Passage / Scenario
A 22-year-old homeless woman with a 12-week gestational uterus, BP 110/70, BMI 17.5, cocaine use, and prior early pregnancy lossesA 22-year-old homeless woman arrives at a walk-in clinic seeking pregnancy confirmation. The nurse notes on assessment a 12-week gestational uterus, a BP of 110/70, a BMI of 17.5. The client admits to using cocaine a few times. She has been pregnant before and indicates she 'loses them early.' What characteristics place the client in the high-risk pregnancy category? Select all that apply.
Correct answer
A,D,E,F
Rationale
Homelessness increases risks via poor nutrition and stress; BMI 17.5 indicates malnutrition; lack of prenatal care raises complication risks; prior losses suggest underlying issues. Age (22) is optimal, and BP 110/70 is normal, not risks.
