A nurse is caring for a client who has hyperemesis gravidarum. The nurse should identify that the client is at risk for which of the following conditions?

A) Glucose level might need to be assessed if there are signs of hypoglycemia or other concerns.
B) Mucous membrane assessment: Dry mucous membranes might indicate dehydration or other issues that need further evaluation.
C. Respiratory rate: The respiratory rate is not provided in the assessment, so there's no basis to report it. The assessment did not mention any abnormal respiratory rate.
D) The sclera color indicates that the newborn has jaundice, which is a common condition in newborns but requires monitoring and treatment to prevent complications.
E. Intake and output: Intake and output are not mentioned in the assessment, so there's no basis to report it. This information is not provided in the assessment findings.
F) The Coombs test result is important for assessing the presence of antibodies that could lead to hemolytic disease of the newborn due to blood type incompatibility with the mother, which can also cause jaundice and other serious problems.
G. Heart rate: The heart rate is not mentioned in the assessment, so there's no basis to report it. The assessment did not mention any abnormal heart rate.
H) Head assessment findings, such as soft and flat fontanels along with a molded head, should be communicated for further evaluation. The head assessment finding of caput succedaneum is a swelling of the scalp caused by pressure during delivery, which usually resolves within a few days but can increase the risk of jaundice and infection.

A) Correct - "Progestin-only birth control pills are preferred for contraception during lactation." Progestin-only pills are generally considered safer for breastfeeding mothers as they are less likely to affect milk supply.
B) Incorrect- There is no strong evidence suggesting that taking birth control pills while breastfeeding increases the risk of breast cancer.
C) Incorrect- While breastfeeding can have contraceptive effects, relying solely on breastfeeding for contraception is not a foolproof method. It's recommended to use additional birth control methods if desired.
D) Incorrect- Birth control pills are not contraindicated for breastfeeding clients, especially if they are progestin-only pills. The preferred method, however, is progestin-only rather than combined hormonal pills.
