Postpartum Care

This Simulated Patient Encounter maps to Scenario MAT 19 – Stacey Downes – Postpartum Hemorrhage Uterine Atony on the Elsevier Evolve Platform

Stacey Downes, a 34-year-old Caucasian female, delivered an 8 lb 5 oz baby girl one hour ago following 28 hours of labor. Her prenatal course was unremarkable, except for the development of polyhydramnios at 37 weeks. During this scenario, learners must assess and manage a patient’s postpartum care while respecting their intervention-limiting cultural values.

This case can be purchased separately or as part of Elsevier’s SLS for RN Bundle
