a breastfeeding woman asks the nurse about a reliable and safe method of birth control she should use during the postpartum period. The best recommendation for a safe yet effective method during the first 6 weeks after birth is:

barrier method using a combination of a condom and spermicide foam

cephalophematoma

bleeding between the cranial bone and the periosteum in periosteal space. does not cross suture lines

habituation

decreasing responsiveness with repeated stimulation. As infants gain familiarity with repeated exposure to a visual stimulus, their interest wanes and they look away sooner.

a woman has determined that bottle feeding is the best feeding method for her. Instructions that the woman should receive regarding this feeding method include:

expect a 2 week old newborn to drink approximately 90-150 mL of formula at each feeding

given as a single antigen

given for kids 6 weeks to 6 years, whole cell inactivated, current form is acellular inactivated, fewer side effects.

given to children under 7 years of age

DT

given to children under 7 years of age who can't take pertussis

the nurse evaluates the laboratory test results of a newborn who is 4 hours old. Which results require notification of the pediatrician

glucose 34 mg/dL calcium 7 mg/dL

jitteriness

LGA

large for gestational age, above normal, >90%, (gestational diabetes)

increased metabolic rate

leads to increased use of glucose and production of surfactant. this can lead to hypoglycemia and respiratory distress

vasoconstriction

leads to pale, mottled skin and shut down of pulmonary vessels, which leads to fetal circulation patterns

breast fed babies

loose BM golden yellow color non-irritating no odor

non-shivering thermogenesis

metabolism of brown fat, leads to increased production of free fatty acids, which leads to metabolic acidosis and jaundice

a physician has ordered that a newborn receive a hepatitis B vaccine prior to discharge. In fulfilling this order the nurse should:

obtain parental consent prior to administering the vaccine, inform the parents that the next vaccine in the series needs to be given at 1-2 months, administer the injection into the vastus lateralis muscle

convection

occurs when heat is transferred to air that surrounded the nb

conduction

occurs when the nb comes in direct contact with objects that are cooler than their skin

radiation

occurs when there is a transfer of heat to cooler objects that are not in direct contact with the infant

evaporation

occurs when wet surfaces are exposed to air

As part of thorough assessment, the newborn should be checked for hip dislocation and dysplasia. Which of the following techniques would be used? a. Check for syndactyly bilaterally b. Stepping or walking reflex c. Magnet reflex d. Ortolani's maneuver

ortolani maneuver

molding

overriding sutures, resolves quickly

grasp

place finger in palm of hand or at base of toes; infant's fingers curl around examiner's fingers or toes curl downward

magnet

place infant in a supine position and apply pressure to soles of the feet with fingers when the lower limbs are semi-flexed, legs extend against examiners pressure

a newborn male is estimated to be at 40 weeks gestation following an assessment using the new ballad scale. New Ballard scale findings consistent with this newborn's full term status are

used for primary immunity, gives antitoxins for 10 years or more

tetanus immunoglobulin

used for wound management; passive immunity

a new breastfeeding mother asks the nurse how to prevent nipple soreness. The nurse tells this woman that the key to preventing sore nipples is:

at a home visit 1 week after birth, a nurse is evaluating a woman's breastfeeding technique. Which actions indicate that the woman needs further instruction regarding breastfeeding to ensure success?

waits to feed her baby until he wakes up and begins to cry, squeezes her nipple and areola between her thumb and forefinger and then inserts her nipple into the baby's mouth, positions her baby, supporting back and shoulders securely, and then brings her breast toward the baby, putting the nipple in the baby's mouth
