Answer to Question 1

2
1, 3, 4. Incorrect. The assessment of the woman, her fetus, and her labor is a joint effort of the nurse and the primary health care providers, who consult the woman regarding their findings and recommendations. The needs of each woman are different, and many factors must be considered before deciding whether pharmacologic methods, nonpharmacologic methods, or a combination of both will be used to manage labor pain.
2. Correct. The assessment of the woman, her fetus, and her labor is a joint effort of the nurse and the primary health care providers, who consult the woman regarding their findings and rec-ommendations.

Answer to Question 2

4
1, 2, 3. Incorrect. Although these issues may be factors in providing care to a newborn with a di-aphragmatic hernia, the priority nursing diagnosis relates to the oxygenation issues related to lung hypoplasia that occurs with diaphragmatic hernia.
4. Correct. Herniation of the abdominal viscera into the thoracic cavity may cause severe respi-ratory distress and represent a neonatal emergency. Oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, and the correction of acidosis are necessary in infants with large defects.
