Answer to Question 1

F
Caffeine intake should be limited to less than 200 mg per day. The nurse should discuss usual
sources of caffeine with the patient. A 6-oz cup of brewed coffee contains about 103 mg, tea
contains 36 mg, Cola beverages contain 3550 mg/12 ounces and cocoa contain 4 mg/6 oz.
Caffeine changes calcium, thiamine, and iron absorption or excretion.

Answer to Question 2

D
Level 2 ultrasound is performed after 18 weeks gestation and is done when the prescriber suspects fetal abnormalities. Ultrasonography is a noninvasive painless procedure. Level 2 ultrasound is not used to determine if the mother has a structural defect or the gender of the fetus. The fetal gender is determined on level 1 ultrasonography.
