MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. When providing care for a pregnant woman, the nurse should be aware that one of the most frequently
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 are 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.

b. Situation, background, assessment, recommendation


c. Subjective background, assessment, recommendation


d. Situation, background, anticipated recommendation

communication among health care providers. Failure to communicate is one of the major reasons for errors in
health care. The SBAR technique has the potential to serve as a means to reduce errors.
