A woman's amniotic fluid is noted to be cloudy.
The nurse interprets this finding as:.

Transient fetal hypoxia.

Normal.

Possible infection.

Meconium passage .

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

Choice A rationale:

Transient fetal hypoxia is not typically associated with cloudy amniotic fluid. It’s a condition where the fetus doesn’t get enough oxygen.

Choice B rationale:

Normal amniotic fluid is clear or light yellow. Cloudy amniotic fluid is not considered normal.

Choice C rationale:

Cloudy amniotic fluid could indicate a possible infection. The cloudiness can be due to the presence of bacteria and inflammatory cells.

Choice D rationale:

Meconium passage can cause the amniotic fluid to become green or brown, not typically cloudy. So, the correct answer for both questions 26 and 27 is C.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Notifying the primary care provider is important but not the immediate next step. The nurse has other immediate responsibilities to ensure the safety of the mother and baby.

Choice B rationale:

A vaginal exam could introduce bacteria into the uterus and is not the immediate next step after rupture of membranes.

Choice C rationale:

Changing the linen saver pad is not the immediate next step. While it might be necessary for the comfort of the mother, it does not address the potential risks associated with rupture of membranes.

Choice D rationale:

Checking the fetal heart rate is the correct next step. This ensures that the baby is not in distress following the rupture of membranes.

A. Internal rotation. B. Flexion. C. Pronation. D. Abduction. E. Descent.

Correct Answer is ["A","E"]

Explanation

Choice A rationale:

Internal rotation is a movement the fetus makes as it travels through the birth canal.

Choice B rationale:

Flexion is another movement that occurs as the fetus adjusts its position during labor.

Choice C rationale:

Pronation is not typically included in the description of fetal movements during labor and birth.

Choice D rationale:

Abduction is not a movement associated with the fetus’s journey through the birth canal.

Choice E rationale:

Descent is a key movement that occurs as the fetus moves down through the birth canal.
