Question 1 of 5
The client at 31 weeks’ gestation is diagnosed with mild preeclampsia and placed on home management. What information should the nurse include when providing home management instructions? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer: B,D,E
Rationale: A sudden weight gain could indicate that the mild preeclampsia is uncontrolled and the client is retaining fluid. The HCP should be consulted. Stretching and ROM exercises can help prevent thrombophlebitis and venous stasis. The lateral recumbent position improves uteroplacental blood flow, reduces maternal BP, and promotes diuresis. A diagnosis of mild preeclampsia does not require hospitalization during the antepartum period unless home management fails to reduce the client’s BP, or other complications occur. BP monitoring every 4 to 6 hours is recommended for the client with mild preeclampsia, but the BP can be taken by the client and does not require a consult with home care.
