A nurse is collecting data from a client who has placenta previa. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Placenta previa is a condition where the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix, leading to vaginal bleeding. The bleeding is typically painless and bright red in color. This is an important finding that should be assessed and monitored closely.
A rigid abdomen is not a characteristic finding of placenta previa. It could be a sign of another condition such as placental abruption or uterine rupture, which are separate complications.
Fetal movement is not directly related to placenta previa. It is a normal finding and can vary depending on the gestational age and individual fetal patterns.
Placenta previa is not typically associated with persistent uterine contractions. However, it is important to monitor for any signs of preterm labor or other complications that could cause uterine contractions.
