Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Procedures to ripen (soften) the cervix and make it more likely to dilate with the forces of labor are a common adjunct to induction. Most are done the day before the scheduled induction. Contraindications associated with induction may include cephalopelvic disproportion and umbilical cord prolapse. A cesarean section is indicated for abruptio placentae.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Hypertension associated with pregnancy is associated with reduced placental blood flow. Abruptio placentae, cardiac abnormalities in the neonate, and neonatal jaundice are not directly related to maternal hypertension.
