Answer to Question 1

Montevideo units
The baseline intrauterine pressure for each contraction within a 10-minute period is
subtracted from the peak pressure. The resulting pressures (peak subtract baseline) are
added together to calculate the Montevideo units.

Answer to Question 2

B, D, E, F
Feedback
Correct These characteristics are all considered non-reassuring or abnormal and
belong in Category III.
Incorrect A fetal heart rate of 110 to 160 bpm is considered normal and belongs in
Category I. Absent baseline variability not accompanied by recurrent
decelerations is a Category II characteristic.
