Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

The face as the presenting part is not indicated by LSA. LSA stands for Left Sacrum Anterior, which indicates the baby’s position in the womb.

Choice B rationale:

The shoulder as the presenting part is not indicated by LSA. LSA refers to the baby’s position, not the presenting part.

Choice C rationale:

The occiput as the presenting part is not indicated by LSA. LSA refers to the baby’s position, not the presenting part.

Choice D rationale:

The buttocks as the presenting part is indicated by LSA. LSA (Left Sacrum Anterior) means the baby’s sacrum (buttocks) is presenting, and it is oriented to the mother’s left side and is facing forward (anterior).

A. Physiologic anemia due to hemoglobin decrease. B. A 50% increase in blood volume. C. Pressure of the gravid uterus on the vena cava. D. Pressure of the presenting fetal part on the diaphragm.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Physiologic anemia due to hemoglobin decrease does not cause dizziness when lying flat.

Choice B rationale:

A 50% increase in blood volume does not directly cause dizziness when lying flat.

Choice C rationale:

The gravid uterus can compress the vena cava when the woman lies flat, reducing blood flow to the heart and causing dizziness.

Choice D rationale:

Pressure of the presenting fetal part on the diaphragm can cause shortness of breath, but not dizziness.
