A nurse is caring for a client who is at 41 weeks of gestation and has a positive contraction stress test. For which of the following diagnostic tests should the nurse prepare the client?
A. Percutaneous umbilical blood sampling B. Amnioinfusion C. Biophysical profile (BPP) D. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) Answer: Biophysical profile (BPP) A. Percutaneous umbilical blood sampling Percutaneous umbilical blood sampling, commonly called cordocentesis, is the most common method used for fetal blood sampling and transfusion. This is not a diagnostic test used for clients who have a positive contraction stress test. B. Amnioinfusion An amnioinfusion of normal saline or lactated Ringer's is instilled into the amniotic cavity through a transcervical catheter introduced into the uterus to supplement the amount of amniotic fluid. The instillation reduces the severity of variable decelerations caused by cord compression for clients who are in labor. This is not a diagnostic test used for clients who have a positive contraction stress test. C. Biophysical profile (BPP) The nurse should prepare the client for a BPP to further assess fetal well-being. A positive contraction stress test indicates there is potential uteroplacental insufficiency. A BPP uses a real time ultrasound to visualize physical and physiological characteristics of the fetus and observe for fetal biophysical responses to stimuli. D. Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) CVS is the assessment of a portion of the developing placenta, which is aspirated through a thin sterile catheter inserted through the abdominal wall or intravaginally through the cervix under ultrasound guidance. This procedure is done during the first trimester. This is not a diagnostic test used for clients who have a positive contraction stress test.

Dysuria is a manifestation of trichomoniasis, gonorrhea, and candidiasis and can be the result of urine flowing over an irritated and inflamed vulva and surrounding skin. Absence of condom use is consistent with trichomoniasis and gonorrhea. Sexual activity without the use of a condom can result in the transmission of STIs. Candidiasis is a vaginal infection that is not sexually transmitted.
A nurse is caring for a client who is in labor and reports increasing rectal pressure. They are experiencing contractions 2 to 3 min apart, each lasting 80 to 90 seconds, and a vaginal examination reveals that their cervix is dilated to 9 cm. The nurse should identify that the client is in which of the following phases of labor?
Active Rationale: The nurse should identify that the client is in the active phase of labor. This phase is characterized by a cervical dilatation of 6 to 10 cm and contractions every 1.5 to 5 min, each lasting 40 to 90 seconds. Other considerations: - The early phase of labor is characterized by cervical dilation of 0 to 5 cm and contractions every 2 to 30 min, each lasting 30 to 40 seconds. - The passive descent phase of labor is in the second stage of labor and is characterized by a period of calm and rest. The fetus continues to descend and rotate through the birth canal. - The descent phase of labor is characterized by active pushing with contractions every 1 to 2 min, each lasting for 90 seconds.
