Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
There are common variables of labor, known as the 4 P's of labor: passage, passenger, powers, and psyche. The passage includes the diameter of the body pelvis and its soft tissues. The passenger includes the fetus, umbilical cord, and placenta. The powers are the uterine contractions. The psyche includes the process of birthing, the attitude and behaviors of the parents, and the evaluation process of the stages of labor.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The nursing care plan for clients with laryngotracheobronc hitis should include administering expectorants to loosen secretions, as ordered. This will assist the child in coughing up mucus. Laryngotracheobronc hitis is a viral infection of the upper airways characterized by a barky cough. Providing the client with a low-sodium, high-calorie diet, and monitoring signs of acidbase imbalance are nursing care measures followed in the case of glomerulonephritis. A nurse needs to take precautions when handling the child with spina bifida.
