Answer to Question 1

1
Explanation: 1. Prolapsed umbilical cord can occur when the membranes rupture. The fetus is more likely to experience variable decelerations because the amniotic fluid is insufficient to keep pressure off the umbilical cord. A vaginal exam is the best way to confirm.

Answer to Question 2

1,3,4
Rationale 1: null
Rationale 2: L: number of currently living children to whom the woman has given birth, not the number in the home
Rationale 3: A: number of pregnancies ending in either spontaneous or therapeutic abortion
Rationale 4: null
Rationale 5: The documentation will not be of just any pregnancy, but descriptive of that pregnancy.
