pelvic fracture due to blunt abd trauma. What findings should the nurse
expect?

A nurse is assessing a client who is at 12 wks gestation and has hydatidiform
mole. What findings should the nurse expect?
a. hypothermia
b. dark brown vaginal discharge
c. fetal heart tones
d. decreased urinary output ✔️Ans - b. dark brown vaginal discharge

A hydatidiform mole, or a molar pregnancy, is a benign proliferative growth of
the chorionic villi, which gives rise to multiple cysts. The products of
conception transform into a large number of edematous, fluid-filled vesicles.
As cells slough off the uterine wall, vaginal discharge is usually dark brown
and can contain grapelike clusters.

A nurse is assessing a client who is at 35 weeks of gestation and has mild
gestational HTN. What finding should the nurse identify as the priority?
a. 480 mL urine output in 24 hrs
b. 1+ protein in the urine
c. +2 edema of the feet
d. BP 144/92 ✔️Ans - a. 480 mL urine output in 24 hrs

When using the urgent vs. nonurgent approach to client care, the nurse should
determine that the priority finding is 480 mL of urine output in 24 hr because
the minimum acceptable urine output in an adult client is 30 mL/hr. This can
indicate progression of preeclampsia to preeclampsia with severe features,
which requires immediate intervention. Therefore, this is the priority finding.

is reassuring. What action should the nurse take?
a. decrease the dose of oxytocin by half
b. administer oxygen via nonrebreather mask
c. decrease the infusion rate of the maintenance IV fluid
d. administer terbutaline 0.25mg subq ✔️Ans - a. decrease the dose of
oxytocin by half

The nurse should decrease the dose of oxytocin by half because the client is
experiencing uterine tachysystole.

A nurse is caring for a client who is in active labor and has meconium staining
of the amniotic fluid. The nurse notes a reassuring FHR tracing from the
external fetal monitor. What action should the nurse take?
a. prepare the client for emergency c-section
b. perform endotrach suctioning as soon as the fetal head is delivered

d. prepare the client for an ultrasound exam ✔️Ans - c. prepare equipment
needed for newborn resuscitation

, The nurse should ensure that all supplies and equipment needed for

if the newborn has poor respiratory effort, decreased muscle tone, and
bradycardia after delivery.

a. insert a large-bore IV catheter
b. perform a vaginal exam
c. perform continuous external fetal monitoring
d. obtain a blood sample for lab testing ✔️Ans - b. perform a vaginal exam

When a client has a placenta previa, the placenta implants in the lower part of
the uterus and obstructs the cervical os (the opening to the vagina). The nurse
should clarify this prescription because any manipulation can cause tearing of
the placenta and increased bleeding.

A nurse is caring for a client who is at 37 wks gestation and is undergoing a
nonstress test. The FHR is 130 without accelerations for the past 10 min. What
action should the nurse take?

c. report the nonreactive test result to the provider immediately
d. use vibroacoustic stim on the client's abd for 3 seconds ✔️Ans - d. use
vibroacoustic stim on the client's abd for 3 seconds

elicit fetal activity because the fetus is most likely sleeping. Fetal movement
should cause accelerations in the FHR.
