LC's VE (6/80/-1) indicates which of the following (there are 3 correct choices)?

Exhibits

Active stage of labor.

80% dilated

The fetus is minus 1 cm above the pelvic outlet.

The presenting part is 1cm below the ischial spines.

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : C,E,F

A. The active stage of labor typically begins when cervical dilation is around 4 cm. LC’s dilation of 6 cm suggests that she is already in the active phase, but this is not confirmed based on this vaginal exam alone.

B. LC is not 80% dilated; the figure 6/80/-1 indicates 6 cm dilation, 80% effaced, and -1 station (fetal head is still above the ischial spines).

C. The fetal station of -1 indicates that the presenting part (head) is 1 cm above the pelvic outlet, which is consistent with this description.

D. The presenting part being 1 cm below the ischial spines would indicate a station of +1, which is not described here.

E. The cervix is 80% effaced, meaning it is more than halfway thinned, which is correct.

F. With a dilation of 6 cm, LC is in the active phase of labor, not the latent phase, but the question refers to the latent phase for comparison.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

A. Genetic testing is not necessary to determine if the twins are identical. Identical twins come from the same egg, while fraternal twins come from separate eggs.

B. The size difference alone does not determine whether twins are identical or fraternal.

C. Dizygotic twins (fraternal twins) are always of different sexes. This is because they are fertilized by two separate sperm and develop from two separate eggs.

D. Monozygotic twins (identical twins) occur when one fertilized egg splits into two embryos. The fact that they are different sexes rules out the possibility of monozygotic twins.

A. Pitocin B. Azythromycin C. Penicillin G D. Magnesium Sulfate

Correct Answer is C

Explanation
