After a difficult marriage, pregnancy and delivery, Jackie observed her infant, Kelly, immediately being given theApgar and then again five minutes later where she was only told Kelly scored a 5. About two days, Jackie saw Kellybeing tested again, this time with what the nurse told her was the NBAS and that Kelly did well. Jackie is veryconfused, worried, and does not understand what either of these tests are about nor what they mean for her orKelly. She is also worried that these tests may have something to do with all of the things she went throughthroughout her pregnancy that she has yet to disclose. Based on what you have learned about the the Apgar andNBAS assessments, what would you tell Jackie to help her better understand these tests, Kelly's scores, andwhat this information means for her and Kelly's development?

MAKE A DECISION: Which approach would you recommend to Catarina during her pregnancy? Catarina should maintain a healthy diet and appropriate exercise regimen, and she should avoid unnecessary exposure to environmental contaminants. She should also keep taking her current antidepressants. Catarina should definitely address the issues of a healthy diet and environment as well as exercise, but her physician should also explore whether Catarina would require to change to another dose or type of antidepressant. Catarina has already exposed her unborn baby to some risk factors, so she should stop taking the antidepressant and try to control her depression through cognitive-behavioral therapy. Catarina should definitely clean up her diet but should continue taking her medication; the baby has already been exposed to antidepressants during critical periods. Think about the factors that influenced your recommendation for Catarina. Why did you choose the option that you did? Include these…

Lourdes Austen, a breast cancer survivor, regularly attends a support group for breast cancer patients and survivors held once a month. Lourdes finds the group a great source of encouragement, information, and support—a safe place to discuss her feelings and concerns about breast cancer. The group is planning a session to talk about nutrition issues, and Lourdes asks clinical medical assistant Nancy McFarland, RMA (AMT), if she would like to attend the meeting with her to contribute to the group’s discussion. With permission from clinic manager Marilyn Johnson and Lourdes’s provider Dr. Mark King, Nancy attends the meeting. The group members are enthusiastic and ask Nancy many questions, including the following: “Why is good nutrition important for cancer patients?” “I don’t have much appetite anymore and get nauseous all the time. What can I do?” “I keep hearing about those macrobiotic diets. Are they any good? Should I try them?” What information can Nancy give in answer to the…

Madison Wills worked night shift on a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at a major medical center. She assumed the care of a very sick premature infant who weighed 1 kg (a little over 2 lb). Sylvia Smithson had been the infant’s nurse during the day shift. Sylvia had started the infant’s intravenous (IV) antibiotic infusion at 6:30 p.m., just before shift change. She reported that the infant’s IV line in his arm was flowing without difficulty and the IV site had no redness or swelling. When Madison assessed the infant at 7:45 after the end-of-shift report, she noted that the baby’s arm was swollen and that the IV had infiltrated (was no longer in the vein). When she stopped the medication, she also noted that the dose on the antibiotics was incorrect and was much too large for a very small infant. Question: What could have been done to prevent the errors?
