Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: A pregnant patient would not be treated with doxycycline.
Rationale 2: The combined treatment of ceftriaxone (Rocephin) IM and doxycycline (Vibramycin) orally provides dual treatment for gonorrhea and chlamydia, which frequently occur together.
Rationale 3: The combined treatment of ceftriaxone (Rocephin) IM and doxycycline (Vibramycin) orally is not the correct treatment for syphilis, and a pregnant patient would not be treated with doxycycline.
Rationale 4: The combined treatment of ceftriaxone (Rocephin) IM and doxycycline (Vibramycin) orally is not the correct treatment for trichomoniasis.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: Responding hesitantly to infant cries might need further assessment to determine what the mother is feeling. She might not know what to do, and needs assistance to guide her.
Rationale 2: Expressing satisfaction about the sex of the baby is usually a positive sign.
Rationale 3: Numerous friends who visit the client and give advice can provide a strong support system for her, and assessment can be done on her reactions to the advice.
Rationale 4: Talking to and cuddling with the infant frequently is a behavior that facilitates attachment.
