Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Uterine atony is a common complication following polyhydramnios because the excessive amniotic fluid can lead to uterine overdistension, which in turn can cause poor uterine

muscle tone and increased risk of postpartum hemorrhage.

Choice B rationale

Thrombophlebitis is an inflammation of a vein with clot formation, but it is not directly associated with polyhydramnios.

Choice C rationale

Postpartum preeclampsia is high blood pressure and signs of organ damage after delivery, but there is no direct link between polyhydramnios and this condition.

Choice D rationale

Retained placental fragments can lead to postpartum hemorrhage but are not specifically associated with polyhydramnios.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Accidental lacerations are possible during a cesarean delivery, but they are typically managed quickly and are not the most critical issue immediately after birth.

Choice B rationale

Respiratory distress is the priority assessment for a newborn following a cesarean delivery because cesarean births can increase the risk of transient tachypnea or other respiratory complications due to the lack of labor-induced respiratory adaptation.

Choice C rationale

Hypothermia is a concern for all newborns, but respiratory distress takes precedence in the immediate post-delivery period, especially following cesarean delivery.

Choice D rationale

Acrocyanosis is a common and typically benign condition in newborns, not requiring immediate intervention compared to respiratory distress.
