Answer to Question 1

D
Postpartal hemorrhage and latent hemodynamic effects of anesthesia are the priorities of the nurse during the fourth stage of labor. Observing for urinary retention, signs of infection, or initiating breastfeeding are not high priority at this time.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale:
1. While health promotion activities are related to developmental surveillance, this question is looking specifically at the milestones.
2. While health maintenance activities are related to developmental surveillance, this question is looking specifically at the milestones.
3. These questions are not classified as disease surveillance questions.
4. The question asked by the nurse is seeking information about developmental milestones; therefore, the nurse is involved in developmental surveillance.
