Antepartum NCLEX Questions And Answers Correctly
Answered!!
A nursing instructor is conducting lecture and is reviewing the functions of the
female reproductive system. She asks Mark to describe the follicle-stimulating
hormone (FSH) and the luteinizing hormone (LH). Mark accurately responds by
stating that:
A.FSH and LH are released from the anterior pituitary gland.
B.FSH and LH are secreted by the corpus luteum of the ovary
C.FSH and LH are secreted by the adrenal glands
D.FSH and LH stimulate the formation of milk during pregnancy.
A. FSH and LH, when stimulated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone from the
hypothalamus, are released from the anterior pituitary gland to stimulate follicular
growth and development, growth of the graafian follicle, and production of progesterone.
A nurse is describing the process of fetal circulation to a client during a prenatal
visit. The nurse accurately tells the client that fetal circulation consists of:
1.Two umbilical veins and one umbilical artery
2.Two umbilical arteries and one umbilical vein
3.Arteries carrying oxygenated blood to the fetus
4.Veins carrying deoxygenated blood to the fetus
2. Blood pumped by the embryo's heart leaves the embryo through two umbilical
arteries. Once oxygenated, the blood then is returned by one umbilical vein. Arteries
carry deoxygenated blood and waste products from the fetus, and veins carry
oxygenated blood and provide oxygen and nutrients to the fetus.
During a prenatal visit at 38 weeks, a nurse assesses the fetal heart rate. The
nurse determines that the fetal heart rate is normal if which of the following is
noted?
1.80 BPM
2.100 BPM
3.150 BPM
4.180 BPM
.3. The fetal heart rate depends in gestational age and ranges from 160-170 BPM in the
first trimester but slows with fetal growth to 120-160 BPM near or at term. At or near
term, if the fetal heart rate is less than 120 or more than 160 BPM with the uterus at
rest, the fetus may be in distress.
A client arrives at a prenatal clinic for the first prenatal assessment. The client
tells a nurse that the first day of her last menstrual period was September 19th,
2005. Using Nagele's rule, the nurse determines the estimated date of
confinement as:
1.July 26, 2006
2.June 12, 2007
3.June 26, 2006
4.July 12, 2007
, 3. Accurate use of Nagele's rule requires that the woman have a regular 28-day
menstrual cycle. Add 7 days to the first day of the last menstrual period, subtract three
months, and then add one year to that date.
A nurse is collecting data during an admission assessment of a client who is
pregnant with twins. The client has a healthy 5-year old child that was delivered at
37 weeks and tells the nurse that she doesn't have any history of abortion or fetal
demise. The nurse would document the GTPAL for this client as:
1.G = 3, T = 2, P = 0, A = 0, L =1
2.G = 2, T = 0, P = 1, A = 0, L =1
3.G = 1, T = 1. P = 1, A = 0, L = 1
4.G = 2, T = 0, P = 0, A = 0, L = 1
2. Pregnancy outcomes can be described with the acronym GTPAL. G is gravidity, the
number of pregnancies. T is term births, the number born at term (38-41 weeks). P is
preterm births, the number born before 38 weeks gestation. A is abortions or
miscarriages (included in gravida if before 20 weeks gestation; included in parity if past
20 weeks gestation). L is live births, the number of live births or living children.
Therefore, a woman who is pregnant with twins and has a child has a gravida of 2.
Because the child was delivered at 37 weeks, the number of preterm births is 1, and the
number of term births is 0. The number of abortions is 0, and the number of live births is
1.
A nurse is performing an assessment of a primapira who is being evaluated in a
clinic during her second trimester of pregnancy. Which of the following indicates
an abnormal physical finding necessitating further testing?
1.Consistent increase in fundal height
2.Fetal heart rate of 180 BPM
3.Braxton hicks contractions
4.Quickening
2. The normal range of the fetal heart rate depends on gestational age. The heart rate is
usually 160-170 BPM in the first trimester and slows with fetal growth, near and at term,
the fetal heart rate ranges from 120-160 BPM. The other options are expected.
A nurse is reviewing the record of a client who has just been told that a
pregnancy test is positive. The physician has documented the presence of a
Goodell's sign. The nurse determines this sign indicates:
1.A softening of the cervix
2.A soft blowing sound that corresponds to the maternal pulse during
auscultation of the uterus.
3.The presence of hCG in the urine
4.The presence of fetal movement
1. In the early weeks of pregnancy the cervix becomes softer as a result of increased
vascularity and hyperplasia, which causes the Goodell's sign
A nursing instructor asks a nursing student who is preparing to assist with the
assessment of a pregnant client to describe the process of quickening. Which of
the following statements if made by the student indicates an understanding of
this term?
1."It is the irregular, painless contractions that occur throughout pregnancy."
2."It is the soft blowing sound that can be heard when the uterus is auscultated."
