Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is in active labor with a fetus in the occipitoposterior position. The nurse assists the client into a hands-and-knees position. Which of the following questions should the nurse ask to evaluate the effectiveness of this intervention?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: "Has your back labor improved?" This question is appropriate because the occipitoposterior position often leads to back labor due to the baby's position pressing on the mother's spine. By asking if the back labor has improved, the nurse can assess the effectiveness of the hands-and-knees position in helping relieve pressure on the mother's back.
Choice A: "Does that lessen your suprapubic pain?" is incorrect because the hands-and-knees position is more effective for back pain relief, not suprapubic pain.
Choice B: "Are you feeling relief from your pelvic pressure?" is incorrect because the hands-and-knees position is more effective for addressing back pain, not pelvic pressure.
Choice C: "Do your contractions feel further apart?" is incorrect as the position change is unlikely to affect the timing of contractions significantly.
In summary, the correct question (
Choice
D) directly addresses the main issue associated with occipitoposterior
