does not persist longer than 12 weeks postpartum, usually resolving during
the first postpartum week: gestational hypertension
2. ____ HTN that is present before pregnancy: chronic hypertension
3. ____ pregnancy specific condition in which HTN develops after 20 weeks
of gestation or in the early postpartum period in a previously normotensive
woman; the presence of thrombocytopenia , impaired liver function, newly
developed renal insufficiency, pulmonary edema, or new onset of cerebral or
visual disturbances confirms the dx: preeclampsia

6. ____ accumulation of fluid in the tissues of the lowest or most dependent parts
of the body where hydrostatic pressure is the greatest. for ambulating women
it is first evident in _____; if the pregnant woman is confined to bed, it occurs in
the _____: dependent edema
ankles
sacrum
7. ____ onset of seizure activity or coma in the woman dx with preeclampsia, with
no hx of preexisting pathology that can result in seizure activity: eclampsia
8. ____ a lab diagnosis for a variant of severe preeclampsia that involves hepatic
dysfunction; it is characterized by _____, elevated _____, and low _____: HELLP

9. ____ activity in blood vessels that diminishes their diameter, thereby impeding
tissue perfusion in all organ systems, increasing peripheral vascular resistance
and BP, and increase endothelial cell permeability: vasospam
10. ___ pregnancy that ends as a result of natural causes before 20 weeks of

5 types are ____, ____, ____, ____, and _____: spontaneous miscarriage
threatened

of gestation: recurrent (habitual) miscarriage
12. ____ placental hormone used in the dx of pregnancy and pregnancy loss: hu-
man chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)
13. ____ surgical procedure in which the cervix is widened and an instrument
is inserted to scrape the uterine walls and remove uterine contents: dilation and
curettage (D&C)
14. ____ a cause of late miscarriage; it is traditionally defined as passive and
painless dilation of the cervix during the second trimester: cervical insufficiency
15. ___ procedure in which a suture is placed around the cervix beneath the
mucosa to usually in the ampulla or largest part of the uterine tube: cerclage
16. ___ pregnancy is which the fertilized ovum is implanted outside the uterus
cavity, usually in the ampulla or largest part of the uterine tube: ectopic (tubal)
pregnancy
17. ___ an ecchymotic blueness around the umbilicus indicating hematoperiton-
erm; it may develop in an undiagnosed intraabdominal ectopic pregnancy: Cullen
sign
18. a gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD); it is benign proliferative disorders
without a viable fetus; they are caused by abnormal fertilization: hydatidiform mole
(molar pregnancy)
