A nurse is reviewing the medical record of a client who is in labor and has cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD).

Which of the following findings should the nurse expect to see in the record?



Correct Answer: C

A macrosomic fetus is a fetus that is larger than average, usually weighing more than 4 kg or 8.8 lb at birth. A large fetus can cause cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD), which is a condition where the baby’s head does not fit through the mother’s pelvis during labor. CPD can lead to prolonged or obstructed labor, which can endanger both the mother and the baby.
