Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a provider’s office is caring for a client who is at 34 weeks of gestation and at risk for placental abruption. The nurse should recognize that which of the following is the most common risk factor for abruption?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Hypertension. Hypertension is the most common risk factor for placental abruption due to the increased pressure on the placenta, leading to separation from the uterine wall. Cocaine use (

D) can also increase the risk but are not as common as hypertension. Blunt force trauma (
