Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The nurse should assess for the first voiding after a circumcision to evaluate for urinary obstruction related to injury or swelling. Slight blood on the diaper would be expected. Some swelling may occur and does not cause concern unless it blocks the urethra. After a procedure, it is normal for an infant to wish to be held and comforted.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Nurses can foster attachment in several ways, including encouraging parents to invite siblings and other family members to visit for short periods of time to avoid tiring the mother and overstimulating the baby. Of course sick people should not visit. Others can be recruited to feed the baby, and often relatives and close friends desire to do so. If all the visiting takes place when the baby is sleeping, the baby and the visitors cannot get to know each other.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
