Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback
A Late PPH may be the result of subinvolution of the uterus. Recognized causes of
subinvolution included retained placental fragments and pelvic infection.
B Although defective vascularity of the decidua may cause PPH, late PPH typically
results from subinvolution of the uterus, pelvic infection, or retained placental
fragments.
C Although cervical lacerations may cause PPH, late PPH typically results from
subinvolution of the uterus, pelvic infection, or retained placental fragments.
D Although coagulation disorders may cause PPH, late PPH typically results from
subinvolution of the uterus, pelvic infection, or retained placental fragments.

Answer to Question 2

C, D
Feedback
Correct Ibuprofen, naproxen/naproxen sodium, and ketorolac are all types of
NSAIDs, which are used primarily for pain associated with inflammation.
Incorrect Opioids, such as morphine, are the preferred drugs for the management of
acute, severe pain, including postoperative pain, posttraumatic pain, pain
from vaso-occlusive crisis, and chronic cancer pain. Acetaminophen lacks
the antiinflammatory effects of NSAIDs and provides only minimal
antiinflammatory relief. Although aspirin is an antiinflammatory
medication, because of its association with Reye's syndrome, its use is not
recommended in children.
