Maternal Monitoring During Labor ppt Questions
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assisting with a vaginal delivery. What is the most important intervention when the fetal head begins to crown?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: apply gentle downward pressure. This intervention helps to control the speed of delivery, prevent rapid tearing of the perineum, and reduce the risk of maternal and fetal complications. Applying pressure can also help guide the baby's head to prevent sudden expulsion, allowing for a controlled delivery. Performing perineal massage (B) and assisting with perineal care (C) are important but not the most critical interventions at this stage. Applying a warm compress (D) may provide comfort but does not address the immediate need for controlled delivery.
