Question 1 of 5

Which diagnostic test is commonly used to evaluate the structure and patency of the uterus and fallopian tubes?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Hysterosalpingography. This test involves injecting a contrast dye into the uterus and fallopian tubes to evaluate their structure and patency. It helps diagnose issues like blockages or abnormalities. Semen analysis (A) is used to evaluate male fertility, not the uterus or fallopian tubes. Endometrial biopsy (B) is used to evaluate the uterine lining, not the structure of the uterus or fallopian tubes. Testicular biopsy (D) is used to assess male reproductive health, not female reproductive structures. Therefore, C is the correct choice for evaluating the structure and patency of the uterus and fallopian tubes.

Question 2 of 5

A woman telephones the prenatal clinic and reports that her water just broke. Which suggestion by the nurse would be most appropriate?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: When a woman's water breaks, there is an increased risk of infection and cord prolapse, making it important for the woman to seek evaluation at the clinic or emergency department. Waiting for contractions to start, drinking water and lying down, and waiting to come in only when feeling the urge to push are not appropriate responses in this situation.

Question 3 of 5

A nurse is describing how the fetus moves through the birth canal. Which component would the nurse identify as being most important in allowing the fetal head to move through the pelvis?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Sutures are important because they allow the cranial bones to overlap in order for the head to adjust in shape when pressure is exerted on it. Fontanelles are the intersections formed by the sutures. The frontal bones and biparietal diameter are not as crucial in allowing the fetal head to move through the pelvis.
