Explanation: A: Not appropriate, as microwaving can unevenly heat the dialysate, risking burns or degradation. B: Not appropriate, as a higher angle (e.g., 45 degrees) or upright position is preferred to facilitate drainage. C: Appropriate, as wearing a face mask reduces infection risk. D: Appropriate, as placing the drainage bag below the abdomen uses gravity to facilitate outflow. E: Appropriate, as cloudy outflow may indicate peritonitis, requiring prompt reporting. F: Appropriate, as changing positions can help resolve drainage issues.

Explanation: Presumptive signs are subjective and may have other causes (e.g., amenorrhea, nausea/vomiting, breast tenderness). Probable signs are objective but not definitive (e.g., Chadwick sign, positive home pregnancy test). Positive signs confirm pregnancy (e.g., fetal heart rate, fetus visible on ultrasound).

History & Physical Labor and delivery unit 0800: A 28-year-old nulliparous female comes to the clinic for confirmation of suspected pregnancy due to amenorrhea and a positive home pregnancy test. The client's current exercise regimen includes indoor cycling and outdoor running. The client reports nausea, vomiting, and breast tenderness. She has a 28-day menstrual cycle, and her last menstrual period was March 10- 17.

The client's last menstrual period was March 10-17. Unprotected intercourse occurred on March 24. The client's menstrual cycles are regular and occur every 28 days. Based on the Naegele rule, what is the estimated date of birth?

A. 3-Dec

B. 17-Dec

C. 24-Dec

D. 31-Dec
