Question 1 of 5
The nurse caring for a client in labor should plan to assess the fetal heart rate (FHR) at which specific times? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: A,B,C,E
Rationale: Assessment of the mother and fetus is continuous during the process of labor. However, for all clients, the FHR needs to be assessed before ambulation; immediately after vaginal examinations, rupture of the membranes, or any other invasive procedure; and before the administration of oxytocin because these activities or situations can cause alterations in the FHR. The FHR is also assessed in between contractions, during the contraction, and for at least 30 seconds after the contraction. It is not necessary to assess the FHR before turning the client to her side.
