Answer to Question 1

A
Delivering the babies in the hospital after the local medicine woman was hired to set up an altar in a birthing room is an example of cultural adaptation.

The most important nursing measure to prevent persistent fetal circulation is maintaining normal temperature. Maintaining normal blood glucose levels and preventing hypoxia are not the priority nursing measures to prevent persistent fetal circulation. Also, neonatal feedings will not affect persistent fetal circulation.
