Answer»

Correct answer is (a) True

The best I can explain: True, because during labour, the uterus muscle starts contraction of increasing intensity in a bid to expel out the child. The intrauterine pressure can reach VALUES of 150 mmHg or more during the expulsion period. However, a normal PATIENT in spontaneous active labour will demonstrate uterine CONTRACTIONS OCCURRING at intervals of three to five minutes, with a duration of 30 to 70 s and a peak intensity of 50 to 75 mmHg.
