Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reviewing laboratory findings for a client who is at 20 weeks of gestation. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Fasting blood glucose 180 mg/dL (74 to 106 mg/dL). A high fasting blood glucose level during pregnancy may indicate gestational diabetes, which can lead to complications for both the mother and the fetus. The nurse should report this finding to the provider for further evaluation and management to prevent adverse outcomes.
Choice A: Hematocrit of 37% falls within the normal range for a pregnant woman and does not require immediate reporting.
Choice B: Creatinine level of 0.9 mg/dL is within the normal range and does not indicate any immediate concerns.
Choice C: WBC count of 11,000/mm3 is slightly elevated but can be a normal response to pregnancy and does not typically require immediate action.
In summary, the correct answer is D because it indicates a potentially serious condition that requires further investigation, while choices A, B, and C are within normal limits for pregnancy and do not raise immediate concerns.
