active phase of labor

Going to require more pain medication

Going to have a long labor

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

A. Not satisfied with the nonpharmacological comfort measures. This describes dissatisfaction with pain management but does not specifically indicate a change in labor phase.

B. Active phase of labor. Nausea, irritability, and feelings of helplessness are classic signs of transitioning from the latent phase to the active phase of labor, when contractions become stronger and more intense.

C. Going to require more pain medication: Although the patient may need additional pain relief, the question is asking about labor progression, not pain management.

D. Going to have a long labor. Irritability and nausea are signs of labor progression, not necessarily an indicator of a long labor.

A. Presentation, latent phase, powers, position and attitude B. Passenger, passageway, powers, position and psychological response C. Passenger, presentation, lie, attitude and station D. Passageway, presentation. powers, contractions and position

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Presentation, latent phase, powers, position and attitude. While "presentation," "powers," and "position" are relevant, the "latent phase" is a stage of labor, not a factor that affects the labor process. "Attitude" refers to the fetal posture but does not cover the entire process.

B. Passenger, passageway, powers, position and psychological response: These five factors are key components that affect labor and birth: Passenger: The fetus and placenta. Passageway: The birth canal. Powers: The contractions. Position: The mother’s position during labor. Psychological response: The mother’s emotional state during labor.

C. Passenger, presentation, lie, attitude and station: These terms describe aspects of the fetus's position and movement, but they do not encompass all the factors affecting labor.

D. Passageway, presentation, powers, contractions and position: This is close, but "psychological response" is missing, which is one of the essential components affecting labor.
