Assessment
Diff dx:
The primary: mild preeclampsia met by SBP >140 or DSP >90 plus proteinuria 300mg/24 hours
or >1+ on dipstick (August and Sibai, 2020)
1)
- Preeclampsia is a multisystem progressive disorder characterized by the new onset of
hypertension and proteinuria. Your BP was elevated 146/90 with +1 proteinuria on your
urine dipstick.
- You meet the criteria for mild preeclampsia. You will need close monitoring
- Due to the mild nature of the BP rise, the plan will be to monitor
F/U:
- We recommended you two be admitted to the hospital for observation but refused,
Please come into the clinic twice weekly for close monitoring for progressive
preeclampsia (August and Sibai, 2020).
- Come in urgently if you develop any of the following symptoms (August and Sibai,
2020)
Worsening headaches
Epigastric pain
Visual changes
RUQ pain
Nausea vomiting
Worsening edema
2) Headaches
- Continue to take Tylenol as that has been effective
- Partake in stress reliving activates such as walking, deep breathing exercises, and
calm environments
3) Acid reflux- (American Pregnancy Association, 2018)
- Heartburn and indigestion are more common during the third trimester because the
growing uterus puts pressure on the intestines and the stomach. The pressure on the
stomach may also push contents back up into the esophagus.
- Eat five to six smaller meals throughout the day rather than three large meals
- Wait an hour after eating to lie down
- Avoid spicy, greasy, and fatty foods
