Answer to Question 1

1,2,5
Rationale 1: Dyspnea, cyanosis, and hypotension are symptoms of an amniotic fluid embolus, which necessitates immediate cesarean delivery and preparation for CPR, if indicated.
Rationale 2: Dyspnea, cyanosis, and hypotension are symptoms of an amniotic fluid embolus, which necessitates immediate cesarean delivery and preparation for CPR, if indicated.
Rationale 3: The patient is only 4 cm, so vaginal delivery will not take place immediately.
Rationale 4: McRoberts maneuver is used with shoulder dystocia.
Rationale 5: The chances of a code are high, so the crash cart needs to be available.
