Hi! You CAN do well on this exam without the use of additional resources – you’re an awesome Gator, and you prepped for this test, to some degree. No additional resources means NO notes, NO phones, NO smart watches, NO tablets, NO headphones or ear pods while you test. There is NO scrap paper and NO calculator permitted on this test. Make sure you are in a room by yourself when you are taking the test, well-lit and seated at a desk or table. Please take off any hats or masks that may be covering your face, and present in a respectful manner as you would an in-person exam (e.g., do not eat or drink during the test; wear appropriate clothing). Do your best, on your own. Academic dishonesty and misconduct (including failure to adhere to Honorlock directions) will result in earning a zero grade. We DO review your videos and we DO report for academic misconduct (a.k.a. cheating). You KNOW THIS STUFF, and DON’T need to cheat, anyway. It isn’t worth it. You got this!   Please select “true” to demonstrate your understanding: Per The Honor Pledge, which I’m bound to as a UF student, I acknowledge the following: “On my honor, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid in completing this exam.”

Scenario: A nurse is caring for a laboring woman at 7 cm dilation with ruptured membranes. The nurse needs to assess both fetal heart rate (FHR) and uterine activity using internal monitoring methods.   Question: Which combination of devices would the nurse use to assess FHR and uterine activity in this scenario?

Scenario: A 32-year-old woman at 39 weeks gestation is undergoing labor induction with oxytocin due to gestational diabetes. After two hours of oxytocin administration, the nurse notices that the patient is experiencing contractions lasting 80 seconds with less than 30 seconds between them. The fetal heart rate shows late decelerations, and the patient is feeling lightheaded and having difficulty catching her breath.   Question: What is the most likely cause of these symptoms, and what action should the nurse take?
