Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
In this definition, reciprocal refers to the feedback from the infant during the attachment process. The quiet alert state is a good time for bonding but does not define reciprocal attachment. Reciprocal attachment deals with feedback behavior and is not unidirectional.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, D
The nurse makes the decision to perform an intermittent sterile catheterization if the client is unable to void, the amount is less than 150 mL, and the fundus is displaced. A nonpalpable bladder and firm fundus at or below the umbilicus and in the midline confirm that the bladder is empty and rule out urinary retention with overflow.
