    ATI RN Comprehensive Predictor 2023 Updated Proctored Exam

    A nurse is assessing a client who is in active labor. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. A temperature of 37.4° C (99.3° F) is within the normal range during labor and does not require intervention. B. A fetal heart rate (FHR) baseline of 170/min is elevated, which could indicate fetal distress, requiring further evaluation and intervention. C. Early decelerations in the FHR are common during contractions and are not typically a cause for concern. D. Contractions lasting 80 seconds are within the normal range for active labor and do not require reporting unless they become too frequent or intense.
