Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D
Twins and higher-order multiple-gestation births are associated with more maternal and fetal
complications, including excessive bleeding from adherent placentas, intrauterine growth restriction, long-term fetal disabilities such as cerebral palsy, and multiple fetal presentations. A woman with twins who presents at 38 weeks' gestation or later may be a candidate for a vaginal delivery.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
This woman is 2 weeks postterm and due to the deterioration of the placenta and subsequent fetal hypoxia, she has been admitted for induction. Emotional support is always necessary, but the nurse needs to be prepared to do more than just offer emotional support. Frequent vaginal checks are not indicated in the nonlaboring patient. This woman may or may not need a cesarean delivery
