Maternal Monitoring During Labor Questions
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a laboring person who is receiving oxytocin for labor induction. What is the most important intervention to prevent uterine hyperstimulation?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: increase fetal monitoring. Monitoring the fetus closely is crucial to detect signs of uterine hyperstimulation, such as non-reassuring fetal heart rate patterns. This allows for timely interventions to prevent fetal distress or hypoxia. Monitoring contractions (choice D) is important but does not directly address fetal well-being. Administering an epidural (choice C) may help manage pain but does not prevent uterine hyperstimulation. While monitoring fetal heart rate (choice A) is important, increasing the frequency of monitoring (choice B) is more specific to detecting complications related to oxytocin-induced uterine hyperstimulation.
