ABORTION
Nursing Care Plan
Nursing Interventions
• If the woman is bleeding profusely, lie her flat in bed on her side and use an external monitor to track uterine contractions and fetal heart rate.
• Measure the woman's intake and output to determine her renal function, as well as her vital signs to determine her maternal response to blood loss.

• The fetal heart rate should be 120-160 beats per minute and the pulse rate should be less than 100 beats per minute.
DefinitionAbortion is the termination of a pregnancy before the fetus reaches the viable age of more than 20 to 24 weeks of gestation or weighs more than 500 grams.
Pathophysiology
• Abnormal embryonic development, caused by a chromosomal aberration or a teratogenic factor, is the most prevalent cause of abortion
• Another common reason is aberrant zygote implantation, which occurs when endometrial development is inadequate or the zygote is implanted in an incorrect location.
• This would result in a lack of placental circulation development, resulting in insufficient fetal nourishment and, finally, an abortion.
