The purpose of the Bishop's score is to:

Choice A reason:

FAS is caused by alcohol, and NAS is caused by opioids. This is the correct answer because FAS stands for fetal alcohol syndrome, which is a group of physical and mental defects that can occur in a baby when a woman drinks alcohol during pregnancy. NAS stands for neonatal abstinence syndrome, which is a group of problems that can happen when a baby is exposed to opioid drugs for a length of time while in their mother's womb.

Choice B reason:

FAS and NAS are both incurable. This is incorrect because FAS and NAS have different outcomes. FAS is incurable because the effects of alcohol on the developing brain and body are permanent. NAS, however, can be treated with medication and supportive care to help the baby cope with withdrawal symptoms and prevent complications.

Choice C reason:

FAS and NAS are both curable. This is incorrect because FAS is not curable, as explained above. NAS can be treated, but not cured, because some babies may have long-term problems such as developmental delays, behavioral issues, or learning difficulties.

Choice D reason:

FAS is caused by analgesics and NAS is caused by NSAIDs. This is incorrect because FAS is caused by alcohol, not analgesics, which are painkillers. NAS is caused by opioids, not NSAIDs, which are anti-inflammatory drugs. Analgesics and NSAIDs do not cause the same type of damage to the fetus or the newborn as alcohol and opioids do.

Choice A reason:

This is incorrect because TTN usually resolves within 24 to 72 hours of birth and does not require a long stay in the NICU.

Choice B reason:

This is correct because TTN is more common in babies born by cesarean section without labor, as they do not have the hormonal changes that help clear the fetal lung fluid.

Choice C reason:

This is incorrect because breastfeeding is not contraindicated in babies with TTN, unless they have severe respiratory distress or need continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) support.

Choice D reason:

This is incorrect because TTN does not cause chronic lung disease or require oxygen therapy at home. Most babies with TTN only need supplemental oxygen for a few days until their breathing improves.
