A client asks, Can you explain to us how to use the basal body temperature method to detect ovulation and prevent pregnancy? What would be the best reply by the nurse?
 
  A. Take your temperature every evening at the same time and keep a record for a period of several weeks. A noticeable drop in temperature indicates that ovulation has occurred.
   B. Take your temperature every day at the same time and keep a record of the findings. A noticeable rise in temperature indicates ovulation.
   C. Take your temperature each day, immediately upon awakening, and keep a record of each finding. A noticeable drop in temperature indicates that ovulation is about to occur.
   D. This is an unscientific and unproven method of determining ovulation and is not recognized as a means of birth control.

Explanation: 2. Apply eye patches over the newborn's closed eyes during exposure to banks of phototherapy.
3. Discontinue conventional phototherapy and remove the eye patches at least once per shift to assess the eyes for the presence of conjunctivitis.
5. Repositioning allows equal exposure of all skin areas and prevents pressure areas.

The cure for trichomoniasis is easy as long as the patient does not drink alcoholic beverages for 24 hours. Just a single dose of medication is needed to rid the body of the disease. However, without proper precautions, an individual may contract the disease repeatedly. In fact, most people develop trichomoniasis again within three months of their last treatment.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
