Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is to receive oxytocin to augment their labor. Which of the following findings contraindicates the initiation of the oxytocin infusion and should be reported to the provider?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Late decelerations. Late decelerations indicate uteroplacental insufficiency, potentially leading to fetal distress. Oxytocin can further stress the fetus by increasing uterine contractions, exacerbating the late decelerations. Late decelerations are a sign of decreased oxygen supply to the fetus, making it unsafe to augment labor with oxytocin.
Therefore, this finding should be reported to the provider to ensure the safety of both the client and the fetus.

Incorrect choices:
B: Moderate variability of the FHR is a reassuring sign of fetal well-being, not a contraindication for oxytocin infusion.
C: Cessation of uterine dilation may indicate a stalled labor progress but is not a contraindication for initiating oxytocin.
D: Prolonged active phase of labor may warrant augmentation with oxytocin rather than being a contraindication.
