Case Study: Question 4 You are the nurse caring for a 35 y/o G2P1001 here at 39 weeks gestation for an induction of labor due to poorly controlled GDMa2. Additionally, her pregnancy has been complicated by polyhydramnios and suspected fetal macrosomia, with estimated fetal weight in the 97th percentile. The provider ordered her induction to be started with pitocin. It is currently infusing at 4 mu and she is beginning to become uncomfortable. Her last cervical exam was 3/50/-4. Her water is broken and the fetus demonstrated a prolonged deceleration. You performed a cervical exam and palpated an umbilical cord. A cesarean section was performed and now you are assigning the one minute APGAR to the infant. What is the APGAR score? You see that the baby’s whole body is blue, heart rate is 65, no grimace, limp/no tone, weak and slow respirations
