This newborn injection prevents vitamin K deficiency bleeding.

Vitamin K

100

This nutrient helps prevent neural tube defects such as spina bifida.

Folic Acid

100

This maternal Rh status should immediately make the nurse think about RhoGam.

Rh-negative
100

Complete cervical dilation occurs at this measurement

10cm

100

This fetal assessment is a major initial priority when a client arrives in labor.

fetal heart assessment

200

This vaccine provides active immunity against a virus that can lead to chronic liver disease.

What is the Hepatitis B vaccine

Routine antepartum RhoGam prophylaxis is generally given around this week of pregnancy.

28 weeks

200

This stage of labor begins with complete dilation and ends with birth of the baby.

second stage of labor

200

Accelerations and moderate variability are generally considered this type of fetal finding.

reassuring finding

300

This newborn medication is placed in the eyes to prevent neonatal ophthalmia, especially gonococcal infection.

What is ophthalmic erythromycin

300

This maternal position improves uteroplacental circulation by reducing vena cava compression.

left lateral or left side-lying position

300

RhoGam primarily prevents this maternal immune response.

Rh sensitization or Rh alloimmunization

300

Placental separation and delivery occur during this stage of labor

the third stage

300

Late decelerations are classically associated with this problem.

This vitamin supplementation helps prevent rickets and poor bone mineralization.

What is Vitamin D

400

G4 T2 P1 A1 L3 means the client has had this many total pregnancies.

Placental abruption may create this event, exposing an Rh-negative mother to Rh-positive fetal red blood cells.

fetomaternal hemorrhage

400

A client with severe back labor may benefit from firm pressure applied to this area.

sacrum, using sacral counterpressure

400

Dark-red bleeding, severe abdominal or back pain, and a rigid, tender uterus suggest this obstetric emergency.

Rho(D) immune globulin, or RhoGAM

500

A laboring client remains at 5 cm with irregular contractions and no further dilation. According to the worksheet's exam framing, this complication should be suspected.

labor dystocia or failure to progress

500

This pregnancy emergency can cause massive internal hemorrhage and rapidly lead to hypovolemic shock.
