🔹 Topic 1: Antepartum Nursing Care
Question 1: A nurse is assessing a client at 12 weeks of gestation.
Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
A) The client reports nausea in the morning.
B) The client reports breast tenderness.
C) The client reports a small amount of brown vaginal discharge.
D) The client reports urinary frequency.
Correct ,,,answer,,,: C
Rationale: Brown vaginal discharge may indicate old blood and could
be a sign of threatened miscarriage or other complications. Nausea (A),
breast tenderness (B), and urinary frequency (D) are expected early
pregnancy symptoms.
,Question 2: A nurse is calculating a client's estimated date of birth
(EDB) using Naegele's rule. The client's last menstrual period (LMP)
began on June 15. Which of the following is the correct EDB?
A) March 8
B) March 15
C) March 22
D) March 29
Correct ,,,answer,,,: C
Rationale: Naegele's rule: subtract 3 months from LMP and add 7 days.
June 15 minus 3 months = March 15. March 15 plus 7 days = March 22.
Question 3: A nurse is providing education to a client who is at 8 weeks
of gestation about expected cardiovascular changes during pregnancy.
Which of the following statements by the client indicates understanding?
A) "My heart rate will decrease during pregnancy."
B) "My blood pressure will increase significantly during the first
trimester."
C) "My heart rate may increase by 10 to 20 beats per minute."
D) "My blood pressure will remain exactly the same as before
pregnancy."
Correct ,,,answer,,,: C
Rationale: Heart rate typically increases by 10 to 20 beats per minute
during pregnancy due to increased cardiac output. Blood pressure (B, D)
typically decreases or remains stable in the first and second trimesters,
then returns to pre-pregnancy levels in the third trimester.
,Question 4: A nurse is caring for a client who is at 10 weeks of
gestation and reports frequent nausea and vomiting. Which of the
following is an appropriate recommendation?
A) Drink fluids with every meal.
B) Eat three large meals per day.

Fluids should be taken between meals (A). Small, frequent meals (B) are
recommended, not large meals. Lying down after eating (D) may worsen
nausea.
Question 5: A nurse is reviewing the laboratory report of an infant who
is receiving treatment for severe dehydration. Which of the following
laboratory values indicates effectiveness of the current treatment?
A) Potassium 2.9 mEq/L
B) Sodium 140 mEq/L
C) Urine specific gravity 1.035
D) BUN 25 mg/dL
Correct ,,,answer,,,: B
Rationale: Sodium level of 140 mEq/L is within normal range (135-145
mEq/L), indicating that fluid and electrolyte balance is being restored.
Low potassium (A) indicates continued imbalance. High urine specific
gravity (C) and high BUN (D) indicate ongoing dehydration.
, Question 6: A client at 32 weeks gestation presents with sudden
painless vaginal bleeding. Which is the most likely cause?
A) Placenta previa
B) Abruptio placentae
C) Preterm labor
D) Miscarriage
Correct ,,,answer,,,: A
Rationale: Painless bright-red bleeding in the third trimester is classic
for placenta previa. Abruptio placentae (B) usually causes painful
bleeding with a rigid, tender abdomen.
Question 7: A pregnant patient is Rh-negative. Which situation requires
Rh immunoglobulin (RhoGAM)?
A) Partner is Rh-negative.
B) Spontaneous abortion.
C) Mother is already sensitized.
D) First prenatal visit with negative antibody screen.
Correct ,,,answer,,,: B
Rationale: RhoGAM is administered to prevent isoimmunization after
potential fetal-maternal blood mixing (e.g., abortion, delivery). It is not
needed if the partner is Rh-negative (A) or if the mother is already
sensitized (C).
