A woman pregnant at term arrives at the small rural hospital in active labor. She has received no prenatal care. At delivery, it is discovered that the newborn has a gastroschisis defect. Immediate transfer to a pediatric hospital is planned.
 
  Nursing care to prepare the infant for discharge would include: 1. Covering the exposed intestines with sterile moist gauze.
  2. Wrapping the infant warmly in two or three blankets.
  3. Providing a sterile water feeding to maintain hydration during transport.
  4. Preventing the parents from seeing the infant prior to transfer to reduce their anxiety.
