The nurse monitors fetal heart rate during labor and finds a heart rate of 100 beats per minute during contractions increasing to 128 beats between contractions. The nurse's best action is to:
 
  1. Accept fetal heart rate as normal.
  2. Notify the primary RN.
  3. Have the client lie on the right side to increase fetal blood supply.
  4. Have the client lie on her back with the head of the bed elevated.

Question 2

The nurse recognizes that the subculture of health care:
 
  1. Can be ignored when dealing with clients from one's culture.
  2. Takes precedence over her own personal culture.
  3. Affects thinking and cultural values.
  4. Causes many nurses to view their personal cultures as more important.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: The subculture of health care can cause the nurse to view health practices from her personal culture as primitive. The client from the personal culture might lack trust in the nurse who has become part of the healthcare subculture
