Question 1 of 5
Freedom of choice is one of the policies of the Family Planning Program of the Philippines. Which of the following illustrates this principle?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because it directly aligns with the principle of freedom of choice in family planning. Providing couples with adequate information regarding different methods empowers them to make informed decisions based on their preferences and circumstances. This choice respects individual autonomy and allows couples to choose the method that best suits their needs. Incorrect Choices: A: Information dissemination is important but does not necessarily guarantee freedom of choice. B: Supporting research and development is beneficial but does not directly relate to the freedom of choice for couples. D: Encouraging joint responsibility is valuable for promoting communication, but it does not explicitly ensure freedom of choice for individuals.
Question 2 of 5
During prenatal consultation, a client asked you if she can have her delivery at home. After history taking and physical examination, you advised her against a home delivery. Which of the following findings disqualifies her for a home delivery?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. The OB score G5P3 means the client has had 5 pregnancies with 3 live births. This indicates a history of multiple pregnancies and deliveries, suggesting a higher risk for complications during labor. This would disqualify her for a home delivery due to the increased potential for obstetric emergencies. Explanation for why the other choices are incorrect: - B: Palmar pallor may indicate anemia but can be managed in a hospital setting. - C: Blood pressure of 130/80 is within normal range and does not necessarily disqualify her for a home delivery. - D: Cephalic presentation means the baby's head is down, which is a favorable position for delivery and does not disqualify her for a home birth.
Question 3 of 5
Which vitamin deficiency in the pregnant woman may cause neural tube defects?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Folic Acid. Folic Acid deficiency during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of neural tube defects in the developing fetus. Folic acid is crucial for proper neural tube formation in early pregnancy. Niacin (A), Riboflavin (B), and Thiamine (D) deficiencies do not directly impact neural tube development. Niacin is important for energy production, riboflavin for cell growth and function, and thiamine for nerve function, but they do not specifically affect neural tube closure like folic acid does.
Question 4 of 5
You are in a client's home to attend to a delivery. Which of the following will you do first?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because as a healthcare provider attending to a delivery, noting the interval, duration, and intensity of labor and contractions is crucial for assessing the progress of labor and ensuring the safety of both the mother and the baby. This information helps in determining if the delivery is progressing normally or if there are any complications that require immediate attention. Setting up a sterile area (choice A) and putting on a clean gown and apron (choice B) are important steps but should come after assessing the labor progress. Cleansing the client's vulva with soap and water (choice C) is not recommended during labor as it can introduce bacteria and increase the risk of infection.
Question 5 of 5
When preparing a primigravida for breastfeeding, which of the following will you do?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because putting the baby to breast stimulates the release of oxytocin, which helps the uterus contract and reduce post-delivery blood loss. This promotes faster recovery for the mother. A: Incorrect - Lactation usually begins within 24-48 hours, not 1 to 3 days after delivery. B: Incorrect - Nipple stretching exercises are not necessary for breastfeeding success and can cause discomfort. C: Incorrect - Excessive washing of nipples can strip away natural oils and cause dryness or irritation, affecting breastfeeding.
