Latedecelerations are suspected and the nurse notifies the physician. Which is the rationale for thisaction? Incorrect: A nuchal cord (cord around the neck) is associated with variable decelerations, not latedecelerations. Incorrect: Variable decelerations (not late decelerations) are associated with cord compression. Incorrect: Late decelerations are a result of hypoxia. They are not reflective of the strength of maternal contractions. Correct: Late decelerations are associated with uteroplacental insufficiency and are a sign of fetal hypoxia. Repeated late decelerations indicate fetal distress.
