Rationale 1: No studies have shown that the patient outcome is improved.
Rationale 2: This statement is accurate.

Rationale 4: Parents feel that they are involved and not just waiting.
Rationale 5: It increases the sense of reality to be present during unsuccessful resuscitation events.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3
Rationale 1: By crossing suture lines, this finding indicates it is caput succedaneum, a normal finding after vaginal delivery. No further evaluation or treatment is needed.
Rationale 2: This is a description of milia, a normal finding. No further care is required.
Rationale 3: This is a description of erythema toxicum, a normal newborn finding that requires no further treatment.
Rationale 4: This Moro reflex is incomplete. Further evaluation is necessary to determine if there has been injury to the right arm and/or shoulder.
Rationale 5: This is a description of a meconium-stained newborn. The passage of meconium has occurred at a more distant time, leading to the staining. The child will need to be evaluated for meconium aspiration.
Global Rationale:
