Question 1 of 5

The nurse is assessing the laboring client who is morbidly obese. The nurse is unable to determine the fetal position. Which action should be performed by the nurse to obtain the most accurate method of determining fetal position in this client?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Real-time transabdominal ultrasound (US) is the most accurate assessment measure to determine the fetal position and is frequently available in the birthing setting. US images may be used to assess fetal lie, presentation, and position in the morbidly obese client. Inspection of the abdomen can be used to determine fetal position, but because the client is obese, this is not the most accurate method. Palpation of the abdomen can be used to determine fetal position, but because the client is obese, this is not the most accurate method. Vaginal examination can be used to determine fetal position, but because the client is obese, this is not the most accurate method.
