When is fetal bradycardia C
most common?
a. Intra-amniotic infection
b. Fetal anemia
c. Prolonged umbilical
cord compression
d. Treatment with atropine
,While evaluating an A
external monitor tracing of
a woman in active labour,
the nurse notes that the
fetal heart rate (FHR) for
five sequential
contractions begins to
decelerate late in the
contraction, with the nadir
of the decelerations
occurring after the peak
of the contraction. What is
the nurse's priority
intervention?
a. Change the woman's
position.
b. Notify the care
provider.
c. Assist with
amnioinfusion.
d. Insert a scalp electrode.
Which is a cause of early A
decelerations?
a. Transient fetal head
compression
b. Umbilical cord
compression
c. Uteroplacental
insufficiency
d. Spontaneous rupture of
membranes
,Which is true in relation to A
accelerations with fetal
movement?
a. They are considered
normal.
b. They are caused by
umbilical cord
compression.
c. They warrant close
observation.
d. They are caused by
uteroplacental
insufficiency.
Which is a cause of B
variable fetal heart rate
(FHR) decelerations?
a. Altered fetal cerebral
blood flow
b. Umbilical cord
compression
c. Uteroplacental
insufficiency
d. Fetal hypoxemia
, What should the nurse C
who is providing care for
the labouring woman
understand about late
fetal heart rate (FHR)
decelerations?
a. Altered cerebral blood
flow
b. Umbilical cord
compression
c. Uteroplacental
insufficiency
d. Meconium fluid
When providing care for A
the labouring woman,
which fetal heart rate
(FHR) deviation should the
nurse understand that
amnioinfusion is used to
treat?
a. Variable decelerations
b. Late decelerations
c. Fetal bradycardia
d. Fetal tachycardia
