ATI Capstone Class Exam Week 12 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is in the first stage of labor. The nurse observes the umbilical cord protruding from the vagina. Which of the following actions should the nurse perform first?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Insert a gloved hand into the vagina to relieve pressure on the cord. This is the priority action in this situation to prevent cord compression, which can compromise fetal blood flow. By gently elevating the presenting part off the cord, the nurse can help restore blood flow to the baby. Covering the cord (
A) or placing the client in the knee-chest position (
B) are not as effective in relieving pressure on the cord. Preparing for an immediate birth (
C) may be necessary but addressing the cord issue is the priority.
