Answer to Question 1

B
Palpation of the abdomen and liver could result in a sudden increase in intraabdominal pres-sure, leading to the rupture of the subcapsular hematoma.
Assessment of heart and lungs is performed on every patient.
Checking reflexes is not contraindicated.
Venous blood is checked frequently to observe for thrombocytopenia.

Answer to Question 2

A
An infant delivered within 1 to 4 hours of maternal analgesic administration is at risk for res-piratory depression from the sedative effects of the narcotic.
Bradycardia is not the anticipated side effect of maternal analgesics.
Acrocyanosis is an expected finding in a newborn and is not related to maternal analgesics.
The infant that is having a side effect to maternal analgesics normally would have a decrease in respirations, not an increase.
