NU 333 exam 2 Questions With Complete Solutions
absent variability Correct Answers Amplitude range of the
FHR fluctuations not detectable to the unaided eye.
accelerations Correct Answers Periodic increases in the
baseline fetal heart rate
active phase Correct Answers Criterion: 6-10 cm
Duration: Multiparous women progress more rapidly than
nulliparous women
Contractions: 1.5-5 min apart
• Strength: Moderate to strong by palpation
• Frequency:
• Duration:
Descent:
• Station of presenting part : Nulliparous women 0 by 6 cm/
Multiparous women
−1 by 6 cm
Show:
• Color: Pink-to-bloody mucus
• Amount: Moderate to copious
Behavior: Becomes more serious, doubtful of pain control, more
apprehensive; desires companionship and encouragement;
attention more inwardly directed; has some difficulty following
directions
As active labor continues: Pain may be described as severe;
backache is common; frustration, fear of loss of control, and
irritability may be voiced; expresses doubt about ability to
continue; nausea and vomiting, especially if hyperventilating;
, perspiration of forehead and upper lip; shaking tremor of thighs;
feeling of need to defecate, pressure on anus
Active phase of labor: Correct Answers 4-7 cm
moderate to strong contractions
regular
q 3-5 min
lasts 40-70 sec
Amnioinfusion Correct Answers introduction of a solution into
the amniotic sac; an isotonic solution is most commonly used to
relieve fetal distress
AROM Correct Answers artificial rupture of membranes
Category 1 FHR Correct Answers -Baseline 110-160
-moderate variability no late or variable
-early decells or accels ok
-Normal FHR tracing
Category 2 FHR Correct Answers Characterized by
intermediate FHR patterns of tachy or bradycardia, minimal or
absent baseline variability not accompanied by recurrent
decelerations, marked baseline variability, no accelerations, and
periodic or episodic decelerations.
Category 3 FHR Correct Answers Abnormal!
Predictive of abnormal fetal acid-base status
PROMT eval!!!
Maternal O2, change position, etc
