Which of the following assessment findings suspect the diagnosis of placenta previa?

Correct option is A

Ans. (a) Sol. Bright red coloured bleeding is a typical sign of placenta previa, where the placenta partially or completely covers the cervix, leading to painless bleeding.
Explanation of each option:
· (a) Bright red coloured bleeding – Correct. Placenta previa is associated with painless, bright red bleeding in the second or third trimester.
· (b) Tender uterus – Incorrect. Tenderness of the uterus is more commonly seen with placental abruption, not placenta previa.
· (c) Placenta in the upper segment – Incorrect. Placenta previa involves the placenta covering the lower segment of the uterus, not the upper segment.
