ATI Maternal-Newborn 2019 Exam 2 Questions

Extract:

A nurse in a newborn nursery is receiving change-of-shift report for four newborns.


Question 1 of 5

Which of the following newborns should the nurse assess first?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: New onset tachypnea (respiratory rate >60/min) in a 10-hour-old newborn suggests respiratory distress or serious conditions like sepsis, requiring immediate assessment. Feeding issues, delayed meconium, and blood-tinged discharge are less urgent.

Extract:

A nurse is providing teaching to a client who is 2 days postpartum and wants to continue using her diaphragm for contraception.


Question 2 of 5

Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: A postpartum client needs a diaphragm refit due to vaginal changes after delivery to ensure effectiveness. Gentle soap is correct but not the priority, the diaphragm should stay in for 6 hours, and oil-based lubricants damage it.

Extract:

A nurse is performing an assessment of a newborn's Babinski reflex.


Question 3 of 5

Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The Babinski reflex in newborns shows eversion (fanning) of the great toe with stroking the sole, a normal finding. Forearm flexion, toe curling, or leg extension are not associated with this reflex.

Extract:

A nurse is assessing a newborn whose mother had a primary cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection during pregnancy. The newborn acquired CMV transplacentally.


Question 4 of 5

Which of the following findings should the nurse expect the newborn to exhibit?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Hearing loss is a common finding in newborns with congenital CMV acquired transplacentally, affecting many symptomatic infants. Macrosomia, cataracts, and urinary tract infections are not typical manifestations.

Extract:

A nurse manager on the labor and delivery unit is teaching a group of newly licensed nurses about maternal cytomegalovirus.


Question 5 of 5

Which of the following information should the nurse manager include in the teaching?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: CMV transmission can occur via newborn saliva and urine, requiring contact precautions, making this correct to include. Airborne precautions are not needed, acyclovir is not standard for CMV, and genital lesions are typical of herpes, not CMV.
