Nursing care should stress the importance of monitoring for the signs and symptoms of preterm
y y y y y y y til til til y y y y



labor. Vaginal bleeding needs to be reported to her primary health care provider. Bed rest is an
y y y y y y y y y til y y y y y y



yelement of care. However, the woman may stand for periods of up to 90 minutes, which allows
y y y y y y y y til y y y y y y y



yher the freedom to see her physician. Home uterine activity monitoring may be used to limit
y y y y y y y y til y y y y y y



y the womans need for visits and to monitor her status safely at home. The cerclage can be
y y y y y y y y til y y y y y y y



yremoved at 37 weeks of gestation (to prepare for a vaginal birth), or a cesarean birth can be

ycontraceptives for the next 12 months. What is the bestresponse by the nurse? y yil til y y y y y y y y y




If you get pregnant within 1 year, the chance of a successful pregnancy is very small. Therefore, if
y til y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



a. pregnancy, it would be better for you to use the most reliable method of contraception available. y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y




The major risk to you after a molar pregnancy is a type of cancer that can be diagnosed only by me

hormone that your body produces during pregnancy. If you were to get pregnant, then it would mak

y y y y y y y y y y y y y y




d. Oral contraceptives are the only form of birth control that will prevent a recurrence of a molar
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y




ypreg ANS: B ilt y



Betahuman chorionic gonadotropin (beta-hCG) hormone levels are drawn for 1 year to ensure
y y y y y y y y y y y y



that the mole is completely gone. The chance of developing choriocarcinoma after the
y y y y y y y y y y y y



ydevelopment of a hydatidiform mole is increased. Therefore, the goal is to achieve a zero human
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



ychorionic gonadotropin (hCG) level. If the woman were to become pregnant, then it may
y y y y y y y y y y y y y

,obscure the presence of the potentially carcinogenic cells. Women should be instructed to use
ilt y y y y y y y y y y y y



birth control for 1 year after treatment for a hydatidiform mole. The rationale for avoiding
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



pregnancy
y

, for 1 year is to ensure that carcinogenic cells are not present. Any contraceptive method except an
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y ilt



yintrauterine device (IUD) is acceptable. y y y y

whose ectopic pregnancy is unruptured and measures less than 4 cm in diameter. Methotrexate

d. Internal fetal y




ymonitoring ANS: B ilt y



The presence of painless bleeding should always alert the health care team to the possibility of
y y y y til y y y y y y y y y y



placenta previa, which can be confirmed through ultrasonography. Amniocentesis is not
y y y y y y y y y y



yperformed on a woman who is experiencing bleeding. In the event of an imminent delivery, the
y y y til y y y y y y y y y y y



yfetus is presumed to have immature lungs at this gestational age, and the mother is given
y y y til y y y y y y y y y y y



ycorticosteroids to aid in fetal lung maturity. A CST is not performed at a preterm gestational
til til til y y y y y y y y y y y y



yage.Furthermore, bleeding is a contraindication to a CST. Internal fetal monitoring is also y y y y y y y y y y y y



ycontraindicated in the presence of bleeding. til y y y y
