Passage / Scenario
A client diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum.Which of the following conditions are risk factors for hyperemesis gravidarum?
Correct answer
B,D,E
Rationale
Twin gestations (B) increase hCG levels, contributing to hyperemesis. Molar pregnancy (D) causes significantly elevated hCG, triggering severe nausea. A history of hyperemesis (E) predicts recurrence. Oligohydramnios (A) is unrelated to hormonal changes causing hyperemesis, and anemia (C) may result from, but does not cause, the condition.
