Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Rh immune globulin (RhoGAM) is administered to Rh-negative individuals who have given birth to Rh-positive infants to prevent Rh sensitization. When an Rh-negative individual gives birth to an Rh-positive infant, there is a risk of the mother developing antibodies against the Rh-positive blood cells, which can lead to hemolytic disease of the newborn in subsequent pregnancies. Rh immune globulin is given to prevent this sensitization in Rh-negative individuals who deliver Rh-positive infants.
Question 9 of 9
The nurse is assessing a postpartum client's fundus. Where should the nurse expect to find the fundus 24 hours after delivery?
Correct Answer: A

Assessing the fundal height helps monitor the progress of uterine involution and can identify any potential complications like postpartum hemorrhage.
