Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: The risk of complications rises with the use of a vacuum extraction device.
Rationale 2: There should be further descent with the first two pulls on the vacuum extractor, which will indicate there is nothing holding the fetus back.
Rationale 3: Traction should be applied with contractions to maximize the effort.
Rationale 4: The woman often feels only slight pressure during a vacuum extraction if she has adequate regional anesthesia.

Answer to Question 2

3
Explanation: 3. If the woman is Rh negative and not sensitized, she is given Rh immune globulin to prevent antibody formation.
