(Select all that apply — more than one answer may be correct.), Progesterone — stimulates strong uterine contractions, Placental lactogen — promotes breast development, hCG — maintains the corpus luteum, Aldosterone — promotes fluid retention, Parathyroid hormone — maintains high blood calcium, [MCQ] During the fetal stage (week 8 to birth), which statement is TRUE?, All organs first appear during this stage, No ossification occurs, The name of the offspring is "embryo", Existing structures grow and mature; only a few new parts appear, [SATA] Which findings are associated with the fifth month of fetal development? (Select all that apply — more than one answer may be correct.), Vernix caseosa covers the skin, Fertilization occurs, The lungs first begin producing surfactant in large amounts, The mother may feel fetal movement, Fine hair (lanugo) appears, [MCQ] Which hormonal change is thought to help INITIATE labour?, Rising progesterone from the aging placenta, A surge in surfactant, Falling progesterone, which allows prostaglandin synthesis, A drop in oxytocin, [NCLEX] A labouring client’s contractions get stronger as the fetal head pushes on the cervix, causing more oxytocin release. This is an example of:, Positive feedback, A block to polyspermy, Cleavage, Negative feedback, [MCQ] Which hormone from the posterior pituitary directly stimulates the uterine contractions of labour?, Prolactin, Oxytocin, hCG, Estrogen, [NCLEX] After delivery, the nurse carefully inspects the expelled placenta. The priority reason is that retained placental fragments can cause:, Faster milk let-down, Polyspermy, Increased surfactant, A medical emergency (hemorrhage/infection), [NCLEX] A premature newborn has difficulty keeping the alveoli open. The nurse recognizes this is most likely due to a deficiency of:, Colostrum, Oxytocin, Surfactant, hCG, [MCQ] Why is a newborn especially susceptible to dehydration?, Prolactin is inhibited, The kidneys’ water-conservation mechanisms are not yet fully functioning, The lungs are not inflated, The placenta is retained, [SATA] Which are true of the Apgar score? (Select all that apply — more than one answer may be correct.), Each sign is scored 0, 1, or 2, A blue colour or poor breathing at first always means permanent damage, The maximum total score is 10, It assesses colour, heart rate, reflex, muscle tone, and respiration, It is done at 1 and 5 minutes after birth, [MCQ] After childbirth, milk PRODUCTION is stimulated by ______, whose action is no longer inhibited once the placenta is delivered., hCG, Progesterone, Prolactin, Oxytocin, [NCLEX] A breastfeeding mother notices milk flows when her baby begins to suckle. This let-down reflex is caused by ____ released from the ____., estrogen; placenta, prolactin; anterior pituitary, hCG; trophoblast, oxytocin; posterior pituitary, [MCQ] Colostrum, the first milk, is best described as:, A watery fluid rich in proteins and antibodies (IgA), Produced only if the baby is premature, A high-fat milk that appears immediately at birth, Identical to mature milk, [MCQ] A newborn lives off which reserve for the first 2–3 days until the mother’s milk comes in?, Colostrum from the placenta, Stored fat (adipose tissue), Amniotic fluid, Surfactant, [MCQ] Which structure connects the fetus to the placenta?, Amniotic sac, Corona radiata, Cervix, Umbilical cord, [MCQ] The fluid that surrounds and cushions the fetus is the ____, held within the ____., amniotic fluid; amniotic sac, colostrum; placenta, exudate; uterine wall, chyle; cisterna chyli, [SATA] Which functions belong to the placenta? (Select all that apply — more than one answer may be correct.), Secretes hCG, Is formed from the trophoblast, Secretes placental lactogen for breast development, Produces surfactant for the fetal lungs, Secretes estrogens, [MCQ] Pregnancy continues for approximately how many weeks (from fertilization) before the birth process?, 32 weeks, 38 weeks, 44 weeks, 28 weeks
