REVIEW UNIT 2 EXAM
Bladder Hypotonia:
Occurs when your bladder muscles lose their ability to hold your urine.
You are not longer able to sense when your bladder is full or empty it completely, so it over fills and urine leaks out.
Is also called flaccid or hypotonic bladder.
Urinary retention can also result from bladder hypotonia after childbirth because the weight of the gravid uterus no longer limits bladder capacity.
Assess the maternal bladder (extremely important)
N.I: Kegel exercises.
Diastasis recti abdominal (abdominal separation) the separation between the two rectus abdominis muscles that can occur from pregnancy.
N.I: Nurses should teach them to maintain correct posture when performing activities such as lifting, carrying, and bathing the baby for at least 12 weeks after birth.
Performing modified sit-ups during this time is beneficial in helping to strengthen the abdominal muscles.
Afterpains:
Afterpains are intermittent uterine contractions that occur during the process of involution. Patients often describe the sensation as discomfort similar to menstrual cramps.
Also defined as belly cramps that a postpartum mother feels as her uterus shrinks back to its regular size after pregnancy.
Multiparas and patients with uterine overdistention (e.g., large baby, multifetal gestation, or hydramnios) are more likely to experience afterpains because of the continuous pattern of uterine relaxation and vigorous contractions.
Afterbirth pain is often severe for 2 to 3 days after childbirth
