Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for the antepartum client with a velamentous cord insertion. The client asks what symptom she would most likely experience first if one of the vessels should tear. The nurse should respond that she would most likely experience which symptom first?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In a velamentous cord insertion, vessels of the cord divide some distance from the placenta in the placental membrane. Thus, the most likely first symptom would be vaginal bleeding. Abdominal cramping is unlikely to occur; velamentous cord insertion is not related to uterine activity. Contractions are unlikely to occur; velamentous cord insertion is not related to uterine activity. An abruption, when the placenta comes off the uterine wall, results in severe abdominal pain.
