A group of females who are pregnant
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching about neural tube defects to a group of females who are pregnant. Which of the following disease processes should the nurse include as an example of a neural tube defect?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Spina bifida. Neural tube defects occur during early pregnancy when the neural tube fails to close properly. Spina bifida is a specific type of neural tube defect where the spinal cord and spine do not develop properly. The other choices are not neural tube defects. Cerebral palsy is a neurological disorder, muscular dystrophy is a genetic disorder affecting muscle strength, and hydrocephalus is a condition where there is an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain.
Therefore, only Spina bifida fits the criteria of a neural tube defect in this context.
