Answer to Question 1

B
The longer the membranes have been ruptured, the greater the risk of infection. Pushing before the start of the second stage of labor can result in cervical tears. Precipitous delivery means the delivery occurs before the primary care provider arrives. Supine hypotension occurs because of positioning and is not related to the rupture of the membranes.
