Question 1 of 5
A primigravida is dilated 5cm just received epidural for pain. She complains of feeling lightheaded within 10 minutes after the
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The incomplete statement suggests a potential medical emergency where the patient's blood pressure may have dropped significantly after the epidural procedure. The drop in blood pressure could be causing the patient to feel lightheaded. In this scenario, the most appropriate course of action would be to promptly address the drop in blood pressure to prevent any potential complications.
Question 2 of 5
A client is warm and asks for a fan to put in the room. The nurse enters the room to assess the mother and infant and finds the infant unwrapped in his crib with the fan blowing on them on high. The nurse instructs the mother that the fan should not be directed at the newborn and the infant should be wrapped in a blanket. The mother asks why?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. Directing a fan towards a newborn can cause heat loss by convection. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of air or water. In this case, the fan blowing cool air directly on the infant can cause heat loss from the baby's body. Newborns have limited ability to regulate their body temperature, so it's important to keep them comfortably warm by using appropriate clothing and blankets rather than exposing them to direct air flow from a fan.
