Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Maintenance of body temperature is the primary concern when caring for the newborn. The infant will also be weighed, bathed, and inoculated, but those measures are not the primary concern.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The FHR should be assessed immediately after rupture of the membranes to determine the well-being of the baby.
