Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving oxytocin to induce labor. The nurse should discontinue the oxytocin if which of the following occurs?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Contractions last 60 seconds. Prolonged contractions can lead to uterine hyperstimulation, which can decrease oxygen supply to the fetus, posing a risk of fetal distress. Discontinuing oxytocin in this situation is crucial to prevent further complications.
B: Non-repetitive early decelerations are not directly related to oxytocin administration and do not warrant discontinuation of the medication.
C: 6 contractions in 10 minutes is a sign of uterine hyperstimulation but alone may not be enough to discontinue oxytocin.
D: Moderate variability of the fetal heart rate is a reassuring sign of fetal well-being, not an indication to discontinue oxytocin.
