Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning to teach a group of clients who are about breastfeeding after returning to work. Which of the following infection should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: “Breast milk can be stored in a deep freezer for 12 months.” This is correct because breast milk can indeed be stored in a deep freezer for up to 12 months, maintaining its quality and safety. Deep freezing helps preserve the nutrients in breast milk for a longer period compared to standard refrigeration.
Choice A is incorrect because thawed breast milk should be used within 24 hours if stored in the refrigerator, not 72 hours.
Choice C is incorrect because breast milk can only be stored at room temperature for up to 4 hours.
Choice D is incorrect because thawed breast milk should not be refrozen; it should be used within 24 hours.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse on postpartum unit caring for four clients. Which of the following clients should receive Rh, (D) Immune globulin to prevent Rh- is immunization?
Correct Answer: A

D) Immune globulin is given to prevent this by blocking the mother's immune response to the Rh-positive cells of the infant. The other choices do not require Rh(
D) Immune globulin because they do not involve the risk of Rh isoimmunization.
Choice B involves an Rh-positive mother who is not at risk of isoimmunization.
Choice C involves an Rh-positive mother with an Rh-positive infant, so there is no incompatibility.
Choice D involves an Rh-negative mother with an Rh-negative infant, so there is no risk of isoimmunization.
Question 3 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client who is at 41 weeks of gestation about a non-stress test. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: This test will determine the adequacy of placental perfusion. A non-stress test is used to assess fetal well-being by monitoring the fetal heart rate in response to fetal movement. The test helps determine if the placenta is providing enough oxygen to the fetus. Adequate placental perfusion is crucial for the well-being of the fetus. Option A is incorrect because a non-stress test does not confirm fetal lung maturity. Option C is incorrect because a non-stress test does not detect fetal infection. Option D is incorrect because a non-stress test does not predict maternal readiness for labor.
