Question 1 of 5

The nurse is reviewing laboratory results of the client in labor prior to her receiving epidural anesthesia. Which result is most important to report to the HCP prior to the initiation of the epidural?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The nurse should report the low platelet count of 100,000/mm3 (normal is 150,000 to 450,000/mm3). A low count can contribute to bleeding and affect the use of epidural anesthesia. The WBC count in labor is normally increased due to the stress of labor and can be as high as 25,000/mm3 to 30,000/mm3. The glucose level normally falls during labor because of an expenditure of energy in labor. Anemia or a reduction in the Hgb and Hct is common in pregnancy. Hgb levels less than 10 g/dL are considered abnormal in pregnancy.
