The nurse is caring for a patient at 30 weeks' gestation who is experiencing preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). Which statement indicates that the patient needs additional teaching? If I:
 
  1. Were having a singleton pregnancy instead of twins, my membranes would probably not have ruptured.
  2. Develop a urinary tract infection in my next pregnancy, I might rupture membranes early again.
  3. Want to become pregnant again, I will have to plan on being on bed rest for the whole pregnancy.
  4. Have bleeding in the third trimester of my next pregnancy, I might rupture membranes again.

Question 2

Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Multifetal gestation increases the risk for PPROM.
Rationale 2: A UTI increases the risk for PPROM.
Rationale 3: There is no evidence that bed rest in a subsequent pregnancy decreases the risk for PPROM.
Rationale 4: Second- or third-trimester bleeding increases the risk for PPROM.

Answer to Question 2

1
Explanation: 1. The insertion of Essure creates a tissue response that results in tubal occlusion in about 3 months.
