Monitoring Baby During Labour Questions
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a postpartum person who is breastfeeding. What is the most appropriate intervention to relieve nipple pain?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: apply lanolin cream. Lanolin cream helps soothe and moisturize nipples, relieving pain. It is safe for breastfeeding and does not need to be removed before nursing. Choice B is incorrect because ensuring a proper latch helps prevent nipple pain but does not directly alleviate it. Choices C and D are not appropriate interventions for nipple pain in breastfeeding individuals as antibiotics and analgesics can have negative effects on the infant through breast milk.
Question 2 of 5
A nurse is assisting a postpartum person with breastfeeding. What is the most important factor for successful breastfeeding?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: proper latch. A proper latch is crucial for successful breastfeeding as it ensures the baby is effectively extracting milk from the breast, preventing nipple soreness and ensuring an adequate milk supply. Without a proper latch, the baby may not receive enough milk, leading to issues such as poor weight gain and frustration for both the baby and the person breastfeeding. Frequent breastfeeding (choice A) is important, but without a proper latch, it may not be effective. Positioning (choice C) is also important, but proper latch takes precedence. Administering oxytocin (choice D) is not necessary for successful breastfeeding and may have side effects.
