Planning Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is informed that a newborn infant whose mother is Rh negative will be admitted to the nursery. When planning care for the infant's arrival, which action should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale:
To further plan for the newborn infant's care, the infant's blood type and direct Coombs' results must be known. Umbilical cord blood is taken at the time of delivery to determine blood type, Rh factor, and antibody titer (direct Coombs' test) of the newborn infant. The nurse should obtain these results from the laboratory. Options 2 and 3 are inappropriate at this time, and additional data are needed to determine whether these actions are needed. Option 4 is incorrect because vitamin K is given to prevent hemorrhagic disease of the newborn infant.
