a woman has had a prolonged second stage labor and extended time in stirrups. which condition should the rurse be especially alert for

Respuesta :

Answer:

What is Thrombophlebitis

Explanation:

The woman is at risk for thrombophlebitis due to the prolonged second stage of labor,  necessitating an increased amount of time in bed, and venous pooling that occurs when  the woman's legs are in stirrups for a long period of time. These findings are unrelated to  retained placental fragments, which would lead to uterine subinvolution, or hypertension.
