sentence.

The client is at risk for developing Target 1 and Target 2.

Choice A rationale:

Moderate variability in the FHR is a reassuring sign of fetal well-being, indicating a responsive fetal autonomic nervous system to normal physiologic stimuli. It is considered a normal finding in active labor, suggesting that the fetus is well-oxygenated and able to cope with contractions.

Choice B rationale:

Prolonged decelerations are concerning patterns on the fetal heart rate (FHR) monitor, indicating potential fetal distress. Prolonged decelerations are defined as lasting more than 2 minutes but less than 10 minutes. These decelerations can be caused by umbilical cord compression, placental insufficiency, or maternal hypotension. Prompt intervention is required, making this choice the correct answer.

Choice C rationale:

Three uterine contractions within 10 minutes, also known as a contraction stress test (CST), is a normal finding. It assesses the fetal response to stress and is used to evaluate the placental function and fetal well-being.

Choice D rationale:

A baseline FHR of 115/min is within the normal range (110-160 beats per minute) for a term fetus. It indicates a stable fetal heart rate, and there is no immediate need for intervention.

C) Eat a light snack before bedtime.

The nurse should include the instruction to eat a light snack before bedtime to promote nighttime sleep in an older adult. A light snack can help prevent hunger pangs during the night, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

The other options are not recommended for promoting nighttime sleep:

A) Performing exercises prior to bedtime can increase alertness and make it more difficult to fall asleep.

B) Taking a 1-hour nap during the day can disrupt the sleep-wake cycle and make it more challenging to sleep at night.

D) Staying in bed for at least 1 hour if unable to fall asleep is not recommended. If the client cannot fall asleep, it's better to get out of bed, engage in a quiet and relaxing activity, and return to bed when feeling sleepy to avoid frustration and anxiety associated with not being able to sleep.
