Ectopic pregnancies happen when the blastocyst implants outside of the desired uterine lining area. To treat this complication, they have to go in and do a laprascopic removal of the fallopian tube. If a patient had a complication during pregnancy, I would know what to do, but it would not be an automatic seamless response.

care and complications associated with pregnancy Description of One Significant Learning Experience in this Course
In class we learned about the
complications that can arise during conception and the reproductive process in women, one in particular called ectopic pregnancy.
What I Learned
I learned that ectopic
pregnancies happen when the blastocyst implants outside of the desired uterine lining area, the fallopian tubes being the most common area. I learned the signs and symptoms that arise from an ectopic pregnancy include: lower abdominal pain (right or left sided if in one of the fallopian tubes), vaginal spotting, and if the fallopian tube has ruptured from the growing of the blastocyst, you will also experience sharp shoulder pain. To treat this complication, if the fallopian tube is still intact, you can take an oral cytotoxic medication to stop the growth of the baby, but if the fallopian tube is ruptured, they have to go in and do a laprascopic removal of the fallopian tube.
Proficiency Rating
I would rate my proficiency with
complications associated in pregnancy as good, because while I have learned all of the nursing theory about complications associated with pregnancy, I have not had the
chance to use my knowledge
and apply it to real nursing care. If I had a patient with a complication during pregnancy, I would know what to do as the theory teaches us, but I would not say it would be an automatic seamless response as you do not encounter ectopic pregnancies or other pregnancy complications every day.
Why It was Meaningful/
Significant
It is meaningful because one
day I do want to become a maternity nurse, but even every nurse should know the complications of pregnancy as they can run into a pregnant person not only on a maternity ward, but they could be in on a surgery or medicine unit as well for other reasons. All nurses should know what to do if they encounter a women with a complication of pregnancy, as some of the complications can be detrimental to the mother and babe and nurses should be able to know the signs to prevent these complications from seriously harming the mother or child.
How I will Apply this
Learning in Nursing Practice
I will apply knowing the
complications of pregnancy into my future nursing care by asking my pregnant patients specific questions about pain, contractions or bleeding, taking their blood pressure, running urine tests, performing fundal height measurements, taking the mothers weight to ensure they care not experiencing any pregnancy complications.
