Chapter 1 Immediate Postpartum Hemorrhage
Multiple Choice
1. A Pregnant Woman Is Being Discharged From The Hospital After The Placement Of A
Cervical Cerclage Because Of A History Of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss, Secondary To An
Incompetent Cervix. Which Information Regarding Postprocedural Care Should The Nurse
Emphasize In The Discharge Teaching?
a. Any Vaginal Discharge Should Be Immediately Reported To Her Health Care Provider.
b. The Presence Of Any Contractions, Rupture Of Membranes (Rom), Or Severe Perineal Pressure Sho
c. The Client Will Need To Make Arrangements For Care At Home, Because Her Activity Level Will
Be Re
The Client Will Be Scheduled For A Cesarean Birth. ANS: B
Nursing Care Should Stress The Importance Of Monitoring For The Signs And Symptoms Of Preterm
Labor. Vaginal Bleeding Needs To Be Reported To Her Primary Health Care Provider. Bed Rest Is
An Element Of Care. However, The Woman May Stand For Periods Of Up To 90 Minutes, Which
Allows Her The Freedom To See Her Physician. Home Uterine Activity Monitoring May Be Used To
Limit The Womans Need For Visits And To Monitor Her Status Safely At Home. The Cerclage Can
Be Removed At37 Weeks Of Gestation (To Prepare For A Vaginal Birth), Or A Cesarean Birth Can
Be Planned.

2. A Perinatal Nurse Is Giving Discharge Instructions To A Woman, Status Postsuction, And
Curettage Secondary To A Hydatidiform Mole. The Woman Asks Why She Must Take Oral
Contraceptives For The Next 12 Months. What Is The Bestresponse By The Nurse?
If You Get Pregnant Within 1 Year, The Chance Of A Successful Pregnancy Is Very Small. Therefore,
a. Pregnancy, It Would Be Better For You To Use The Most Reliable Method Of Contraception
Available.
The Major Risk To You After A Molar Pregnancy Is A Type Of Cancer That Can Be Diagnosed Only
Byhormone That Your Body Produces During Pregnancy. If You Were To Get
Pregnant, Then It Would

c. Improve Your Chance Of A Successful Pregnancy, Not Getting Pregnant At This Time Is Best.
Oral Contraceptives Are The Only Form Of Birth Control That Will Prevent A Recurrence Of A
Molar P ANS: B
Betahuman Chorionic Gonadotropin (Beta-Hcg) Hormone Levels Are Drawn For 1 Year To Ensure
That The Mole Is Completely Gone. The Chance Of Developing Choriocarcinoma After The
Development Of A Hydatidiform Mole Is Increased. Therefore, The Goal Is To Achieve A Zero
Humanchorionic Gonadotropin (Hcg) Level. If The Woman Were To Become Pregnant, Then It May
Obscurethe Presence Of The Potentially Carcinogenic Cells. Women Should Be Instructed To Use
Birth Control For 1 Year After Treatment For A Hydatidiform Mole. The Rationale For Avoiding
Pregnancy
, For 1 Year Is To Ensure That Carcinogenic Cells Are Not Present. Any Contraceptive Method
Exceptan Intrauterine Device (Iud) Is Acceptable.

3. The Nurse Is Preparing To Administer Methotrexate To The Client. This Hazardous
Drug Is Most Often Used For Which Obstetric Complication?
a. Complete Hydatidiform Mole
b. Missed Abortion
c. Unruptured Ectopic Pregnancy
Abruptio Placentae ANS: C
Methotrexate Is An Effective Nonsurgical Treatment Option For A Hemodynamically Stable Woman
Whose Ectopic Pregnancy Is Unruptured And Measures Less Than 4 Cm In Diameter. Methotrexate
Isnot Indicated Or Recommended As A Treatment Option For A Complete Hydatidiform Mole, For A
Missed Abortion, Or For Abruptio Placentae.

4. A 26-Year-Old Pregnant Woman, Gravida 2, Para 1-0-0-1, Is 28 Weeks Pregnant When
She Experiences Bright Red, Painless Vaginal Bleeding. On Her Arrival At The Hospital, Which
Diagnostic Procedure Will The Client Most Likely Have Performed?
a. Amniocentesis For Fetal Lung Maturity
b. Transvaginal Ultrasound For Placental Location
c. Contraction Stress Test (Cst)
Internal Fetal Monitoring ANS: B
The Presence Of Painless Bleeding Should Always Alert The Health Care Team To The Possibility Of
Placenta Previa, Which Can Be Confirmed Through Ultrasonography. Amniocentesis Is Not
Performed On A Woman Who Is Experiencing Bleeding. In The Event Of An Imminent Delivery, The
Fetus Is Presumed To Have Immature Lungs At This Gestational Age, And The Mother Is Given
Corticosteroids To Aid In Fetal Lung Maturity. A Cst Is Not Performed At A Preterm Gestational
Age.Furthermore, Bleeding Is A Contraindication To A Cst. Internal Fetal Monitoring Is Also
Contraindicated In The Presence Of Bleeding. Dif: Cognitive Level: Apply Ref: Dm. 680

5. A Laboring Woman With No Known Risk Factors Suddenly Experiences Spontaneous Rom.
The Fluid Consists Of Bright Red Blood. Her Contractions Are Consistent With Her Current Stage
Of Labor.No Change In Uterine Resting Tone Has Occurred. The Fetal Heart Rate (Fhr) Begins To
Decline Rapidly After The Rom. The Nurse Should Suspect The Possibility Of What Condition?
a. Placenta Previa
b. Vasa Previa
c. Severe Abruptio Placentae
Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (Dic) ANS: B
Vasa Previa Is The Result Of A Velamentous Insertion Of The Umbilical Cord. The Umbilical Vessels
Are Not Surrounded By Wharton Jelly And Have No Supportive Tissue. The Umbilical Blood Vessels
Thus Are At Risk For Laceration At Any Time, But Laceration Occurs Most Frequently During Rom.
Thesudden Appearance Of Bright Red Blood At The Time Of Rom And A Sudden Change In The Fhr
Without Other Known Risk Factors Should Immediately Alert The Nurse To The Possibility Of Vasa
Previa. The Presence Of Placenta Previa Most Likely Would Be Ascertained Before Labor And Is
Considered A Risk Factor For This Pregnancy. In Addition, If The Woman Had A Placenta Previa, It
Is Unlikely That She Would Be Allowed To Pursue Labor And A Vaginal Birth. With The Presence Of
Severe Abruptio Placentae, The Uterine Tonicity Typically Is Tetanus (I.E., A Boardlike Uterus). Dic
