Question 1 of 5
A client at 33 weeks gestation is admitted for suspected abruptio placenta. Which factor in the client's history supports this diagnosis? The client states that she:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: used crack an hour before the symptoms began. Abruptio placenta is a condition where the placenta prematurely separates from the uterine wall. Substance abuse, such as crack cocaine, can lead to vasoconstriction and increased risk of abruptio placenta due to compromised blood flow to the placenta. This can result in fetal distress and maternal bleeding. The other choices (A, B,
C) do not directly correlate with abruptio placenta. Intermittent contractions relieved by walking are more suggestive of Braxton Hicks contractions, intercourse is not a known risk factor for abruptio placenta, and drinking wine does not typically cause this condition.
