A 22-year-old woman presents to the hospital at 34 weeks gestation. She is G1P1. It was an uncomplicated pregnancy until 12 hours prior to admission, she experienced escape of fluid from the vagina, non-foul smelling.
She developed fever (38.2 degrees centigrade) around 6 hours prior to admission and she currently experiencing mild to moderate uterine contractions. She was started on antimicrobial treatment per IV. FHR is 118 bpm, RR=28 PR=90 BP= 110/70

Is this an actual problem or potential- Abruption of placenta- Placental abruption occurs when the placenta detaches from the inner wall of the womb before delivery. The condition can deprive the baby of oxygen and nutrients. Symptoms include vaginal bleeding, stomach pain and back pain and it occurs most commonly around 25 weeks of pregnancy. This can decrease or block the baby's supply of oxygen and nutrients and cause heavy bleeding in the mother. Placental abruption often happens suddenly. Left untreated, it endangers the life of both the mother and the baby. Placental abruption can cause life-threatening problems for both mother and baby.
For the mother, placental abruption can lead to:
For the baby, placental abruption can lead to:
Hence you are facing a patient with real problem but not potential.
Nursing Care Plan
3.1 Subjective / Objective Data-
Objective data- 22-year, 34 weeks gestation, G1P1.
Foetal heart Rate |
118/min |
Respiratory Rate |
28/min |
Pulse |
90 |
BP |
110/70 |
Temp |
38.2C |
Subjective Data-
· escape of fluid - bleeding
· Fever
· Mild to moderate uterine contraction
3.2 Nursing Diagnosis
The types of abruption placenta are measured according to the degree of placental separation that has occurred
Grade 0. No indication of placental separation and diagnosis of slight separation is made after birth
Grade 1. There is minimal separation which causes vaginal bleeding, but no changes in foetal vital signs occur
Grade 2. Moderate separation occurs and foetal distress is already evident. The uterus is also hard and painful upon palpation
Grade 3. Extreme separation; maternal shock and foetal death is imminent if no interventions are done.
Ultrasound scan can be used to identify the extent of abruption.
3.3 Rationale of Placental abruption
· High parity. A woman who has given birth multiple times predisposes herself to abruption placentae.
· Short umbilical cord. A short umbilical cord could cause the separation of the placenta especially if trauma occurs.
· Advanced maternal age. Women over the age of 35 years old have higher risk of acquiring abruption placentae.
· Direct trauma. Any trauma to the abdomen could cause a separation of the placenta.
· Chorioamnionitis. This is an infection of the foetal membranes and fluid that could predispose the woman to premature placental separation.
3.4 Goals and Objectives
· Reduce bleeding
· Manage Pain
· Keeping the vital under control- FHR need special monitoring.
