Question 1 of 5
The nurse assesses a primiparous client in labor for 20 hours. The nurse identifies late decelerations on the monitor and initiates standard procedures for the labor client with this wave pattern. Which intravenous should the nurse perform? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A,C
Rationale: Late decelerations indicate uteroplacental insufficiency. Standard interventions include administering oxygen to improve fetal oxygenation and placing the client on her side to enhance uterine perfusion. Questioning pain relief or readjusting the monitor does not address the issue, and internal monitoring may be considered but is not the first step.
