Preview
A nurse is caring for a client who is in the latent phase of labor and is receiving oxytocin
via continuous IV infusion. The nurse notes that the client is having contractions every 2
min which last 100-110 seconds that the fetal heart rate 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 – – correct 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 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 – – correct 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 – – correct 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.
