Which of the following is an extrinsic influence on the FHR? - ANSWER C. Fetal-placental
circulation
The most highly oxygenated blood in fetal circulation is carried by: - ANSWER C. Ductus
venosus
If fetal arterial pressure begins to fall below normal levels: - ANSWER A. Baroreceptors
cause vasoconstriction and increase the FHR
Fetal heart rate variability is defined as fluctuations in the baseline that are irregular in
and . - ANSWER B. Amplitude and frequency
An increase in the fetal heart rate immediately preceding a variable deceleration is caused by:
- ANSWER A. Occlusion of the umbilical vein
When assessing a FHR tracing, the first step is to: - ANSWER C. Establish the baseline rate
Which deceleration in the FHR is considered benign and does not require an intervention to
correct? - ANSWER A. Early deceleration
If the umbilical vein is the only vessel occluded during cord compression - ANSWER B.
Oxygenated blood may be restricted from being delivered to the fetus
During a fetal sleep cycle, FHR variability is usually . - ANSWER C. Minimal
Uterine tachysystole is defined as: - ANSWER B. >5 contractions in 10 mind over 30 minutes
Maternal-fetal oxygen and nutrient transfer takes place in the: - ANSWER B. intervillous
space
During a contraction, the tocodynamometer detects: - ANSWER A. Pressure created by
tensing of uterine muscle
Normal fetal heart rate baseline is: - ANSWER C. 110-160 bpm
Following birth, a fetal cord blood sample is taken. The results are:
