The nurse must be aware of the infant's gestational age and how it compares to the birthweight in order to identify any possible problems.

<h3>When should the infant's gestational age be determined?</h3>
  • A typical pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Either before or after birth, the gestational age can be ascertained.
  • Your doctor will use ultrasound to gauge the size of the baby's head, abdomen, and thigh bone before birth. This gives insight into how well the child is developing inside the womb.
<h3>What, for instance, is gestational age?</h3>
  • The following week should not be used when rounding gestational age; instead, use the closest full week.
  • For instance, a baby born at 35 weeks and 5/7 days (the 5th day of the 36th week) has a gestational age of 35 weeks rather than 36 weeks.
  • It is best to check the delivery or operating room record for gestational.

Describe the process of browning ground meat.
Arte-miy333 [17]
Heat the pan (and oil). In order to brown, rather than steam, the pan needs to be hot. Adding oil is optional but recommended for better browning.
Add the meat to the pan and break it into large pieces. Use a wooden spoon, fish spatula, or other sturdy spatula to break the meat up into large pieces in the pan. Let it brown for several minutes.
Break the beef into smaller pieces as it cooks. As the beef begins to brown, continue to break the meat into smaller and smaller pieces.
Cook until browned (and try not to stir). Try not to stir the beef too much; just stir occasionally until all of the beef is browned.
