Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a prenatal clinic is completing a skin assessment of a client who is in the second trimester. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: A,B,D
Rationale: The correct answer is A, B, D. During the second trimester, common skin changes include chloasma, which presents as hyperpigmented patches on the face (
A); linea nigra, a dark line running from the umbilicus to the pubis (
B); and striae gravidarum, also known as stretch marks (
D). Chloasma and linea nigra are due to hormonal changes, while striae gravidarum result from stretching of the skin due to weight gain. Psoriasis (
C) and eczema (E) are not typically associated with pregnancy-related skin changes during the second trimester.
