A nurse is assessing a newborn 1 hour after birth.
The nurse recognizes that which of the following respiratory rates is within the expected reference range for a newborn?

Choice A rationale

A recent history of stressful, positive life events is not a primary risk factor for depression. While any significant life change can trigger stress and potentially contribute to depression, it is typically negative or traumatic events that are most strongly associated with an increased risk of depression.

Choice B rationale

Being male and over the age of 80 is a primary risk factor for depression. Older adults, particularly those with chronic medical conditions, are at an increased risk of depression. Additionally, while women are more likely than men to experience depression at younger ages, the gender gap narrows with age.

Choice C rationale

Being an only child is not a primary risk factor for depression. While family history can play a role in depression risk, it is typically a history of depression in first-degree relatives that is most strongly associated with an increased risk.

Choice D rationale

Having elevated levels of serotonin is not a primary risk factor for depression. In fact, it is typically low levels of serotonin that are associated with an increased risk of depression. Informed consent Explore

Choice A rationale

Hematuria, or blood in the urine, is not typically a symptom of postpartum endometritis.

Pelvic pain is a common symptom of postpartum endometritis. It is often one of the first symptoms to appear, along with lower abdominal pain and uterine tenderness.

Choice C rationale

While a moderate amount of dark red lochia with a bloody odor can be a normal part of the postpartum period, it is not specifically indicative of endometritis.

Choice D rationale

Localized area of breast tenderness is not typically a symptom of postpartum endometritis.
