The doctor comes in and examines her. The following are her vitals and the assessment of her labor. . BP 113/64 • P 74 • R 16 • Dilated -5 cm, station 0, effacement 80%

Melissa checks her and the following are the vitals and cervical exam: . BP 118/70 • P76 • R 16 • Dilated 7-8 cm, +1 station, and is 100% effaced. Here is her fetal monitoring strip: What is being shown on the monitoring strip? Define the type of deceleration do you see. Examine the contraction pattern. What are the frequencies and durations? What interventions should be done at this time? What type of contraction pattern is this? What is the resting tone? Is it enough for the baby to recover from the contractions? What does Melissa report to the doctor? Mrs. Jones's labor is being monitored very closely, she is now Melissa's only patient.
