Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

These orders are typical interventions for a woman who has had an episiotomy,lacerations,and hemorrhoids.A multiparous classification is not an indication for these orders.A vacuum-assisted birth may be used in conjunction with an episiotomy,which would indicate these interventions.Use of epidural anaesthesia has no correlation with these orders.
