family-
h h h h h h h h h h
centered maternity care. Family- h h h
centered care was a request by parents, not physicians. The Sheppard-

Towner Act of 1921 provided funds for state-
