Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: The uterine contractions of labor become more frequent as labor progresses.
Rationale 2: The uterine contractions of labor become more painful over time.
Rationale 3: The uterine contractions of labor achieve cervical change only as the contractions become longer, stronger, and thus more painful over time.
Rationale 4: The uterine contractions of labor do not become shorter in duration as labor progresses.

Answer to Question 2

3,4,5
Rationale 1: The pattern of exercise is important, and would be part of the history, not of the physical exam.
Rationale 2: An acceptable birth plan is important, but not until after conception has occurred.
Rationale 3: The prenatal physical must include the body mass index measurement to assess for obesity, which is indicated by a body mass index over 30.
Rationale 4: The prenatal physical must include data concerning diarrhea, which could indicate an intestinal infection.
Rationale 5: The prenatal physical must include a hemoglobin test to ensure that anemia is not present. Hemoglobin under 12 g/dl indicates anemia.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs.
