Answer to Question 1
ANS: C
With regard to labor, one would expect to see an increase in maternal blood pressure because of stimulation of alpha receptors. Uterine vasoconstriction would occur in response to stimulation of alpha receptors. One would expect to see a decrease in blood flow to the placenta. The maternal metabolic rate is increased during labor, along with an increase in maternal demand for oxygen.
Answer to Question 2
ANS: B
Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) evidence-based practice guidelines note that maternal blood pressure and fetal heart tones should be assessed following any bolus of additional medication via the epidural route. Obtaining a pain scale response is not typically used for the laboring client but used for postoperative and/or chronic pain clients. Intake and output should be documented as part of the clinical record but is not the priority intervention based on this client's situation. Increasing the flow rate of parenteral fluids requires a physician's order, and there is no clinical evidence that this is needed. Giving parenteral fluids in excess can lead to fluid retention and fluid volume excess.
