Questions Correctly Good Luck: -
In counseling women about the use of a SSRI during
pregnancy, the NP considers that studies to date
reveal:
An increased risk of neural tube defect if taken in the
first trimester
The drugs increase the risk of macrosomia
In exposed neonates, increased rates of pulmonary
hypertension have been reported . Correct answer is:
In exposed neonates, increased rates of pulmonary
hypertension have been reported.
General Feedback:
SSRIs have been widely used during pregnancy as
prenatal depression has been linked to postpartum
depression. As more and more data become available
about the effects of SSRI use during pregnancy, it has
become apparent that there is a small but persistent
increased risk of pulmonary hypertension in the
exposed neonates. There is no link to neural tube
defects, macrosomia, of gestational diabetes.
In the pregnant woman with asthma, in what part of her
pregnancy are symptoms and bronchospasm likely to
worsen?

15-23 weeks
24-33 weeks
29-36 weeks . Correct answer is: 29-36 weeks.
General Feedback:
Bronchospasm can be triggered as a consequence of
increased external pressure on the smooth muscle of
the bronchial structures. The increasing size of the
fetus during weeks 29-36 creates significant
displacement of abdominal and thoracic structures and
places external pressures on the bronchi. In the last
four weeks, as the fetus "drops" into the pelvis,
pressure on the bronchi is actually relieved a bit and
symptoms often improve.
Medications most commonly pass through the placenta
via:
Facilitated transport
Passive diffusion
Capillary pump action . General Feedback:
The placenta is freely permeable and most medications
that are administered to the mother just pass through
the placenta along their concentration gradient until a
steady state is achieved (i.e., passive diffusion).
Facilitated transport and mechanical carrier state are
mechanisms by which a medication requires another
compound to allow the drug to pass through the
membrane barrier. Pump actions are required when a
medication or other compound is being actively
pumped across a membrane against its concentration
gradient.
When treating a woman with a UTI who is 22-weeks
pregnant, the NP prescribes:

Nitrofurantoin
Ciprofloxacin
Azithromycin . Correct answer is: Nitrofurantoin.
General Feedback:
In both the pregnant and non-pregnant woman, E. coli
is the most common cause of uncomplicated UTI.
Nitrofurantoin is a recommended first-line agent during
pregnancy (pregnancy category B). Azithromycin is not
recommended for UTIs, and the use of ciprofloxacin
(pregnancy category C) should be limited given trends
of increasing resistance by E. coli and the availability of
a safer alternative during pregnancy.
In treating a pregnant woman with acute bacterial
rhinosinusitis, the NP would likely avoid prescribing:
Amoxicillin
Azithromycin
Levofloxacin . Correct answer is: Levofloxacin.
General Feedback:
Amoxicillin and azithromycin are both indicated for
acute bacterial rhinosinusitis (ABRS) and are pregnancy
category B. While levofloxacin is indicated for ABRS in
certain circumstances, levofloxacin is not indicated as a
first-line agent in the otherwise healthy patient.
Additionally, levofloxacin is pregnancy category C and
would not be used when safer, effective alternatives
are available.
The recommended duration of antimicrobial therapy for
treatment of a urinary tract infection in a pregnant
woman is:
