2. Correct. Late deceleration is caused by uteroplacental inefficiency.
3. Incorrect. Variable deceleration is caused by umbilical cord compression.

1. Correct. Early decelerations (and accelerations) generally do not need any nursing inter-vention.
2. Incorrect. Late decelerations suggest the nurse should change the maternal position (lat-eral); variable decelerations require a maternal position change (side to side) also.
3. Incorrect. Late decelerations suggest the nurse should change the maternal position (lat-eral); variable decelerations require a maternal position change (side to side) also.
4. Incorrect. Although changing positions throughout labor is recommended, it is not re-quired in response to early decelerations.
