DDX of AP:

A
  • PP
    -Vasa previa –painless vaginal bleeding with rapid fetal compromise and in utero demise.
    -Cervical laceration – More likely in the setting of preterm labor with a cerclage in place.
    -Preterm labor – Will have cervical dilation present.
    -PPROM – Will have positive pooling of amniotic (bloody or nonbloody) fluid in the vagina on speculum exam, positive ferning test, and decreased amniotic fluid levels on ultrasound.

surgical Interventions for uterine inversion:

A

*Huntington procedure a combined effort is made to reposition the uterus by simultaneously pushing upward from below and pulling upward from above. Application of atraumatic clamps to each round ligament and upward traction may be helpful or placing a deep traction suture in the inverted fundus or grasping it with tissue forceps may be of aid.
* Haultain incision: If a constriction ring still prohibits repositioning, a sagittal surgical cut is made
posteriorly through the muscular ring to release it.

58
Q

Purpura Fulminans

A

This severe—often lethal—form of consumptive coagulopathy is caused by microthrombi in small blood vessels leading to skin necrosis and sometimes vasculitis. Debridement of large areas of skin over the extremities and buttocks frequently requires treatment in a burn unit. Purpura fulminans usually complicates sepsis in women with heterozygous protein C deficiencies and low protein C serum levels (Levi, 2010b). Note that homozygous protein C or S deficiency results in fatal neonatal purpura fulminans.

59
Q

Amniotic fluid embolism management

A

CPR, If resuscitation is successful, hemodynamic instability is common in survivors. Both fever and hyperoxia will worsen ischemia—reperfusion injury to the brain, and thus both are avoided. A suitable goal for temperature is 36°C and for mean arterial pressure is 65 mm Hg (Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, 2016). Additional supportive care measures such as intubation are usually necessary. During the phase of right ventricular failure, inotropic agents such as dobutamine may improve right heart output, and later systemic hypotension should be treated with vasopressors such as norepinephrine. Excess fluid administration is discouraged due to risks of worsening dilation of an already engorged right ventricle, which may cause right-sided myocardial infarction and displacement of the interventricular septum. Beginning either immediately after cardiopulmonary collapse or during the ensuing phases of injury, a coagulopathy develops in most cases from activation of factor VII and X. This may be exacerbated by ongoing hemorrhage. A common source of obstetrical bleeding is uterine atony. Therefore, immediate evaluation of coagulation parameters is prudent with concurrent clinical management of bleeding.

60
Q

65
Q

Vulvar hematomas may be located in one of two anatomic areas

A

anterior triangle: When the hematoma occurs anterior to the superficial transverse perineal muscles, the perineal membrane (previously called the urogenital diaphragm) and Colles’ fascia prevent the extension of bleeding.
- posterior triangle: When posterior to the superficial transverse perineal muscles, it is the anal fascia that prevents extension.

A

In myomectomy The choice of Pfannenstiel incision is typically appropriate for uteri 14 weeks’ size or smaller. Larger uteri usually require a midline vertical abdominal incision.

69
Q

Vasopressin. 8-Arginine vasopressin (Pitressin) dose used for myomectomy

A

Each vial of Pitressin is standardized to contain 20 pressor unit/mL, and dose used for myomectomy are 20 U diluted in 30 to 100 mL of saline (Frishman. 2009). Vasopressin is typically injected along the planned serosal incision(s). The plasma half life of this agent is 10 to 20 minutes. For this reason. injeclion of vasopressin is ideally discontinued 20 minutes prior to uterine repair to allow evaluation of bleeding from myometrial incisions (Hutchins, 1996).

A

rFVIIa will not be effective if the plasma fibrinogen level is <50 mg/dL or the platelet count is <—-/µL.

75
Q

tranexamic acid (TXA) mechanism of action

A

tranexamic acid (TXA) reversibly binds to plasminogen, and thereby blocks plasmin binding to fibrin. Fibrin strands are not broken, and a clot persists to slow down bleeding.

76
Q

gravidas with hemorrhage following vaginal birth or during cesarean delivery, mortality rates from obstetrical hemorrhage were — percent in those given a 1-g intravenous TXA dose plus traditional care for bleeding. This rate was statistically lower than the —-percent death rate in women given traditional care alone (WOMAN Trial, 2017)

A

gravidas with hemorrhage following vaginal birth or during cesarean delivery, mortality rates from obstetrical hemorrhage were 1.2 percent in those given a 1-g intravenous TXA dose plus traditional care for bleeding. This rate was statistically lower than the 1.7-percent death rate in women given traditional care alone (WOMAN Trial, 2017)

77
Q

Most investigators define ARDS as

A

radiographically documented pulmonary infiltrates, a ratio of arterial oxygen tension to the fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2:FiO2) <200, and no evidence of heart failure (Baron, 2018).

78
Q

Three stages describe ARDS development

A

First, the exudative phase follows widespread injury to the alveolar epithelium and to the microvascular endothelium, including the pulmonary vasculature. This endotheliopathy results in increased pulmonary capillary permeability, surfactant loss or inactivation, diminished lung volume, and vascular shunting that creates arterial hypoxemia. Next, the proliferative phase usually begins approximately 7 days later and lasts up to 21 days. Most patients recover during this phase. Last, the fibrotic phase results from healing. Despite these insults, the long-term prognosis for pulmonary function is surprisingly good

97
Q

Five characteristic sonographic findings suggest PAS:

A

(1) placental lacunae; (2) thinning of the retroplacental myometrium; (3) disruption of the bladder-uterine serosal interface; (4) bridging vessels from the placenta to the bladder-serosal interface; and (5) placental bulge that pushes outward and distorts the contour of the uterus

98
Q

Delivery Timing

A

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (2018; 2021) recommends
individualization and suggests delivery between 340/7 and 356/7 weeks’ gestation. They cite a decision-analysis study that justifies elective delivery without fetal lung maturity testing after 34 completed weeks (Robinson, 2010). The Society for Maternal–Fetal Medicine (2018) recommends delivery between 34 and 37 weeks. Two earlier surveys found that most practitioners do not deliver these women until 36 weeks or later

99
Q

How to determined blood loss if inaccurately estimated?

A

After pregnancy hypervolemia is lost at delivery, blood loss can be estimated by calculating 500 mL loss for each 3 volume percent drop in hematocrit. Its nadir depends on the speed of resuscitation with intravenous crystalloids and blood products. With ongoing blood loss, the real-time hematocrit is at its maximum whenever measured in the delivery, operating, or recovery room

Q

Cervical Laceration’s when to repair

A

Superficial lacerations of the cervix can be seen on close inspection in more than half of all vaginal deliveries. Most of these measure <0.5 cm and seldom require repair.

101
Q

If “low placenta” was diagnosed at 20 week ultrasound. How often is this found and what is the likelihood of persistent placenta previa at term? How can one predict the likelihood of previa at term?

A

Less than 20% (12%) are left overlapping the cervix at term
 Placental migration occurs as the lower uterine segment develops
 Unlikely to persist if not overlapping or less than 10mm covering the os
 More likely to persist if the placenta is covering 15-25mm or more
 Overlap of 20mm or more at any time in T3 is predictive of need for C-section
