Explanation
(A) Assessing the quantity of amniotic fluid is important as an indication of maternal fetal well-being, but it does not take priority over assessment of FHR. (B) Greenish-brown discoloration of amniotic fluid indicates presence of meconium. Foul odor may indicate presence of infection. Both of these are important assessment data, but they do not take priority over possible lifethreatening compression of the umbilical cord. (C) Documentation is important, but it does not take priority over the possible life-threatening compression of the umbilical cord. (D) If changes in the FHR are noted, the nurse should check for umbilical cord prolapse. This intervention has priority over the other actions. The danger of a prolapsed cord is increased once membranes have ruptured, especially if the presenting part of the fetus does not fit firmly against the cervix.

Explanation
(A) This meal choice provides more of the vitamins A, D, and K than of vitamin C.
(B) This meal choice provides more of the vitamins A, B12, and D than of vitamin C.
(C) This meal choice provides more of the vitamins A, B1 (thiamine), niacin, and microminerals than of vitamin C.
(D) This meal choice provides foods rich in vitamin C, which are essential in tissue healing.

(A) The ischial spines are located on both sides of the midpelvis. These spines mark the
diameter of the narrowest part of the pelvis that the fetus will encounter. They are not sharp protrusions that will harm the fetus. Station refers to the relationship between the ischial spines in the pelvis and the fetus. The ischial spines are designated at 0 station. If the presenting part of the fetus is located above the ischial spines, a negative number is assigned, noting the number of centimeters above the ischial spines. Therefore, 1 centimeter below the ischial spines is designated as +1 station. (B) See explanation in A.
One centimeter above the ischial spines is designated as +1 station. (C) The pelvic inlet is the first part of the pelvis that the fetus enters in routine delivery. The midpelvis is the second part of the pelvis to be entered by the fetus. The ischial spines are located on both sides of the midpelvis. (D) The pelvic outlet is the last part of the pelvis that the fetus will enter. When the fetus reaches this part of the pelvis, birth is near.

(A) If cervical spine injury is suspected, the airway should be maintained using the jaw thrust method that also protects the cervical spine. (B) Primary intervention is protection of the airway and adequate ventilation. (C, D) All other interventions are secondary to adequate ventilation.

(A) The client has insight into the severity of his alcohol addiction and has chosen one of the most effective treatment strategies to support him-Alcoholics Anonymous. (B) The client is still using denial and is not dealing with his alcohol addiction. (C) The client is exhibiting denial about his alcohol addiction and projecting blame on his divorce. (D) The client is projecting blame onto his wife for being in the hospital while still denying his alcohol addiction.
