Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Tachysystolic labor patterns in a patient with CPD indicates that the baby's head is not able to fit through the pelvis, leading to ineffective contractions. In such cases, a cesarean section is often necessary for a safe delivery. Amniotomy, nipple stimulation, and oxytocin administration would not be effective in addressing CPD.
