ANS: B
Lack of knowledge of hygiene measures increases the risk of postpartum infection. Wiping the perineum from front to back prevents introduction of infection into the reproductive tract from the anal area. Changing the peripad once per shift and performing pericare twice in a shift are incorrect because these interventions should be done at every voiding or bowel elimination, and increasing fluid intake does not prevent infection of the reproductive tract.
