indicate postpartum hemorrhage.

bright red, topinkish brown, to creamy white.

beats/min below the baseline. Late decelerations are suspected and the
nurse notifies the physician. Which is the rationale for this action?
Incorrect: A nuchal cord (cord around the neck) is associated with variable
decelerations, not late decelerations.
Incorrect: Variable decelerations (not late decelerations) are associated with
cord compression.
Incorrect: Late decelerations are a result of hypoxia. They are not reflective
of the strength of maternal contractions.
Correct: Late decelerations are associated with uteroplacental
insufficiency and are a signof fetal hypoxia. Repeated late decelerations
indicate fetal distress.
The umbilical cord is wrapped tightly around the fetus' neck
The fetal cord is being compressed due to rapid descent of the fetal head
Maternal contractions are not adequate enough to deliver the fetus
The fetus is not receiving adequate oxygen and is in distress
