Answer to Question 1

3
1, 2, 4. Incorrect. Maternal hypotension is not associated with these conditions.
3. Correct. Low maternal blood pressure decreases placental blood flow during uterine contrac-tions and results in fetal hypoxemia.

Answer to Question 2

1
1. Correct. Amnioinfusion is used during labor to either supplement the amount of amniotic fluid to reduce the severity of variable decelerations caused by cord compression or to dilute meconium-stained amniotic fluid.
2, 3, 4. Incorrect. Amnioinfusion has no bearing on these alterations in FHR tracings.
