Simulated
A nurse is preparing to perform Leopold maneuvers for a client. Identify the sequence the nurse should follow. (Move the steps into the box on the right, placing them in the order of performance. Use all the steps.)
Correct answer
B, C, D, A
Rationale
The correct order for performing Leopold maneuvers is B, C, D, A. Firstly, palpating the fundus (B) helps identify the fetal part. Next, determining the location of the fetal back (C) gives insight into the baby's position. Palpating for the fetal part at the inlet (D) helps determine the presenting part. Finally, identifying the attitude of the head (A) concludes the assessment. The other choices do not align with the sequential nature of Leopold maneuvers, making them incorrect.
