The nurse could use the SBAR approach when contacting the physician. SBAR is the acronym for reporting areas and include the following:

S = Situation, which can include information on the nurse's name, unit, client name and room number, as well as the problem or situation relevant to the client and its severity.
B = Background including information significant to the situation such as client diagnosis and clinical information related to the problem.
A = Assessment refers to the nurses assessment of what is happening.
R = Recommendation of what the nurse feels is needed to resolve the situation or request what is needed from the physician.

Answer to Question 2

10 to 14 days

Cord separation time is influenced by a number of factors, including type of cord care, type of birth, and other perinatal events. Some dried blood may be seen at the umbilicus at separa-tion. Current recommendations for cord care (AWHONN) include cleaning the cord initially with sterile water and subsequently with clean water.
