Question 1 of 5
Induction of labor is planned for 31-year-old primigravida 39 weeks. She has insulin dependent diabetes. Which nursing action is more important?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Begin Pitocin 4h after Cytotec. This is the most important nursing action because it follows the recommended protocol for inducing labor in a diabetic patient. Cytotec is used to thin the cervix, and waiting 4 hours before starting Pitocin reduces the risk of uterine hyperstimulation, which can be dangerous for the mother and baby. Administering Cytotec every 2 hours (choice B) can increase the risk of hyperstimulation. Placing vaginal gel and ambulating the patient (choice C) may not be appropriate in this case as the patient has diabetes. Preparing to induce labor after administering a tap water enema (choice D) is not a priority compared to ensuring a safe induction process for a diabetic patient.
