A patient's record states her pregnancy history is 1 term pregnancy, 1 miscarriage at 10 weeks, twins
at 35 weeks with one who dies soon after birth. What is her GP? - CORRECT ANSWER-Gravida 3 Para
1212
A series of sine waves with similar duration and amplitude develop on the electronic fetal monitor
10 minutes after stadol administration to a patient with a previously normal tracing. The appropriate
response to this fetal heart rate pattern would be to... - CORRECT ANSWER-Continue to observe...
Fetal metabolic acidosis in a tracing can be ruled out with the presence of... - CORRECT ANSWER-
Variability.
Which tachyarrhythmia can result in fetal hydrops? - CORRECT ANSWER-Persistent supraventricular
tachycardia-sign of anemia which can in turn cause hydrops.
A G2P1 at 34 weeks gestation with a history of lupus was in for a routine prenatal visit. FHT's were
auscultated at 60. She was sent to labor and delivery for further evaluation. A complete flat tracing
suggests the fetus has... - CORRECT ANSWER-A complete heart block, which can be a complication of
lupus.
A woman at term is in labor and exhibits recurrent variable decelerations with moderate variability
and meconium stained amniotic fluid. An amnioinfusion is ordered with the goal of... - CORRECT
ANSWER-Relieving cord compression.
Baroreceptors respond mainly to changes in... - CORRECT ANSWER-Blood pressure.
, Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system causes the fetal heart rate to... - CORRECT ANSWER-
increase.
According to the NICHD definitions, which deceleration much drop at least 15 beats per minutes... -
CORRECT ANSWER-Prolonged.
Normal uterine activity... - CORRECT ANSWER-Resting tone less than 20-25 mmHg.
The most common side effect of prostaglandin administration for cervical ripening is... - CORRECT
ANSWER-Tachysystole.
The NICHD definition of uterine tachysystole is a contraction frequency averaged over 30 minutes of
greater than... - CORRECT ANSWER-5 contractions in 10 minutes.
When fetal heart tones are heard about the umbilicus and the fetal head is palpated in the upper
part of uterus, this is consistent with... - CORRECT ANSWER-Breech presentation.
During auscultation of the fetal heart rate, the nurse notes a gradual decrease in the fetal heart rate
after a contraction that lasts 60 seconds. The appropriate documentation of this finding is that after
a contraction, there is a... - CORRECT ANSWER-decrease in the fetal heart rate after contraction.
A reliable method for confirming the presence of an irregular fetal heart rhythm is a... - CORRECT
ANSWER-Fetoscope, because you can HEAR heart sounds vs US soundwaves.
The first Leopold's maneuver assists in identifying fetal... - CORRECT ANSWER-Position.
An advantage of vibroacoustic testing is that it... - CORRECT ANSWER-can be used effectively at any
gestational age.
When differentiating false labor from true labor, a finding that would suggest a woman is in true
labor is if after 1-2 hours of walking... - CORRECT ANSWER-back pain is radiating to the abdomen.
The umbilical vein carries... - CORRECT ANSWER-oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus.
