**move position
___ is used in an attempt to turn the fetus from a breech or
shoulder position to a vertex presentation for birth. Correct
Answer external cephalic version
___ labor =cervical change Correct Answer true
___ lies are either cephalic or breech presentation depending on
the fetal structure that first enters the mother's pelvis. Correct
Answer longitudinal
___ phase of the first stage of labor is characterized by 1-3cm
cervix dilation, mild intensity and contractions every 15-30min.
Correct Answer latent (early)
___ phase of the first stage of labor is characterized by 4-7cm
cervix dilation, moderate intensity, contractions 3-5 minutes 30-
60sec in duration. Correct Answer active
___ phase of the first stage of labor is characterized by 8-10cm
cervix dilation, strong intensity, and contractions every 2-3
minutes (60-90 sec in duration) Correct Answer transition
___ presentation
Lie: longitudinal or vertical
,Presentation: breech (sacrum and feet presenting)
Presenting part: sacrum with feet
Attitude: general flexion Correct Answer complete breech
___ refers to the client hold her breath and tightening the
abdominal muscles to help with pushing. Correct Answer
valsalva maneuver
___ stage of labor: 10 cm/100%.-birth of baby Correct Answer
second
___ variability is highly predictive of a normal fetal acid-base
balance. It indicates that the FHR regulation is not significantly
affected by fetal sleep cycles, tachycardia, prematurity,
congenital anomalies, preexisting neurologic injury, or CNS
depressant medications. Correct Answer moderate

brain, which continues to grow for some time after birth.

determinate. It can result from fetal hypoxemia and metabolic
acidemia. Correct Answer absent or minimal
