Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale:
1. The client who was overdue is not at as great a risk for postpartum hemorrhage.
2. The client who delivered by cesarean is not at as great a risk for postpartum hemorrhage.
3. Uterine atony is a cause of postpartal hemorrhage. A contributing factor that can cause uterine atony is oxytocin augmentation of labor.
4. The client who delivered vaginally at 36 weeks is not at as great a risk for postpartum hemorrhage.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, D, E, F
Expected outcomes for a newborn with an anomaly include exhibiting no signs of infection; receiving adequate nutrients to support growth; demonstrating signs of adequate circulating oxygen; maintaining adequate gas exchange to support life; maintaining a core body temperature of 97F (36.1C) to 99.5F (37.5C); and maintaining and/or demonstrating no further breakdown in skin integrity. Another expected outcome would be remaining free of, or displaying less frequent signs of, episodic pain.
