Explanation

A. The amniotic fluid produces hormones necessary for fetal development. – Incorrect; the placenta, not the amniotic fluid, is responsible for hormone production.

B. The amniotic fluid regulates the temperature of the fetus. It helps maintain a constant temperature. – Correct; amniotic fluid provides thermal regulation for the fetus.

C. The amniotic fluid aids in digestion and absorption of nutrients. – Incorrect; the fetus obtains nutrients via the placenta, not the amniotic fluid.

D. The amniotic fluid cushions and protects the fetus. – Correct; amniotic fluid acts as a shock absorber, protecting the fetus from trauma.

E. Amniotic fluid allows the fetus to move freely. Aids in symmetric growth by providing an unrestricted environment. – Correct; amniotic fluid prevents fetal deformities by allowing movement and growth.

"This monitor measures the intensity and frequency of your contractions so I can observe labor progress." C. "This monitor allows me to observe your labor progress. By observing the pattern, I can tell how strong your contractions are." D. "This monitor provides me with information related to the duration and frequency of your contractions."

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. "This monitor gives me information related to fetal heart rate fluctuations during your labor." – Incorrect; the TOCO does not monitor fetal heart rate; the fetal heart rate is detected using a Doppler or fetal scalp electrode.

B. "This monitor measures the intensity and frequency of your contractions so I can observe labor progress." – Incorrect; the TOCO can measure frequency and duration, but not intensity (which requires an intrauterine pressure catheter).

C. "This monitor allows me to observe your labor progress. By observing the pattern, I can tell how strong your contractions are." – Incorrect; TOCO does not measure contraction strength, only duration and frequency.

D. "This monitor provides me with information related to the duration and frequency of your contractions." – Correct; a TOCO detects and records contraction frequency and duration, but not intensity.
