Section is considered to be a ____ (acronym only). - TOLAC (trial of labor after cesarean)

The nurse knows that a pregnant person who has successfully had a vaginal birth after a
Cesarean Section is considered to be a ___ (acronym only). - VBAC (vaginal birth after
cesarean)

The nurse knows that the main risk with TOLAC is the risk of uterine ____. Risk is higher for

absent contractions, hypovolemic shock (hemorrhage), and variable decelerations. - rupture

Pregnant persons who have had a ____ (two words) uterine incision are good candidates for a
TOLAC. - low transverse

The umbilical cord slips down after the patient's membranes rupture and before the baby's
head engages. The pressure of the fetus compresses the cord against the pelvis. The nurse

patient to assume a KNEES to CHEST (child's pose) position. - prolapsed

or partially occludes the internal cervical os or is in close proximity to the cervical opening. The
nurse recognizes this complication as ____ (two words). S/Sx: sudden onset of painless, bright

previa

Placenta previa is typically less of a concern when it is diagnosed [early / late] in the pregnancy.
- early

When a pregnant person experiences a partial or total DETACHMENT of the placenta from a site
of normal implantation in the uterine wall any time before the delivery of the fetus, the nurse

placental abruption

During placenta abruptio, the amount of bleeding, pain and abdominal discomfort vary with the
amount of ____. - separation

reach the placenta across the amnion. The nurse recognizes this pattern of cord insertion as
____ insertion, which involves increased risk of broken vessels. - velamentous

The nurse observes the placenta and notices that the cord is inserted marginally rather than
centrally on the placenta. The nurse recognizes this placental variation as ____ placenta, and
knows that the entire placenta is not getting optimal perfusion. - battledore

The nurse observes the placenta and notices one or more accessory lobes that are attached to
the main placenta by blood vessels. The nurse recognizes this placental variation as ____
placenta, which can increase the risk of not knowing that remnants of the placenta have not
been delivered. - succenturiata

Three variations of placental attachment to the uterus exist. The LEAST SEVERE occurs when
chorionic villi pass through the endometrium and attach onto the myometrium of the uterus.
The nurse recognizes this as placenta ____ and is the most common variation of attachment. -
accreta

Three variations of placental attachment to the uterus exist. The MODERATELY SEVERE version
occurs when the chorionic villi penetrate deeply into the myometrium and attach. The nurse
recognizes this as placenta ___. - increta

Three variations of placental attachment to the uterus exist. The MOST SEVERE version occurs
when the chorionic villi of the placenta dig through the endometrium, the myometrium, the
perimetrium and sometimes the bladder wall. The nurse recognizes this as placenta ___, which
dramatically increases the risk of poor detachment of the placenta during birth. - percreta

Placental attachment typically occurs directly to the [ endometrium / myometrium /
perimetrium ]. - endometrium

Placenta Previa, when diagnosed [ early / late ] in pregnancy via ultrasound, is very serious and
the patient needs to plan for a C/S birth by at least 37 weeks whether they experience bleeding
or not during the pregnancy. - late

A patient presenting with vaginal bleeding, no pain, no contractions is likely experiencing
placenta [ previa / abruptio ]. - previa

A patient who presents (usually after 20 weeks) with vaginal bleeding, uterine pain, and
contractions is likely experiencing placenta [ previa / abruptio ]. Non-reassuring fetal heart
tracing is also common. - abruptio

Yes or No? A patient with a placental abruption will always have vaginal bleeding. - No

,Concealed or complete are two types of placental ____. HTN, smoking, cocaine use and
trauma/mechanical event are typical causes. - abruption

(removal of fibroids) increase the risk of poor placental ____. - attachment
