MULTIPLE CHOICE

reported maternal medical risk factors is:


a. Diabetes mellitus. c. Chronic hypertension.


b. Mitral valve prolapse (MVP). d. Anemia.


ANS: A

The most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors are diabetes and hypertension associated with
pregnancy. Both of these conditions are associated with maternal obesity. There ar e no studies that indicate
MVP is among the most frequently reported maternal risk factors. Hypertension associated with pregnancy,
not chronic hypertension, is one of the most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors. Although
anemia is a concern in pregnancy, it is not one of the most frequently reported maternal medical risk factors in
pregnancy.
