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.

Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
