Answer to Question 1

A
Reduce intrusions as much as possible. Longer assessments may span several contractions.
The increment is the beginning of the next contraction. It is best to stop with questions and procedures during each contraction.
An analgesic or anesthetic may cause adverse reactions in the woman, preventing her from answering questions correctly.
The coach is the support person. The woman needs to feel confident in her ability to go through labor and delivery, and she should be encouraged to express her own needs and concerns.

Answer to Question 2

C
