Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
To support the 2020 National Health Goals, the nurse should instruct the patient to enter pregnancy without hyperglycemia. This action helps reduce congenital anomalies in newborns. Reducing exercise, limiting carbohydrates and fats, and reducing the use of insulin for blood glucose coverage does not support the 2020 National Health Goals to reduce the complications of pregnancy associated with diabetes.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The process in which bilirubin is changed from a fat-soluble product to a water-soluble product is called conjugation. Hemolysis involves the breakdown of blood cells. In the newborn, hemolysis of the red blood cells is the principal source of bilirubin. Jaundice is the manifestation of increased bilirubin in the bloodstream. Hyperbilirubinemia refers to the increased level of bilirubin in the blood.
