When talking with a pregnant client who is experiencing aching swollen, leg veins, the nurse would explain that this is most probably the result of which of the following?

• thrombophlebitis
• pregnancy induced hypertension
• pressure on blood vessels from the enlarging uterus
• the force of gravity pulling down on the uterus -

Answer-D - Explanation Pressure of the growing uterus on blood vessels results in an increased risk for venous stasis in the lower extremities. Subsequently, edema and varicose vein formation may occur. Thrombophlebitis is an inflammation of the veins due to thrombus formation. Pregnancy- induced hypertension is not associated with these symptoms. Gravity plays only a minor role with these symptoms.
