Passage / Scenario
Newborn 1 hr following birth. 39-week gestation, Emergency cesarean birth for abruptio placenta and non-reassuring fetal heart rate, Apgar 5 at 1 min 8 at 5 min, Positive pressure ventilation given for 1 min followed by free flow oxygenSelect the 5 findings the nurse should report to the provider.
Correct answer
A,B,C,D,F
Rationale
The correct answer includes Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Heart rate, Serum glucose, and Respiratory assessment. These findings are crucial for monitoring a patient's overall health. Hemoglobin and Hematocrit indicate oxygen-carrying capacity and blood volume. Heart rate reflects cardiovascular function. Serum glucose levels are essential for assessing metabolic status. Respiratory assessment helps evaluate oxygenation and ventilation. White blood cells are not typically reported for routine monitoring.
