Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Anaphylactoid syndrome was previously known as amniotic fluid embolism. This is a rare complication that results in a medical emergency in which CPR measures are initiated and mechanical ventilation, correction of shock and hypotension, and blood component therapy are also begun. Meconium-stained fluid is associated with particulate matter that may be found in the maternal circulation. Internal fetal monitoring may provide a potential source of entry because it is an invasive procedure. The use of nebulizers is not indicated.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The presence of CPD is a contraindication for vaginal birth. To prevent further complications, the client should be prepped for a cesarean section.
