Question 1 of 5
Which factor is a major barrier to health care for adolescent mothers?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The major barrier to health care for adolescent mothers is seeing a different nurse and/or health care provider at every visit. Continuity of care is crucial for adolescent mothers as they need consistent support and guidance throughout their pregnancy and postpartum period. When they see different healthcare providers at each visit, it can lead to fragmented care, lack of trust in the healthcare system, and hinder the establishment of a therapeutic relationship. This barrier can impact the quality of care received and ultimately affect the health outcomes for both the adolescent mother and her baby.

Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a condition where high blood sugar levels develop during pregnancy in women who didn't have diabetes before pregnancy. One of the primary risks associated with GDM is fetal overgrowth, also known as macrosomia. This means the baby is larger than normal. Macrosomia can lead to complications during delivery, such as shoulder dystocia (when the baby's shoulders get stuck during delivery) and an increased risk of birth injuries for both the baby and the mother. It can also increase the likelihood of a cesarean section delivery. Therefore, preventing macrosomia is an important goal in managing GDM to ensure the safety and well-being of both the mother and the baby.
