Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Prenatal care is vital for identifying possible problems. People with higher socioeconomic status are more likely to seek adequate prenatal care, which is the most helpful for prevention. Lower socioeconomic groups do not seek out health care, and that puts them at risk for preterm labor. Aid to Families with Dependent Children and WIC aid in the nutritional status of the pregnant woman, but the most helpful aid for the prevention of premature births is adequate prenatal care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Methylergonovine (Methergine) may be given intramuscularly but it elevates blood pressure and should not be given to a woman who is hypertensive.
