Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Neuromuscular dissociation helps the woman learn to relax her body, even when one group of muscles is strongly contracted. Loosening taut muscles when touched by another person describes touch relaxation. Contracting and consciously releasing different muscle groups refers to progressive relaxation. Relaxing while someone is applying pressure against a tendon or large muscle describes sacral pressure.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The Dick-Read method helps prevent the fear-tension-pain cycle by using slow abdominal breathing in early labor and rapid chest breathing in advanced labor. The Lamaze method involves concentration and conditioning to help the woman respond to contractions with relaxation to decrease pain. Viewing childbirth as a traumatic experience, the Leboyer method uses decreased light and noise to help the newborn adapt to extrauterine life more easily. The Bradley method teaches women to use abdominal muscles to increase relaxation and breath control; it emphasizes avoidance of all medications and interventions.
