Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Displaced pelvic fractures can heal in such a way that leads to a contracture or diminished diameter of the pelvis. Nondisplaced fractures can heal and maintain adequate diameters for birth.
Rationale 2: Not all patients will be able to deliver vaginally, but not all will need cesarean birth.
Rationale 3: It is not therapeutic to tell a patient to talk to someone else.
Rationale 4: Not all patients will be able to deliver vaginally, but not all will need cesarean birth.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3
Rationale 1: This could be seen with uterine rupture.
Rationale 2: This is seen if there is uterine rupture.
Rationale 3: The uterus is not holding the fetus in place anymore if the uterus ruptures.
Rationale 4: The fetus does not have tachycardia.
Rationale 5: There are no early decelerations.
