Answer to Question 1

2, 3, 4, 5
Explanation: 2. The broad ligament keeps the uterus centrally placed.
3. The uterosacral ligaments sweep back around the rectum and insert on the sides of the first and second sacral vertebrae.
4. The ovarian ligaments anchor the ovary to the uterus.
5. The cardinal ligaments prevent uterine prolapse and support the upper vagina.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale 1: Addressing pain early would not be a preventive action for infection.
Rationale 2: Changing peripads frequently prevents contamination of the perineum and reduces the risk of infection. Wiping from front to back and good hygiene practices also are important.
Rationale 3: Avoiding overhydration actually would increase the risk for infection by not providing adequate fluids to flush the kidneys and bladder.
Rationale 4: Reporting symptoms of uterine cramping would not be a preventive action for infection.
