Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving oxytocin via continuous IV infusion and is experiencing persistent late decelerations in the FHR. After discontinuing the infusion, which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Administer oxygen at 10 L/min via nonrebreather facemask. Late decelerations in FHR during oxytocin infusion indicate uteroplacental insufficiency. Administering oxygen helps improve oxygenation to the fetus, potentially alleviating the late decelerations. This action addresses the underlying cause and supports fetal oxygenation. In contrast, option A may increase intrauterine pressure, worsening fetal distress. Option C (supine position) can further compromise placental perfusion. Option D (amnioinfusion) is used for variable decelerations, not late decelerations.
