Question 1 of 5
A nurse is performing a routine assessment on a client who is at 18 weeks of gestation. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: FHR 152/min. At 18 weeks gestation, the fetal heart rate (FHR) typically ranges from 140-160 beats per minute, making 152/min within the normal range. This finding indicates a healthy fetal heart rate.
A: Deep tendon reflexes 4+ is not relevant to a routine assessment at 18 weeks gestation.
B: Fundal height of 14 cm is more indicative of around 12 weeks gestation, not 18 weeks.
C: Blood pressure of 142/94 mm Hg is elevated and would require further assessment and management, not expected at 18 weeks gestation.
In summary, the FHR of 152/min is the expected finding at 18 weeks gestation, making it the correct answer.
