Answer to Question 1

B
A firm fundus and bleeding occurring in a trickle is characteristic of cervical or perineal lacerations. With an inverted uterus, the uterus is not firm. Retained placental fragments do not manifest as a trickle of bleeding. The uterus is firm following massage, so uterine atony is incorrect.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feldenkrais is a movement technique which focuses on various parts of the body while sequencing simple movements. It has been found to be helpful with neuromuscular disorders such as multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and stroke
