b b b b b b b b b b
likely resultedfrom the work of which individual?
b b b b b b b
A. Joseph Brennaman b
B. John Bowlby b
C. Marshal Klaus b
D. John Kennell b
Answer: B
b b
Rationale: In 1951, John Bowlby received worldwide attention with his
b b b b b b b b b
study that revealed the negative results of the separation of child and mother because of
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
hospitalization. His work led toa re-evaluation and liberalization of hospital visiting policies for
b b b b b b b b b b b b b
children. Joseph Brennaman suggested that a lack of stimulation for infants contributed to high
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
infant mortality rates at the time. In the 1970s and 1980s, physicians Marshall Klaus and John
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
Kennell carried out importantstudies on the effect of the separation of newborns and parents.
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
They established that early separation may have long-term effects on family relationships and that

mothers. When responding to her questions about the reasons for this, the nurse accurately states

that which is the major reason for the high maternal mortality rate?
b b b b b b b b b b b b
A. Having formal education. b b
B. Being unmarried. b
C. Income.
D. Lack of prenatal care. b b b
Answer: D b
Rationale: Research shows that maternal mortality rate is directly related to lack of prenatal care
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
secondary to lack of access to services or insurance. Income as well as educational level may play a
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b

A. number of deaths in utero of fetuses 500 g or more per 1,000 livebirths
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b

b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
D. death of a live-born child before his or her first birthday.
b b b b b b b b b b
Answer: D b
Rationale: The term infant death refers to the death of a live-born child before he or she reaches
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
age 1 year. It also includes neonatal mortality rate. Neonatal mortality rate is the number of infant
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
deaths during the first 28 days of life for every 1,000 live births. Infant mortality rate is the number
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b

What major development will the instructor emphasize as greatly influencing the practice of
b b b b b b b b b b b b b
maternity care in the United States over the past century?
b b b b b b b b b b
A. technologic advances and the use of forceps by primary care providers b b b b b b b b b b

C. advent of birthing centers and the development of family-centered care
b b b b b b b b b
D. development of pediatric specialty and replacement of midwives as primary birth attendants b b b b b b b b b b b
b Answer: B b
Rationale: The emphasis should be placed on anesthesia and the germ theory. The development of
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
anesthesia allowed women a choice for pain management in birth; the germ theory advanced the
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
progress of general health care and decreased infections in laboring women. Pediatrics as a
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
specialty is an important step forward but is not the greatest development, and midwives are still in

practice. Maternity care continues to evolve, and birthing centers are still under development.

physician?
b
A. Louis Pasteur b
B. Ignaz Philip Semmelweis b b
C. Joseph Lister b
D. Alexander Gordon b
b Answer: C b
Rationale: Joseph Lister was a British surgeon who embraced Louis Pasteur's theory of

microorganisms as the cause of infection. Lister used carbolic acid as an antiseptic during surgery
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b
