Maternity Case 2: Olivia Jones (Complex)
Guided Reflection Questions
Opening Questions
How did the simulated experience of Olivia Jones’s case make you feel?
This virtual simulation helped me to feel slightly more prepared to care for a mother with preeclampsia. I
was lost initially because the maternity vsims are different than the med surg ones that we were doing
but as I learn where everything is and what needs to be done, I will be more comfortable. Although, I
was also stressed on what to do for the patient because she seemed to be in so much discomfort.
Describe the actions you felt went well in this scenario.
The actions I would say went well in this scenario were the assessments and the administration of the
magnesium sulfate after receiving new providers orders.
Scenario Analysis Questions1
EBP What are the indications that Olivia Jones’s preeclampsia has progressed?
Indications that her preeclampsia was progressing were her vital signs and her electrolytes. As well as
her liver function labs. More signs were the crackles in her lungs, and her epigastric pain that
was worsening.
PCC What should the priority teaching for Olivia Jones include?
Priority teaching for Olivia would be her prognosis and her plan of care for her stay. She should also
receive education on the medication she received, (magnesium sulfate) which I don’t think I did in the
simulation. She should also receive education on her risk for needing induction or a c-section.
PCC/I Olivia Jones was placed on magnesium sulfate for treatment of her preeclampsia. What are the
indications for this drug, and what should be taught to the patient regarding side effects?
This medication is indicated for treatment of preeclampsia. This medication can help to slow or prevent
the progression of the preeclampsia into eclampsia and seizures. Some side effects of this
medication include cardiac dysrhythmias and gastrointestinal upset, causing nausea vomiting
and diarrhea.
