A nurse is teaching about car seat safety to the parents of a newborn who was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. Which of the following statements by a parent indicates an understanding of the teaching?

I can use a sleep sack to keep my baby warm in the car seat.

My baby will need a car seat challenge test before discharge.

When my baby is 1 year old, I can turn their car seat facing forward.

The car seat should be positioned in the car at a 45-degree angle.

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is D

Choice A rationale
While a sleep sack can keep a baby warm, it should not be used in a car seat because it can interfere with the harness and affect its effectiveness.
Choice B rationale

A car seat challenge test is usually performed on premature babies or those with medical conditions. It is not routinely required for a newborn delivered at 38 weeks of gestation.
Choice C rationale
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children remain in a rear-facing car seat until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their car safety seat’s manufacturer, which is typically around 2 years of age.
Choice D rationale
The car seat should indeed be positioned at a 45-degree angle. This position helps to keep the baby’s airway open and protects them in the event of a crash.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale
A heart rate of 89/min is within the normal range for adults, and would not typically be a cause for concern.
Choice B rationale
A blood pressure of 120/70 mm Hg is considered normal for adults.
Choice C rationale
Moderate lochia serosa is a normal part of the postpartum period.
Choice D rationale
This is the correct answer. Cool, clammy skin can be a sign of postpartum hemorrhage, a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention.

A. Ovulation will remain the same. B. Premenstrual tension will no longer be present. C. My monthly menstrual period will be shorter. D. Hormone replacements will be needed following this procedure.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale
Ovulation will indeed remain the same after a tubal ligation. The procedure blocks or seals the fallopian tubes, which prevents the egg from reaching the uterus. However, the ovaries continue to release eggs.
Choice B rationale
Tubal ligation does not eliminate premenstrual tension. Hormonal changes that cause symptoms like bloating, mood swings, and breast tenderness will still occur.
Choice C rationale
Tubal ligation does not shorten the duration of menstrual periods. It has no effect on menstruation.
Choice D rationale
Hormone replacements are not needed following a tubal ligation. The ovaries continue to produce hormones as they did before the procedure.
