Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who experienced a vaginal delivery 12 hr ago. When palpating the client's abdomen, at which of the following positions should the nurse expect to find the uterine fundus?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: After a vaginal delivery, the uterus typically undergoes involution, which is the process of the uterus returning to its pre-pregnancy size and position. At 12 hours postpartum, the uterine fundus should be palpated approximately one fingerbreadth above the symphysis pubis. This position indicates proper contraction of the uterus and helps prevent postpartum hemorrhage. As time progresses, the uterine fundus will gradually descend back into the pelvis.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client with preeclampsia. What is the most important assessment?

Question 5 of 5
The nurse is discussing contraceptive options with a patient who states they want to become pregnant in 1 year. Which contraception choice would be appropriate for them? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Fertility awareness methods involve tracking a woman's menstrual cycle to identify the fertile window when pregnancy is most likely to occur. This method does not interfere with future fertility and can be used by individuals who plan to become pregnant in the near future. Since the patient expressed a desire to conceive in one year, fertility awareness methods would be the most appropriate contraceptive option for them.
