A perinatal nurse is providing care for a large-for-gestational-age neonate admitted to the observational unit after a complicated vaginal birth resulting in shoulder dystocia. The assessment that would be a priority for the nurse to perform should be the weight of the baby because an increased weight of the baby (Macrosomia) than the normal is a common cause of shoulder dystocia.

On the mother's end, her blood glucose levels should be checked as well.

<h3>What is shoulder dystocia?</h3>

When one or both of your baby's shoulders become trapped during vaginal delivery, it is known as shoulder dystocia. There are no symptoms, and there is no method to stop the illness. A large baby, a narrow pelvis, or being in the wrong position can all be contributing factors. There could be serious side effects, such as the child suffering nerve damage.
