Question 1 of 5
A primigravida arrives at the maternity unit's observation area because she believes she is in labor. The nurse applies the external fetal heart monitor and determines that the fetal heart rate is 140 beats per minute and contractions are occurring irregularly every 10 to 15 minutes. Which assessment finding would confirm to the nurse that the client is not in labor at this time?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Contractions that decrease with walking are typically associated with false labor. In true labor, contractions usually get stronger regardless of activity level.
