Answer to Question 1

D
Upon delivery of the fetus, complications may include a sudden gush of blood, a lengthening of the cord at the vaginal orifice, and that the uterus has assumed a more globular shape, indicating placental separation.

Answer to Question 2

A
Nursing care of clients who have MG includes monitoring respiratory status, preventing aspiration, and teaching about living with the disease (e.g., avoiding excessive activity, eating a snack before taking medications to minimize gastrointestinal irritation).
