Question 1 of 5
Patient Hydee asks how she could Distinguish between true and false labor? Which is NOT included among the factors in which the nurse should base her answer from?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The engagement of the fetus refers to the baby's head moving down into the mother's pelvis in preparation for birth. This factor is not typically used to distinguish between true and false labor because it is a sign of progress in labor rather than a defining characteristic of true labor. In contrast, the factors that are commonly used to differentiate between true and false labor include contractions (e.g., regularity, intensity, duration), cervical changes observed through vaginal examination (e.g., effacement and dilation), and monitoring vital signs.
Question 2 of 5
The CI is expected to set the atmosphere by welcoming everyone and by _________.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: In a professional setting like a classroom or a meeting, it is important for the CI (chief instructor) to set the atmosphere by welcoming everyone and discussing the objectives of the ward class. By discussing the objectives, the CI can provide a clear direction for the session and ensure that everyone is on the same page in terms of what needs to be accomplished. This not only helps focus the participants but also creates a sense of purpose and organization, setting a positive tone for the rest of the interaction. Showing a picture of the breast or giving an anecdote about an old man may not be appropriate or relevant in this context. Going ahead with the first part of the lecture without any welcoming or setting the atmosphere may make the participants feel rushed or disconnected from the session's purpose.

Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The aim of pelvic muscle exercises for a patient with urinary incontinence is to strengthen the muscles that control the vagina and urethra. These exercises, known as Kegel exercises, target the pelvic floor muscles that support the pelvic organs and help in controlling urinary function. Strengthening these muscles can help improve bladder control and reduce or eliminate urinary incontinence. Exercises that target the perineal area can also be beneficial in managing urinary incontinence, but the main focus is on strengthening the muscles that control the vagina and urethra.
Question 4 of 5
Immunity that the baby gets from the immune mother through breastfeeding is:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Immunity that the baby gets from the immune mother through breastfeeding is considered passive natural immunity. This is because the baby receives pre-formed antibodies from the mother's breast milk, providing temporary protection until the baby's own immune system is fully developed. This type of immunity is passive since the baby does not produce its antibodies, and it is considered natural because it happens through a natural process of breastfeeding.
Question 5 of 5
Because of the failure to replace the defective electric fan immediately, a fire broke out and it became big enough to burn a major portion of the unit because the fire extinguisher was missing. What lesson can be gained from this?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The lesson that can be gained from this scenario is that every protocol must be followed. In this situation, failure to replace the defective electric fan immediately and having a missing fire extinguisher directly led to the fire escalating and causing significant damage. By ensuring that all safety protocols and procedures are followed promptly and consistently, potential hazards and risks can be mitigated or prevented. It is crucial for employees to understand the importance of adhering to established protocols in order to maintain a safe working environment and prevent accidents or emergencies.
