Answer to Question 1

1
1. Correct. Episodic accelerations of the FHR occur during fetal movement and are indica-tions of fetal well-being.
2. Incorrect. Umbilical cord compression results in variable decelerations of the FHR.
3. Incorrect. Accelerations in the FHR are an indication of fetal well-being and do not war-rant close observation.
4. Incorrect. Uteroplacental insufficiency results in late decelerations of the FHR.

Answer to Question 2

1
1. Correct. Early decelerations are the fetal response to fetal head compression.
2. Incorrect. Variable decelerations are associated with umbilical cord compression.
3. Incorrect. Late decelerations are associated with uteroplacental insufficiency.
4. Incorrect. Spontaneous rupture of membranes has no bearing on FHR unless the umbilical cord prolapses. This would result in variable or prolonged bradycardia.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
