An expectant couple desires to determine compatibility with a care provider. They ask the nurse for assistance. Which of the following questions should be addressed first?
 
  1. Can my children attend the birth?
  2. If I have a cesarean birth, can my husband attend?
  3. What is your philosophy of birth?
  4. What percentage of your clients have episiotomies?

Question 2

A 26-year-old primigravida has come to the clinic for her regular prenatal visit at 12 weeks. She appears thin and somewhat nervous. She reports that she eats a well-balanced diet, although her weight is 5 pounds less than it was at her last visit.
 
  The results of la-boratory studies confirm that she has a hyperthyroid condition. Based on the available data, the nurse formulates a plan of care. What nursing diagnosis is most appropriate for the woman at this time? a. Deficient fluid volume
  b. Imbalanced nutrition: less than body requirements
  c. Imbalanced nutrition: more than body requirements

Answer to Question 2

B

Feedback
A No clinical signs or symptoms support this nursing diagnosis.
B This patient's clinical cues include weight loss, which would support this nursing diagnosis.
C This patient reports weight loss, not weight gain. This nursing diagnosis is not appropriate.
D Although the patient reports nervousness, based on the patient's other clinical symptoms, the most appropriate nursing diagnosis would be imbalanced nutri-tion: less than body requirements.
