Q

Placenta abruptio / Placenta Previa Check

A

Use hands to Palpate the Uterus

Q

Stages of Birth

A

Onset of Labor → Longest stage, Latent(3cm) / Active(3~10cm)
Baby → 30~90min, Propulsive phase(Full dilation, descend to pelvic floor), Expulsion Phase(Ends with delivery of baby)

Q

Leopold Maneuvers

A
  1. Fungal grip = Palpate upper abdomen with both hands
  2. Umbilical grip = Palpate to localize fetal back
    One palm to fix, while the other explores one side then change
  3. Pelvic grip = 1st Pelvic grip, Determine what fetal part is lying above the inlet, grasp lower portion of abdomen just above the pubic symphysis with thumb and fingers of the right hand
  4. Pawlick grip = 2nd Pelvic grip, Face woman’s feet, attempt to locate fetus brow. Fingers of both hands moved gently down the sides of the uterus to pubis. The side where there is resistance to the descent of the fingers is greatest where the brow is located.

Q

Bethesda

A

Reporting Cervical or Vaginal Cytological Pap smear result
Important steps
1. Quality of the slide
2. Whether the result is positive or negative
3. Details of the slide(types of cells, LSIL/HSIL)

21
Q

Prenatal Care

A

Starts before conception

22
Q

Puerperium

A

Period beginning immediately after the birth of child extending for ~ 6w

23
Q

Statistics

A

Neonatal Mortality Rate - Number of Neonatal deaths during the 1st months/1000 live births
Early NMR in 1st week, Late NMR in 2~4th weeks
Perinatal Mortality Rate - Number of Perinatal deaths(Stillbirths + neonatal deaths from 22nd gestational week to 7th week postpartum) / 1000 total births

24
Q

To exclude ectopic pregnancy

A

Measure B-hCG
1000U/L Gestational sac, 7000U/L Yolk sac, 10000U/L Embryo
Brown spotting and abdominal pain indicates ectopic pregnancy
→ Check fallopian tubes
B-hCG doubles every 2nd day, if high but not doubled → Ectopic pregnancy

25
Q
