Answer to Question 1

Rationale 2: Teens rely more on their peers than on adults for emotional support.
Rationale 3: Most teens have had little experience with death, and the fetal loss is often the first time a teen is personally impacted by loss and grief.
Rationale 4: Adolescents tend to mistrust authority figures and might resist their help.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,4,5
Rationale 1: Blood volume increases by 61 with delayed cord clamping.
Rationale 2: Significant prenatal or perinatal bleeding decreases the hematocrit level and causes hypovolemia.
Rationale 3: This does not affect the blood volume, hematocrit, or hemoglobin.
Rationale 4: There is a positive association between gestational age, hematocrit, and hemoglobin concentration.
Rationale 5: Blood samples taken from venous blood sites are more accurate than those from capillary sites.
