A woman who thinks she could be pregnant calls her neighbor,
a nurse, to ask when she could use a home pregnancy test to
diagnose pregnancy. Which response is best?

after conception and is best detected at 2 weeks’gestation or
immediately after the first missed period.
A 28-year-old client in active labor complains of cramps in her
leg. What intervention should the nurse implement?
Dorsiflexing the foot by pushing the sole of the foot forward or by standing
(if the client is capable) and putting the heel of the foot on the floor is the
best means of relieving leg cramps.

implement first?
Obtaining a urine analysis should be done first because

often suffering from a urinary tract infection, and this should
be ruled out first.
