Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: A fetal heart rate baseline of 150 with two accelerations to 160 for 10 seconds within 20 minutes is an increase of only 10 beats per minute.
Rationale 2: A fetal heart rate baseline of 140 with one acceleration to 160 for 15 seconds within 30 minutes is an increase of 20 beats per minute for 15 seconds in 30 minutes. This is not considered reactive.
Rationale 3: A fetal heart rate baseline of 140 with two accelerations to 155 for 15 seconds within 20 minutes is perfect: 15 beats per minute for 15 seconds in 20 minutes.
Rationale 4: A fetal heart rate baseline of 130 with two accelerations to 140 for 15 seconds within 20 minutes is an increase of 10 beats per minute.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:3
Rationale: A 4-year-old is not mature enough to swallow a pill or pieces of a pill. The medication should be crushed and mixed with a very small amount of food, not juice.
