Question 6 of 9
The nurse assesses a patient for medical eligibility for contraceptive use. What is the meaning of an MEC score of 1?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In the context of medical eligibility for contraceptive use, an MEC (Medical Eligibility Criteria) score of 1 indicates that there are no restrictions for using the particular contraceptive method. A score of 1 suggests that the advantages of using the contraceptive method outweigh any potential risks, making it a safe and recommended choice for the patient. Therefore, a patient with an MEC score of 1 can use the contraceptive method without any concerns regarding health risks or restrictions.
Question 7 of 9
A male infant delivered at 28 weeks gestation weighs 2 pounds, 12 ounces. When performing an assessment, the nurse would probably observe:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A male infant delivered at 28 weeks gestation, as described, would likely have very underdeveloped skin due to the premature birth. The premature skin is often transparent, allowing the prominent blood vessels underneath to be visible, and may also have a reddish hue due to the skin's immaturity. This characteristic appearance is a common finding in premature infants and is a result of their skin being thinner and more fragile than that of full-term infants. The other options, such as a wide, staring eye, an absence of lanugo, and a scrotum with descended testicles, are not specifically associated with premature birth and are not likely to be observed in this scenario.
