Extract:
A nurse midwife is examining a client who is a primigravida at 42 weeks of gestation and states that she believes she is in labor.
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following findings confirm to the nurse that the client is in labor?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Cervical dilation. This finding confirms that the client is in labor because cervical dilation is a definitive sign of the onset of labor. As labor progresses, the cervix dilates to allow for the passage of the baby through the birth canal. Brownish vaginal discharge (
A) may indicate bloody show, but it is not a definitive sign of labor. Amniotic fluid in the vaginal vault (
B) may indicate rupture of membranes but does not necessarily confirm labor. Pain above the umbilicus (
C) could be related to various issues and is not specific to labor.
Therefore, cervical dilation is the most reliable indicator of labor among the options provided.
