LABOR AND DELIVERY SAUNDERS’ NCLEX EXAM
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS 2024/2025
GRADED A+
authentic - (answers)what are two vitals of fetal montioring
internal fetal scalp electrode - (answers)this is inserted through cervix must be 2
cm dilated and ruptured membranes, to the skin of the presenting part of the
fetus providing ECG
110-160 - (answers)normal range HR of fetus before delivery
2-3 bpm - (answers)short term variability - what is the normal change in FHR just
before delivery stage 1
6-25 bpm - (answers)long term variability rhytmic fluctuation that occur 2-6 times
per minute with normal flux of FHR.
periodic accelerations of FHR - (answers)increase FHR occurs with contractions
and may indicate decreased amniotic fluid or mild umbilikcal cord compression
non periodic or spontaneous - (answers)FHR acceleration symmetric, uniform, not
related to contractions from fetal movement and fetal well-being
early deceleration - (answers)decreased FHR beginning at onset of contraction
and returning to baseline by end of contraction with nadir at acme
, 2
notify health care provide - (answers)what should nurse do if early deceleration of
FHR, examine vagina, if fetus is not descending
late decelration - (answers)decreased FHR after the contraction begins with nadir
occuring after peak of contraction and returns to baseline after end of contraction
fetal head compression - (answers)what is the cause of early deceleration FHR
uteroplacental insufficiency - (answers)what is cause of late decelerations FHR
oxygenation, reposition on left, IV fluid increase, discontinue oxytocin, report to
dr. - (answers)what is nurse interventions to late deceleration FHR
variable decelerations - (answers)deceleration occur suddenly, vary in duration
and intensity, vary in relation to contractions and resolve abruptly
umbilical cord compression - (answers)what is cause of variable decelerationo
FHR
reposition until resolved, exam vagina for prolapsed cord, oxygen -
(answers)interventions for variable decelerations of FHR
