Answer to Question 1

B, C, D
Feedback
Correct A history of cone biopsy, smoking, and short cervical length are maternal
risk factors for preterm labor. Others include chronic illness, DES
exposure as a fetus, uterine abnormalities, obesity, previous preterm labor
or birth, number of embryos implanted, preeclampsia, anemia, or
infection.
Incorrect Uterine distention caused by multifetal pregnancy or hydramnios are risk
factors for preterm labor. Low educational level, low socioeconomic
status, little or no prenatal care, poor nutrition, or non-white ethnicity are
all demographic risk factors for preterm labor and birth.

Feedback
A The nurse assesses and documents an IV site at least every hour for signs and

Serious complications could occur during this time interval.
