A nurse is teaching a prenatal client about listeriosis and dietary modifications during pregnancy. Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

"I can have a mid-day snack with soft cheese.".

"I can purchase a seafood salad from the grocery store.".

"I can eat grilled chicken on a bun at lunchtime.".

"I can still have a hot dog at the ballpark.".

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

Listeriosis is a foodborne illness that can have severe consequences during pregnancy. To minimize the risk of listeriosis, a pregnant client should avoid certain foods that are more likely to be contaminated with the bacteria Listeria. The correct statement that indicates an understanding of the teaching is:

C) "I can eat grilled chicken on a bun at lunchtime."

Grilled chicken is a safe option, and as long as it's properly cooked, it's a suitable choice during pregnancy. The other options are not recommended during pregnancy:

A) Soft cheeses, like Brie or feta, can carry a risk of Listeria contamination, so they should be avoided.

B) Seafood salad from the grocery store may not be safe as it could contain seafood that's been sitting at improper temperatures, which can increase the risk of foodborne illness.

D) Hot dogs can also be a risk as they are often not served steaming hot, which is necessary to kill any potential Listeria contamination.

Correct Answer is B

No explanation

A. Cataracts B. Hearing loss. C. Macrosomia D. Urinary tract infection (UTI)

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

The correct answer is choice **b. Hearing loss**.

Choice A rationale:

Cataracts are not a common finding in newborns with congenital CMV infection. Cataracts are more commonly associated with other congenital infections like rubella, toxoplasmosis, and herpes simplex virus (HSV).

Choice B rationale:

Hearing loss is one of the most common manifestations of congenital CMV infection. Up to 40-58% of infants with symptomatic congenital CMV infection develop sensorineural hearing loss, which can be unilateral or bilateral, and progressive over time.

Choice C rationale:

Macrosomia, or large birth size, is not a typical finding in congenital CMV infection. In fact, infants with symptomatic congenital CMV infection are more likely to be small for gestational age or have intrauterine growth restriction.

Choice D rationale:

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is not a common presentation of congenital CMV infection. CMV can cause inclusion bodies in the urine, but overt UTI is not a typical finding. More common manifestations include petechiae, hepatosplenomegaly, jaundice, and central nervous system involvement.
