,T/F: The most common artifact with True
the ultrasound transducer system
for fetal heart rate is increased
variability.
T/F: All fetal monitors contain a True
logic system designed to reject
artifact.
T/F: Fetal arrhythmias can be seen True
on both internal and external
monitor tracings.
T/F: Variability and periodic True
changes can be detected with both
internal and external monitoring.
T/F: Variable decelerations are a True
vagal response.
T/F: Variable decelerations are the True
most frequently seen fetal heart
rate deceleration pattern in labor.

T/F: Umbilical cord influences that True
can alter blood flow include true
knots, hematomas, and number of
umbilical vessels.
T/F: Low amplitude contractions are False
not an early sign of preterm labor.
T/F: Corticosteroid administration False
may cause an increase in FHR
accelerations.
