Practice Question
What is the correct term for a woman who has completed one pregnancy with a fetus (or fetuses) reaching the stage of fetal viability?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
Primipara
Rationale:
🟢 A primipara is a woman who has completed one pregnancy in which the fetus (or fetuses) reached viability, typically defined as 20 weeks of gestation or more, regardless of whether the infant was born alive or stillborn.
🟢 This term refers specifically to birth experience, not just pregnancy, and distinguishes women based on parity (number of pregnancies carried to viability).
🟢 Nulligravida refers to a woman who has never been pregnant.
🟢 Primigravida refers to a woman who is pregnant for the first time, not necessarily to viability yet.
🟢 Multipara indicates a woman who has completed two or more pregnancies to the stage of viability.
