T/F: Oxygen exchange in the True
placenta takes place in the
intervillous space.
T/F: The parasympathetic False
nervous system is a
cardioaccelerator.
T/F: Baroreceptors are stretch True
receptors which respond to
increases or decreases in blood
pressure.
T/F: There are two electronic True
fetal monitoring methods of
obtaining the fetal heart rate:
the ultrasound transducer and
the fetal spiral electrode.
T/F: Variability can be determined False
with the fetoscope.
T/F: Because the ultrasound False
transducer and toco transducer
are sealed units, they can be
dipped in warm water to make
cleaning easier.
, T/F: The most common artifact True
with the ultrasound transducer
system for fetal heart rate is
increased variability.
T/F: All fetal monitors contain True
a logic system designed to
reject artifact.
T/F: The monitor should always True
be tested before starting a tracing,
either external or internal mode
and labeled a test.
T/F: The paper speed on the fetal False
monitor should always be set at
1cm/min.
T/F: Both internal and external False
monitoring methods are equally
accurate means of obtaining the
fetal heart rate and contraction
patterns.
T/F: The external toco is True
usually placed over the
uterine fundus to pick up
contractions.
