Question 1 of 5

A multiparous client delivers dizygotic twins at 37 weeks' gestation. The twin neonates require additional hospitalization after the client is discharged. In planning the family's care, an appropriate goal for the nurse to formulate is that, while the twins are hospitalized, the parents will do which of the following?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Parental participation in twin care during hospitalization promotes bonding, confidence, and skill development. Discussing coping, 24-hour observation, or identifying complications are less immediate or unrealistic.

Question 2 of 5

Which of the following statements about a fetal biophysical profile would be incorporated into the teaching plan for a primigravid client with insulin-dependent diabetes?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Biophysical profiles are noninvasive and use real-time ultrasound.

Question 3 of 5

A primiparous client has just delivered a healthy male infant. The client and her husband are Muslim and the husband begins chanting a song in Arabic while holding the neonate. The nurse interprets the father's actions as indicative of which of the following?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The chanting is likely the Adhan, a Muslim ritual where the call to prayer is recited to the newborn, similar to a baptismal rite.

Question 4 of 5

A nurse is teaching a client about the fertility awareness method. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Tracking basal body temperature and cervical mucus daily is essential for the fertility awareness method to identify fertile days. Intercourse is avoided only during fertile periods, the method is less reliable with irregular periods, and pregnancy tests do not monitor ovulation.

Question 5 of 5

A neonate born by cesarean delivery at 42 weeks' gestation, weighing 4.1 kg (9 lb, 1 oz), with Apgar scores of 8 at 1 minute and 9 at 5 minutes after birth, develops an increased respiratory rate and tremors of the hands and feet 2 hours postpartum. Which of the following nursing diagnoses would be the priority?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Tremors and increased respiratory rate suggest hypoglycemia due to depleted glycogen stores, a common issue in post-term neonates.
