MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. When providing care for a pregnant woman, the nurse should be aware that one of
the most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors is:

a.
Diabetes mellitus. c. Chronic hypertension.
b.
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP). d. Anemia.
ANS: A

The most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors are diabetes and
hypertension associated with pregnancy. Both of these conditions are associated with
maternal obesity. There are no studies that indicate MVP is among the most
frequently reported maternal risk factors. Hypertension associated with pregnancy, not
chronic hypertension, is one of the most frequently reported maternal medical risk
factors. Although anemia is a concern in pregnancy, it is not one of the most
frequently reported maternal medical risk factors in pregnancy.

communication. Which of the following correctly defines this acronym?

a.
Situation, baseline assessment, response
b.
Situation, background, assessment, recommendation
c.
Subjective background, assessment, recommendation
d.
Situation, background, anticipated recommendation
ANS: B

The situation, background, assessment, recommendation (SBAR) technique provides
a specific framework for communication among health care providers. Failure to
communicate is one of the major reasons for errors in health care. The SBAR
technique has the potential to serve as a means to reduce errors.
