A 25-year-old client is admitted to labor and delivery in active labor. This is her second pregnancy and she has a two-year old son at home. Which description of gravity and parity is correct for this client?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Gravida 2, Para 1: Gravida refers to the total number of pregnancies a client has had, including the current one, so this client is gravida 2. Para refers to the number of pregnancies carried to viability (≥20 weeks), so having one previous child makes her para 1. B. Gravida 2, Para 0: While the client is correctly identified as gravida 2, she has previously carried a pregnancy to viability, so para 0 is inaccurate. C. Gravida 1, Para 1: Gravida 1 would indicate this is the client’s first pregnancy, which is inconsistent with her history of one prior child. D. Gravida 1, Para 0: Both the gravida and para are incorrect because this is her second pregnancy and she has delivered one child previously.
