The nurse is returning phone calls from clients. Which client does the nurse anticipate would not require a serum beta hCG?
 
  1. A client with a risk of ectopic pregnancy
  2. A client with spotting during pregnancy
  3. A client with previous pelvic inflammatory disease
  4. A client with a previous history of twins

Question 2

The nurse at a shelter is counseling a group of battered women. The nurse will emphasize that:
 
  1. Battering will not stop or decrease if they become pregnant.
  2. About 1 of every 5 women will experience abuse in her lifetime.
  3. When these women go back to the situation after the abuser has cooled down, it will be better.
  4. The battered woman can readily leave the situation.

Answer to Question 1

4
Explanation: 4. A previous history of twins is not a risk factor for ectopic pregnancy. Beta hCG testing is not indicated for this client.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: Pregnancy does not stop the abuser, and sometimes it increases the intensity of the abuse.
Rationale 2: About 1 of every 3 women will experience abuse in her lifetime.
Rationale 3: This is not true. Sometimes when women return, the abuse is worse.
Rationale 4: It is difficult for the battered woman to leave the situation, often because of children and finances.
