Maternal Newborn Proctored ATI Questions
Question 1 of 5
A client is experiencing uterine atony after delivery. What is the nurse's first action?

Rationale: Fundal massage stimulates uterine contraction and is the initial response to uterine atony to prevent hemorrhage.
Question 2 of 5
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.

The nurse is caring for a client pregnant with twins. Which statement indicates that the client needs additional information?
