1 This is correct. Neonates who weigh less than 2,500 g or more than 4,000 g are
most likely to be assessed for gestational age. The nurse will determine if the
neonate is post-term.
2 This is unffiting. Neonates who are preterm, born before 37 weeks based on the
maternal menstrual history, will be assessed for gestational age. The neonate
born at 37 weeks gestational age does not fall into this group.
