Answer to Question 1

1, 4, 5

4. Expectant management of placenta previa, when the client is at less than 37 weeks' gestation, includes evaluating FHR with an external monitor.
5. Expectant management of placenta previa, when the client is at less than 37 weeks' gestation, includes monitoring blood loss, pain, and uterine contractility.

Answer to Question 2

2,3,4
Rationale 1: The correct diagnosis would be Less than Body Requirements related to formula intolerance and inadequate intake.
Rationale 2: Risk of impaired skin integrity is related to chronic diarrhea.
Rationale 3: Risk for infection is related to perinatal exposure and immunoregulation suppression secondary to HIV/AIDS.
Rationale 4: Impaired physical mobility is related to decreased neuromuscular development.
Rationale 5: This diagnosis is pertinent to the newborn who is drug-exposed, related to CNS excitation secondary to drug withdrawal.
