Answer to Question 1

C
If the hospital/clinic were within walking distance of the girl's home, this would prevent the teen from missing appointments due to transportation problems. If the institution were open days, evenings, and Saturday by special arrangement, this would be helpful for teens who work, go to school, or have other time-of-day restrictions. Scheduling conflicts are a major barrier to health care. Whenever possible, the teen should be scheduled to see the same nurses and practitioners for continuity of care. A negative attitude is unfortunate because it discourages families that would benefit most from consistent prenatal care.

Answer to Question 2

C
An intrauterine pressure catheter can measure actual intrauterine pressure.
