Study Notes
Postpartal Woman
- Chills shortly after delivery are a normal finding in a postpartal woman and are related to a nervous response or vasomotor changes.
- A pulse rate of 60 bpm in the morning on the first postdelivery day is a normal finding in a postpartal woman.
- Urinary output of 3000 mL on the second day after delivery is a normal finding in a postpartal woman.
Depression
- In a depressed client, the nurse's response "You've been feeling sad and alone for some time now?" is an appropriate response to acknowledge the client's feelings.
Apgar Scoring
- The primary purpose of the first Apgar scoring of a newborn is to evaluate the infant's vital functions and determine if there is an immediate need for resuscitation.
- Apgar scores assess the current physical condition of the infant and are not related to future environmental adaptation.
Head Injury
- Hematotympanum and otorrhea are associated with basilar skull fracture.
- Basilar skull fractures are fractures of the base of the skull, and blood behind the eardrum or blood or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaking from the ear are indicative of a dural laceration.
Breast Cancer
- A positive family history of breast cancer puts a woman at an increased risk of developing breast cancer.
- Women who have never been pregnant have an increased risk for breast cancer.
Prenatal Checkup
- A weight gain of 10 lb in 2 months is a normal finding in a pregnant woman.
Care of a Depressed, Suicidal Client
- A long-term goal for the nurse in planning care for a depressed, suicidal client is to assist the client to develop more effective coping mechanisms.
Myocardial Infarction (MI)
- An increase in heart rate (100 bpm) is detrimental to the client with a myocardial infarction (MI) because it decreases coronary artery perfusion due to decreased diastolic filling time, which increases ischemic damage to the myocardium.
Hepatitis C
- Universal precautions should be used when obtaining blood samples from a client with hepatitis C.
