Final answer:

The term gravida refers to the number of pregnancies, regardless of the outcome.

Step-by-step explanation:

The term gravida refers to the number of pregnancies a woman has had, regardless of the outcome.

For example, if a woman has been pregnant three times, regardless of whether all three pregnancies resulted in children or not, her gravida would be three.

Gravida does not specifically refer to the number of stillbirths, hypertension during pregnancy, or the number of children delivered, as those are separate concepts.
