A nurse is planning care immediately following birth for a newborn who has a myelomeningocele that is leaking cerebrospinal fluid.
Which of the following actions should the nurse include in the plan of care?

Choice A rationale
The use of an oil-based vaginal lubricant when inserting a diaphragm is not recommended. Oil- based lubricants can damage the material of the diaphragm, reducing its effectiveness as a contraceptive method.
Choice B rationale
Keeping the diaphragm in place for at least 4 hours after intercourse is a standard recommendation. However, it does not address the specific needs of a postpartum woman. After childbirth, the size and shape of a woman’s vagina can change, potentially affecting the fit of the diaphragm.
Choice C rationale

The provider should refit the client for a new diaphragm. After childbirth, the size and shape of a woman’s vagina can change, potentially affecting the fit of the diaphragm. A poorly fitting diaphragm may not provide effective contraception.
Choice D rationale
Storing the diaphragm in sterile water after each use is not a standard recommendation. The diaphragm should be cleaned with mild soap and water, dried, and stored in a cool, dry place.

Choice A rationale
Ensuring the newborn’s diaper is snug is not specific to the Plastibell circumcision technique. It is a general care tip for all newborns.
Choice B rationale
While it’s important to monitor the circumcision site for signs of infection, a dark red tip of the penis is not a specific concern related to the Plastibell circumcision technique.
Choice C rationale
Yellow exudate, which is a normal part of the healing process, will form at the surgical site within 24 hours. This is a normal part of the healing process and should not be mistaken for pus, which would indicate an infection.
Choice D rationale
The Plastibell device is not removed 4 hours after the procedure. Instead, it falls off naturally after about a week.
