When preparing a multigravid client who has undergone evacuation of a hydatidiform mole for discharge, the nurse explains the need for follow-up care and the client is said to understand it when she says that she is at risk for developing choriocarcinoma.
<h3>What is Choriocarcinoma?</h3>
This is defined as a medical condition which is characterized by a fast-growing cancer that occurs in a woman's uterus. This type of cancer affects the placenta in most situations and it is the organ which supplies food and other nutrients from the woman to the fetus.

When administering adenosine, the nurse must inject it through the IV push route.
Explanation:
Adenosine belongs to the drug class of antidysrhythmics and hence proper care and monitoring should be taken to avoid any adverse or side effects while or after administering the dose. Adenosine should be injected only via the IV route. The injection should be made close to an IV site, so as to flush each time with NS. The patient’s heart conditions should be monitored continuously on an ECG monitor and blood pressure machine. The dosage levels should match with the age appropriately. Adverse reactions of adenosine may include transient arrhythmias, bronchospasms, dyspnea etc.
