b. Decreases baseline
T/F: Oxygen exchange in True
the placenta takes place in
the intervillous space.
T/F: The parasympathetic False
nervous system is a
cardioaccelerator.
T/F: Baroreceptors are True
stretch receptors which
respond to increases or
decreases in blood
pressure.
T/F: There are two True
electronic fetal monitoring
methods of obtaining the
fetal heart rate: the
ultrasound transducer and
the fetal spiral electrode.
T/F: Variability can be False
determined with the
fetoscope.
T/F: Because the False
ultrasound transducer and
toco transducer are
sealed units, they can be
dipped in warm water to
make cleaning easier.
