To determine the frequency of a contrxn :
a) note the time from the ending of one contrxn to the ending of the next b) note the time from the ending of one contrxn to the beginning of the next c) note the time from the beginning of one contrxn to the ending of the next d) note the time from the beginning of one contrxn to the beginning of the next |
d) note the time from the beginning of one contrxn to the beginning of the next
|

To determine the duration of a contrxn:
a) the time when the tensing of the fundus is 1st felt & again as relaxation occurs b) the time when the tensing of the fundus is 1st felt to the beginning of the next contrxn c) from the time relaxation begins to the time of onset of the following contrxn |
a) the time when the tensing of the fundus is 1st felt & again as relaxation occurs
|

With palpation, during the acme of the contrxn, intensity can be evaluated by:
a) fetal heart rate b) maternal heart rate c) noting the duration of the contrxn d) palpating the indentability of the fundus |
d) palpating the indentability of the fundus
|

|
To adequately determine the contrxn pattern, it is necessary to:
a) assess at least 1 ctrxn by frequency, duration, intensity b) assess at least 3 contrxn's by frequency, duration, intensity c) assess contrxn's by duration, frquency & intensity for at least 1/2 hour. |
b) assess at least 3 contrxn's by frequency, duration, intensity
|
|
|
When palpating the contrxn to evaluate the intensity, the indentability of a moderate contrxn may be compared to:
a) nose b) chin c) forhead |
b) chin

A good time to assess a womans perception of pain is:
a) by asking her about the worst pain she has ever experienced while conducting the admission screening b) by asking her about cultural beliefs about pain during the psychsociocultural assessment c) during contraction assessment |
c) during contraction assessment
|
|
|
When assessing contractions by palpation:
a) You should not note or chart the womans affect & response to cntrxns because it is subjective data b) You should get her permission to note & chart her affect & response to contrxn's c) Noting & charting the womans affect & response to contrxn's is appropriate. |
c) Noting & charting the womans affect & response to contrxn's is appropriate.
