The nurse should recognize that the client is at risk for developing which of the following complications?

Anemia

Infection

Late decelerations

Placental insufficiency.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a prenatal test that involves taking a sample of tissue from the placenta to test for chromosomal abnormalities and certain other genetic problems.
As with all types of surgical procedures, infections can happen during or after CVS2.

Choice A is incorrect because anemia is not a known complication of CVS.
Choice C is incorrect because late decelerations are a type of fetal heart rate patern that can occur during labor and are not related to CVS.
Choice D is incorrect because placental insufficiency is a condition where the placenta is unable to provide enough oxygen and nutrients to the fetus and is not a known complication of CVS.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A newborn who is 10 hr old and has onset tachypnea.
Tachypnea means rapid breathing and can be a sign of respiratory distress.
Transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN) is a respiratory disorder usually seen shortly after delivery in babies who are born near or at term.
It is important for the nurse to assess this newborn ﬁrst to determine the cause of the tachypnea and provide appropriate care.

Choice A, a newborn who is 24 hr old and has not had a meconium stool, may
require further assessment but is not as urgent as a newborn with tachypnea.
Choice B, a newborn who has a short frenulum and is having difficulty breastfeeding, may require assistance with feeding but is not as urgent as a newborn with tachypnea.
Choice D, a newborn who is 30 hr old and has blood-tinged discharge in her diaper, may have pseudomenstruation which is normal and not a cause for concern.

A. Give the newborn 1 oz of glucose water every 4 hr. B. Dress the newborn in a thin layer of clothing during therapy. C. Ensure the newborn's eyes are closed beneath the shield. D. Apply a thin layer of lotion to the newborn's skin every 8 hr.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

During phototherapy, one or more lights will be placed above the newborn.
The newborn will be undressed except for a diaper and placed on their back to absorb the most light.
Eye covers will be used to protect their eyes from the light.

Choice A) is not correct because glucose water is not mentioned as necessary during phototherapy.
Choice B) is not correct because the newborn should be undressed except for a
diaper during therapy.
Choice D) is not correct because applying lotion to the newborn’s skin is not mentioned as necessary during phototherapy.
