11 Maternal + Neonatal physiology Flashcards
Major respiratory changes at birth
Loss plscental gas exchange
initiation ventilation newborn lung
commencement pulmonary g echange
est FRC
Major CVS change birth
Loos umbil circ to placenta
CLose DV
Functional closure - FO
Close Duct arteriosus
Increase pulmonary circ
change skin flow - rleate expore - thermoreg role
change RBF - decrease Renal casvular resistance
How are the 2 changes related
Major change - cesastio umbil flow
Bombardment - external seosnry stimuli when born
Loss placenta gas exchange - asphyxia -
central periph chemo stim
stim resp cent - initiation lung ventilation
(passge thru birth canal compression throax- expel some airway fluid_
Increase LV w/ vent - decre resist ex alveolar vessel
rise alv p02- removal HPV
- large decrease PVR -increase pul flow
rise art po2 constric DA - promote pulm flow
Loss VR _ umb vein - close dv - rall RAP
LAP increase – increase pulom flow
reversal pressure gradient - - func close
remove R->L shunt 0 further promot lung flow
Fxn of placenta
Tranport immunlog metabolic Endcine (TIME)
Transport placental fuxn
Gas exchange
Nutrient
Waste remov
Aater and electro deliv
Tport other - drug
Heat
Immunlog
Metab
endo fxn
Protect infx
Rejection by mother - immune barier
Synth glycogen - cholesterol FA + Enzymes
4 Main homo
HCG HPL Oestriol Progesterone
other hormone - plac cotrico
What mech prevent immune rejection
Acquired defects in maternal immune competence
- Increase susc cert infx (poli hep a+b malaria_ - cell med immune
Trophblast -
dont express Class I / II MHC
CAnt present antigen -> lympho
ant be recog act cytoT
Where is progesterone produce - preg
1st tri- corpus letue in ovary
Ramneder - placenta
Processes - sub X placetna
1 Diffusion
- water, gases, lipid drug
2 Fac diffusion
3 ATP
Both- carrier protein
against conc grad, involve energy expend, sat at high conc, competiton
-> fts fac diffusion - not inolve energy expend
Pinocyto Large non lip sol / no carrier Globulin Plip lipopreot IgG - only class cross plcaetna - baby immune prote months
Foetal gluc level
Maternal level major factor -
What sub Carry placenta by active tpor
AA Ca Fe I Water sol vit
Role HCG
Main CL - early preg - sim LH
Major role HPL =
Also - Chorionic GH + structure sim to HGH
reg gluc fetus
alter mother metab - promote foetal growth (use more fat so more gluc for baby)
Insulin antagonist - secretion controll gluc level - if fall = hpl increase
increased liplysis - more gluc for baby
Neonatal temperature regulation
Thermoneutral zone?
Typical value neonate and aduult
Ambinet temp == maint body temp not increase heat prod
metab - aerobic - min heat prod = min o2 consump
32-34’C term neo
25-30 adults
Prem - higher
Why neonate susecptible heat stress
1 Large SA to Vol ratio
2 Thin Subcut tissue
3 Lim sweat capactiy
4 lim Ability control environment
Evap losses can be large
Higher BMR - more heat to lose to main equil
What mech used neo - control temp
changes position - change skin flow
behavioural - cry SKin vcon Non shiv thermo - brown fat Musc activity and shivery (poor develop) Movement = heat (may lose insulating mat)
Warmth
behavo - cry remove
skin vdil
sweat (lim - evap heat loss can double)
Brown fat
Heat prod by metab
WHite fat- store energy reserve
Bronw - fat glob and large mito
uncopling ox physo = more ehat generate -
Cell cont glycogen - gluc metab
Abdomen, large blood vessl, interscap base neck
2-6% tbw neonate
Total body heat production - double increase brown fat activity
Oxygen reqd
RIch symp innerv - b recp - increase lipolysis
sympathethic control
