What causes congenital hip dysplasia?

Choice A reason:

Attachment phase is not one of Rubin's phases of role attachment. Rubin's theory of maternal role adaptation describes three stages that the mother goes through during the postpartum period: taking in, taking hold and letting go.

Choice B reason:

Letting go phase is the last stage of Rubin's theory of role attachment. It occurs when the mother accepts her new role and gives up her old roles. She also comes to terms with the reality of the birthing experience and the characteristics of her baby.

Choice C reason:

Taking hold phase is the second stage of Rubin's theory of role attachment. It occurs when the mother becomes interested in caring for the infant and learning about her baby and herself. She may be critical about her care-giving abilities and need positive reinforcement.

Choice D reason:

Taking in phase is the first stage of Rubin's theory of role attachment. It occurs right after the birth of the child, when the mother is passive and focused on her own needs, especially sleeping and eating. She may have limited interactions with her infant and prefer to talk about her experiences during labor, birth, and pregnancy. This matches the description of the new mother in the question, so this is the correct answer.

Choice A reason:

Uterine atony is the failure of the uterus to contract and retract after delivery, which can lead to excessive bleeding and hemorrhage. It is the most common cause of postpartum hemorrhage, accounting for up to 80 percent of cases. Risk factors for uterine atony include large or multiple babies, prolonged or rapid labor, overdistended uterus, use of oxytocin or magnesium sulfate during labor, and previous history of uterine atony.

Choice B reason:

Puerperal infection is an infection of the reproductive tract that occurs within six weeks after delivery. It can affect the uterus (endometritis), the bladder (cystitis), the kidneys (pyelonephritis), the breast (mastitis), or the wound (cesarean section or episiotomy).

Symptoms include fever, chills, malaise, foul-smelling lochia, pelvic pain, and wound redness or drainage. Risk factors for puerperal infection include cesarean delivery, prolonged rupture of membranes, prolonged labor, multiple vaginal examinations, retained placental fragments, and poor hygiene.

Choice C reason:

Retained placental fragments are pieces of the placenta that remain in the uterus after delivery. They can cause postpartum hemorrhage, infection, or delayed involution of the uterus. Symptoms include heavy or prolonged bleeding, fever, abdominal pain, and an enlarged uterus. Risk factors for retained placental fragments include placenta previa, placenta accrete, manual removal of the placenta, and incomplete examination of the placenta after delivery.

Choice D reason:

Thrombophlebitis is the inflammation and clotting of a vein, usually in the legs or pelvis. It can cause pain, swelling, redness, and warmth in the affected area. It can also lead to pulmonary embolism if the clot breaks off and travels to the lungs. Risk factors for thrombophlebitis include pregnancy and the postpartum period, cesarean delivery, obesity, smoking, dehydration, immobility, varicose veins, and inherited or acquired clotting disorders.
