The client has been in labor for 21 hours. Induction was started 16 hours ago, and she is now dilated 5 cm. She has made little progress, and there has been no fetal descent. The HCP identifies cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD). The nurse should prepare the client for which mode of delivery?
- A. Traditional vaginal delivery
- B. Forceps-assisted delivery
- C. Vacuum-assisted delivery
- D. Cesarean section delivery
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A fetus diagnosed with CPD is unable to be delivered vaginally and requires a cesarean section birth. A vaginal delivery is contraindicated once CPD has been identified due to the risk of fetal and maternal trauma. Forceps delivery is contraindicated once CPD has been identified due to the risk of fetal and maternal trauma. Vacuum delivery is contraindicated once CPD has been identified due to the risk of fetal and maternal trauma.
Which laboratory test should the nurse monitor for a client with preeclampsia?
- A. Platelet count
- B. Blood glucose
- C. Cholesterol levels
- D. Thyroid function
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Monitoring platelet count is critical in preeclampsia, as low platelets may indicate severe disease or HELLP syndrome.
The nurse educates the breastfeeding client diagnosed with mastitis. The nurse evaluates that the client has an adequate understanding of how to prevent mastitis in the future when the client makes which statements? Select all that apply.
- A. “Incorrect latch of my baby can lead to mastitis.”
- B. “I should perform hand hygiene before I breastfeed.”
- C. “I should rinse my baby’s mouth before I let her latch.”
- D. “A tight underwire bra has support that prevents mastitis.”
- E. “I should allow my nipples to air-dry after breastfeeding.”
Correct Answer: A,B,E
Rationale: Incorrect latch can cause nipple tissue to blister, crack, and bleed. These breaks in the tissue may serve as an entry point for pathogens. Hand hygiene prior to breastfeeding reduces the number of pathogens available for invasion. While the infant’s nose and throat are sources of pathogenic organisms that might cause mastitis, washing the infant’s mouth would be difficult and would not provide adequate protection for the mother. Wearing a tight bra, especially with an underwire, may restrict milk ducts, providing milk stasis and a medium for pathogenic growth. Allowing breasts to air-dry helps to reduce skin breakdown that might be caused by a moist, wet environment.
Which instruction should the nurse provide about newborn feeding?
- A. Feed on a strict schedule
- B. Breastfeed or formula-feed on demand

- D. Offer water between feedings

The nurse is assessing pregnant clients. During which time frames should the nurse expect clients to report frequent urination throughout the night? Select all that apply.
- A. Before the first missed menstrual period
- B. During the first trimester
- C. During the second trimester
- D. During the third trimester
- E. One week following delivery
Correct Answer: B,D
Rationale: Urinary frequency is most likely to occur in the first and third trimesters. First-trimester urinary frequency occurs as the uterus enlarges in the pelvis and begins to put pressure on the bladder. In the third trimester, urinary frequency returns due to the increased size of the fetus and uterus placing pressure on the bladder. Women do not typically experience urinary changes before the first missed menstrual period. During the second trimester, the uterus moves into the abdominal cavity, putting less pressure on the bladder. Nocturnal frequency occurring a week after delivery may be a sign of a UTI.
