greater than 5

47
Q

dystocia

A

shoulders can’t fit through the birth canal

48
Q

Maternal risk factors: height

A

under 5 ft tall

49
Q

in some states. screening for neural tube defects (AFP testing) is

A

mandated by law

50
Q

US preparation: instruct the client to drink

A

3 to 4 glasses of water and don’t urinate

51
Q

US preparation: Position the woman with pillows

A

under neck and knees to keep pressure off bladder

52
Q

US preparation: late in the third trimester, place wedge under

A

right hip to displace uterus to the left.

53
Q

US Complications

A

none. US can be done routinely

54
Q

Gestational age is best determined by an early

A

sonogram rather than a late one

55
Q

Chorionic Villi Sampling (CVS) cannot replace

A

amniocentesis completely because no sample of amniotic fluid can be obtained for AFP or Rh disease testing

56
Q

Chorionic Villi Sampling (CVS): Removal of a small piece of villi during the period between

A

8 and 12 weeks

57
Q

Chorionic Villi Sampling (CVS): Warn of slight sharp pain upon

A

catheter insertion

58
Q

Chorionic Villi Sampling (CVS) complication that occurs 5% of the time

A

Spontaneous abortion

59
Q

Fetal lung maturity is determined by which test

A

Amniocentesis

60
Q

Amniocentesis: Performed only when uterus rises above the

A

symphysis (between 12 and 13 weeks)

61
Q

the best predictor of extrauterine survival

A

Lung maturity

62
Q

Meconium in amniotic fluid may indicate

A

fetal distress

63
Q

Amniocentesis position

A

supine with hands across chest

64
Q

bilirubin test: protect the samples from

A

light

65
Q

Amniocentesis: for 1 hour after the procedure monitor

A

FHR

66
Q

Amniocentesis: bladder, late verse early

A

in an early Amniocentesis, the bladder should be full for the test.
Late it should be empty

67
Q

Within a contraction, the FHR slows at the very beginning:

A

this is a harmless thing; it’s because the head is compressed a little

68
Q

Fetal anemia causes what change in FHR

A

increased rate

69
Q

A

oxytocin

70

Late

73
Q

Nursing actions for decelerations: position patient

A

on her left side

74
Q

early decelerations (caused by head compression) usually happen between _ and _ cm

A

4 and 7 cm

75
Q

if cord prolapse is detected,

A

put her in knee to chest position or push the cord until they can do a c-section

76
Q

deceleration is especially ominous when when combined with

A

decreased variability or tachycardia

77
Q

a decrease in uterus perfusion results in __ deceleration

late deceleration

78
Q

Cord compression results in a pattern of ___ decelerations

A

variable

79
Q

A healthy fetus will usually respond to its own movement by means of an FHR acceleration of

A

15 beats

80
Q

Nonstress test: The fetus that responds with the ___ accelera- tion is considered “reactive” and healthy

A

15/15 (15 beat increase for 15 second)

81
Q

The fetus is challenged with the stress of labor by the induction of uterine contractions, and the fetal response to physiologically decreased oxygen supply during uterine contractions is noted

A

stress test

82
Q

stress test: Contractions can be induced by nipple stimulation or by infusing a dilute solution of

A

oxytocin (because you’re simulation labor)

83
Q

stress test contraindication:

A

twins

84
Q

stress test: To assess for fetal well-being, a recording of at least ___ contractions in 10 minutes must be obtained.

A

three

85
Q

stress test: the danger of nipple stimulation is

A

you don’t know how much oxytocin will be released from the pituitary

86
Q

Ultrasonography is used to evaluate fetal health by assessing five variables:

87
Q

Fetal pH Blood Sampling: This technique is performed only in the ___
period

A

intrapartum

88
Q

period when the fetal blood from the presenting part

A

(breech or scalp) can be taken

(i.e., when membranes have ruptured and the cervix is dilated 2 to 3

Fetal pH Blood Sampling
