NRSG 3302 Module 9 Labor and Delivery Questions With
Complete Solutions
How are contractions measured? Correct Answers By
frequency and duration
How can hypertonic uterine dysfunction be managed? Correct
Answers Promote rest, administer pain meds, hydrate with IV
fluids.
How can hypotonic uterine dysfunction be managed? Correct
Answers Assess uterine activity, change positions, administer
IV fluids.
how is marked variability indicated? Correct Answers Range of
25 bpm.
how is minimal variability indicated? Correct Answers
Undetectable range below 5 bpm.
how is moderate variability indicated? Correct Answers Range
of 6-25 bpm.
How is variability in FHR described? Correct Answers It
reflects the CNS activity between the PNS and SNS branches.
VEAL CHOP MINE Correct Answers V = Variable
decelerations
E = Early decelerations
A = Acceleration
L = Late decelerations
, C = Cord Compression
H = Head Compression
O = OK!
P = Placenta Insufficiency
M = Move position
I = Initiate secondary measures
N = Nothing!
E = Emergency Delivery
What are accelerations in fetal heart tracing? Correct Answers
Short-term increases in heart rate in response to contractions and
fetal movement
What are early decelerations in fetal heart tracing? Correct
Answers Mirror image of contractions, caused by pressure on
fetal skull
What are early decelerations? Correct Answers Apparent,
usually symmetrical, gradual decrease in FHR associated with a
contraction.
what are fetal accelerations Correct Answers episodes of fetal
heart rate that increase above the baseline for at least 15 bpm
and last for at least 15 seconds. no intervention needed
What are late decelerations? Correct Answers Visually
apparent symmetrical gradual decrease in FHR associated with
contractions.
