  4. to elicit an acceleration of the FHR.

Answer to Question 1

4
1. Incorrect. Fetal scalp blood sampling involves someone swabbing the scalp with disin-fectant before a sample is collected. A nurse would stimulate the fetal scalp to elicit an acce-leration of the FHR.
2. Incorrect. Tocolysis is relaxation of the uterus. A nurse would stimulate the fetal scalp to elicit an acceleration of the FHR.
3. Incorrect. Fetal oxygen saturation monitoring involves inserting a sensor. A nurse would stimulate the fetal scalp to elicit an acceleration of the FHR.
4. Correct. The scalp could be stimulated using digital pressure during a vaginal examina-tion.

Answer to Question 2

3
1, 4. Incorrect. Prolonged decelerations are usually isolated events that end spontaneously. However, in certain combinations with late and/or variable decelerations they are a danger sign that requires the nurse to immediately notify the physician or midwife.
2. Incorrect. When the deceleration lasts more than 10 minutes, it constitutes a baseline change. Prolonged decelerations are usually isolated events that end spontaneously. However, in certain combinations with late and/or variable decelerations they are a danger sign that requires the nurse to immediately notify the physician or midwife.
3. Correct. Prolonged decelerations are usually isolated events that end spontaneously. However, in certain combinations with late and/or variable decelerations they are a danger sign that requires the nurse to immediately notify the physician or midwife.
