Which of the following interventions should be included in the plan of care for a client with severe preeclampsia? (Select all that apply.)



Correct Answer: ["A","B","C","D"]

The correct answer is choices A, B, C and D. These are all interventions that can help lower blood pressure, prevent seizures, and monitor the health of the mother and the baby in severe preeclampsia.

Choice E is wrong because continuous fetal heart rate monitoring is not necessary for severe preeclampsia unless there are signs of fetal distress or labor. Intermittent auscultation or nonstress test can be used instead to assess fetal well-being.

Normal ranges for blood pressure are below 140/90 mmHg, for urine output are 30 mL/hour or more, for platelet count are 150,000 to 450,000 per microliter, and for liver enzymes are 7 to 56 units per liter for AST and 0 to 35 units per liter for ALT. Magnesium sulfate levels should be maintained between 4 to 7 mg/dL to prevent toxicity. Fetal heart rate should be between 110 to 160 beats per minute.
