Question 2 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client who is at 37 weeks of gestation. Which of the following statement by the client requires immediate intervention by the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Seeing spots or experiencing visual disturbances can be a sign of preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy complication characterized by high blood pressure. Preeclampsia can lead to severe complications for both the mother and the baby, so it requires immediate intervention by the nurse. The other statements made by the client are concerning but do not indicate an urgent need for intervention compared to the symptoms of preeclampsia.
Question 3 of 5
An African American woman noticed bruises on a newborn girl's buttocks, and she asks the nurse who spanked the baby? The nurse responds
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Mongolian spots are a common benign skin condition in newborn babies, especially those with darker skin tones, such as African American babies. These spots appear as blue or purple bruises or patches, typically on the lower back and buttocks, and can easily be mistaken for bruises caused by physical harm. It is important for healthcare providers and caregivers to be aware of Mongolian spots to avoid confusion with signs of abuse. In this case, the nurse is likely explaining that the bruises on the newborn girl's buttocks are due to Mongolian spots, not being spanked.
