A nurse is evaluating a client who just attended a breastfeeding class. Which of the following statements by the client demonstrates that she has understood the teaching?

A. Terbutaline: Terbutaline is a beta-agonist used to relax the uterus in cases of preterm labor or to manage uterine hyperstimulation, which would worsen postpartum bleeding. It is contraindicated in postpartum hemorrhage because it inhibits uterine contractions needed to control bleeding.

B. Methylergonovine: Methylergonovine is a uterotonic medication that stimulates sustained uterine contractions, promoting uterine tone and helping to control postpartum hemorrhage. It is used when hemorrhage results from uterine atony and is contraindicated in clients with hypertension or preeclampsia due to vasoconstrictive effects.

C. Magnesium sulfate: Magnesium sulfate is used primarily for seizure prophylaxis in preeclampsia and for tocolysis in preterm labor. It relaxes smooth muscle, including the uterus, which would exacerbate postpartum bleeding rather than treat it.

D. Nifedipine: Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker used as a tocolytic to inhibit preterm labor. It decreases uterine contractions and is therefore inappropriate for managing postpartum hemorrhage, as it would reduce uterine tone and increase bleeding risk.

A. An employee is using a bassinet to move a newborn from the nursery to the mother's room: Transporting a newborn in a bassinet within the unit is standard practice and does not indicate a security breach. Employees are trained to move infants safely between nursery and mother’s room as part of routine care.

B. An individual is wearing an identification badge without a photograph: While a photo badge is important for verifying identity, encountering someone without a photo badge does not immediately indicate a security threat. The nurse should verify the individual’s credentials, but it does not warrant activating a facility-wide security alert.

C. A parent requests that an individual who plans to perform tests on their newborn be identified: This situation involves parental verification of personnel, which is part of routine patient rights and safety practices. It does not represent a security breach requiring an alert, but staff should provide appropriate identification and explanations.

D. A newborn in a client's room is missing one of its identification bands: Missing identification bands on a newborn is a serious safety concern and indicates a potential risk for misidentification or abduction. This situation requires immediate initiation of a security alert according to hospital policy to protect the infant and notify appropriate security personnel.
