Cevap

The indicated preventive interventions are the administration of the tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis vaccine and screening for gestational diabetes mellitus.
The correct preventive interventions for a patient at 28 weeks of gestation include the administration of the tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine and screening for gestational diabetes mellitus. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends the Tdap vaccine during every pregnancy, optimally between 27 and 36 weeks of gestation, to provide passive immunity to the infant against pertussis. The US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends screening for gestational diabetes in asymptomatic pregnant persons at 24 to 28 weeks of gestation.
