Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
If a newborn does not draw in a first breath spontaneously following gentle stimulation, place the infant under a radiant heat warmer in a sniffing position, which is the head slightly tipped back. Trendelenburg is not a recommended position since this increases intracranial pressure. Flexing the neck could occlude the airway. The position is very important; the tongue will not occlude the airway if the correct position is used.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, D
Feedback:
When teaching parents of a newborn in the intensive care unit, the nurse should encourage the parents to bring in a small toy to be placed in the baby's bassinette. The parents should also coordinate the times to visit the baby with the primary nurse so that quality time will be available. The parents should be reminded to ask questions about equipment being used for the baby's care. The name of the primary nurse and primary care provider should be recorded in case the parents have any questions. Telephone calls are encouraged and should not be limited. The parents play an active part in the care of the baby.
