EFM Practice Test Exam Questions And Answers (Updated And Verified) What FHR finding is top priority for immediate interventions? a. heart block rate of 60 bpm cardia cardia with minimal variability rate of 170 with pushing - answerB. BRADYCARDIA The change from moderate to minimal variability which is most concerning would be when: a. association with tachysystole with or without pitocin b. association after giving stadol and phenergan c. association with active phase of pushing +3 station - answera. association with tachysystole with or without pitocin Explain the difference between "shoulders" and "overshoots" associated with variable decels (not approved NICHD approved terminology ders are associated with moderate variability b. over shoots are associated with moderate variability c. shoulders are associated with minimal variability and overshoots are associated with absent variability - answerders are associated with moderate variability Define tachysystole with pitocin: a. tachysystole is > or equal to 5 contractions in 10 minutes averaged over a 30-minute time frame but only with fetal intolerance b. tachysystole is > or equal to 5 contractions in 10 minutes averaged over a 30-min time despite fetal intolerance of pattern, category 1 tracing c. tachysystole is >5 contractions in 10 minutes averaged over a 30-min period of time - answerc. tachysystole is >5 contractions in 10 minutes averaged over a 30-min period of time What category tracing is baseline rate of 120, absent variability and prolonged 5-minute decel to the 60s? a. cat 1 b. cat 2 c. cat 3 - answercat 2 as the labor nurse is setting up for vacuum assisted or forcep assisted delivery by the provider, the stimulation of the ___________ nerve occurs which results in fetal heart characteristic of a. vagus, tachycardia and minimal variability b. vagus, bradycardia c. trigeminal, minimal variability and an arrhythmia - answerb. vagus, bradycardia which tracing reveals the highest indicator for potential fetal acidemia? a. recurrent late decelerations with minimal variability, baseline rate of 115 bpm b. bradycardia with minimal variability, baseline rate of 85 bpm nged 7- minute decel with baseline recovery to 110s with minimal variability - answerb. bradycardia with minimal variability, baseline rate of 85 bpm NST for a 32.5 week gestation G2P1 with acceleration criteria 2 accelerations of 15 x 15 is considered a. reactive uring, cat 1 c. negative - answera. reactive during the NST a qualifying acceleration: a. does not have to return to the baseline rate. b. must meet criteria of 10x10 in a fetus <32 weeks or 15 x 15 in a fetus >32 weeks. c. if minimal variability accompanies the qualifying accels based on gestation, the NST is considered non reassuring - answerb. must meet criteria of 10x10 in a fetus <32 weeks or 15 x 15 in a fetus >32 weeks. the baseline rate for marked variability is a. find the mid-point of the baseline with marked variability and chart that number b. there is no baseline rate in marked variability c. establish a mid-point range of the baseline and if accels are present, assume fetus is reactive - answerb. there is no baseline rate in marked variability
