Answer to Question 1

ANS: c, d
Recommended screenings for women ages 19 to 39 are clinical breast exams and Pap test every 3 years. Obesity (a BMI of 30 or greater) places the woman at risk for type 2 diabetes; decreased physical activity places the woman at risk of depression.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: post-term
Meconium aspiration pneumonia occurs in 10 to 26 of all deliveries, and the incidence increases directly with gestational age. (Before 37 weeks' gestation there is a 2 incidence, and at 42 weeks' gestation there is a 44 incidence.)
