Answer to Question 1

D
Response:
Terbutaline is a tocolytic agent used to halt preterm labor. It would not be used to treat postpartum hemorrhage. Oxytocin, methylergonovine, and carboprost are drugs used to manage postpartum hemorrhage.

Answer to Question 2

D
Response:
The child should keep a record of daily readings, being sure to measure peak flow at the same time each day. The child should stand up straight, take a deep breath, close the lips tightly around the mouthpiece, and blow out hard and fast. The child should do the procedure three times and record the highest reading.
