ATI RN Maternal Newborn 2023 Retake Questions
Extract:
A nurse is providing discharge instructions to a patient following tubal ligation.
Question 1 of 5
Which statement by the patient indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Ovulation will indeed remain the same after a tubal ligation. The procedure blocks or seals the fallopian tubes, preventing egg transport, but the ovaries continue to function normally, producing hormones and releasing eggs. Premenstrual tension persists, menstrual periods aren't affected in length, and hormone replacement isn't required.
Extract:
A nurse is examining the medical record of a client who gave birth vaginally two days ago and is experiencing constipation.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following conditions should the nurse recognize as a contraindication for the use of a suppository?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A third-degree laceration extends to the anal sphincter, making suppository use risky due to potential injury or infection. Other conditions don't contraindicate suppositories.
Extract:
A nurse is admitting a client to the birthing unit who started having contractions an hour ago. The nurse determines the client is 80% effaced and 8 cm dilated.
Question 3 of 5
What condition is the client at risk for?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rapid labor progress (80% effaced, 8 cm dilated in 1 hour) increases postpartum hemorrhage risk due to potential uterine atony. Other conditions aren't relevant at this stage.
Extract:
A nurse is calculating the estimated date of delivery for a patient who reports that the first day of her last menstrual period was August 10.
Question 4 of 5
Using Nägele's Rule, what is the patient's estimated date of delivery?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Using Nägele's Rule: Add 7 days to August 10 (August 17), subtract 3 months (May 17), and add 1 year if crossing years. The correct date is May 17, 2025, assuming the current year aligns with the question context.
Extract:
A nurse in a prenatal clinic is caring for a group of clients.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following clients should the nurse recognize as having a contraindication for a contraction stress test?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A previous classical uterine incision increases rupture risk, contraindicating a contraction stress test. Other conditions don't pose this risk.
