Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
: Before a cleft lip or palate is repaired, feeding the infant becomes a concern because the infant has difficulty maintaining suction with a bottle or breast. Nutritional support is of the highest priority at this time. Visual stimulation is not a concern for the infant with a cleft lip and palate. Prevention of pneumonia and an oral infection are more appropriate concerns after surgery has occurred.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
An amnioinfusion involves the instillation of a volume of warmed, sterile normal saline or Ringer's lactate into the uterus via an intrauterine pressure catheter. The client must remain in bed during the procedure. The use of analgesia is unrelated to this procedure. A cesarean birth is necessary only if the FHR does not improve after the amnioinfusion. Application of a suction cup to the head of the fetus refers to a vacuum-assisted birth.
