nut-like (95% effaced)

27
Q

if the cervix is paper thin what does it indicate?

A

Fully effaced

28
Q

what comes first in the effacement of a primigravid?

A

effacement muna bago dilatation

➜mauuna ang pagnipis bago bumuka

29
Q

what comes first in the effacement of a multipara patient?

A

➜sabay yung effacement and dilatation

➜mas mabilis ang panganganak

30
Q

Give the normal Findings for dilatation Individually

A

Index finger ➜ 1 cm

Middle finger ➜ 1.5 cm

31
Q

what is the measurement of dilatation kapag Nakapasok magisa index finger ?

A

1cm dilatation

32
Q

what is the measurement of dilatation kapag middle and index ang nakapasok?

A

1.5 cm / 2cm dilatation

33
Q

what is the measurement of dilatation if Middle & index mabubuka ng sobra sa cervix?

A

fully dilated (10 cm)

34
Q

during a contraction what happens to the membranes or bag of water?

A

they tend to bulge and are intact

35
Q

what is the interval for IE?

A

4 hours

36
Q

why is the interval for IE only 4 hours? Give 3 reasons

A

-Cervix namamaga= obstruction
-Prevent inflammation, trauma, injury of the cervix
-Dilates 1cm every hour during the active labor stage
Kunyari, done ka na with first IE
during active stage tas nakuhang
result 4 cm. After 4 hours nag-IE ka
ulit, dapat 8cm na kasi nga [ dilates 1cm/hour]

37
Q

Degree of descent ➜

A

station

38
Q

ischial spine

A

(landmark)

39
Q

Give the purpose of the middle and index finger in locating the ischial spine and determining the degree of descent of the presenting part

A

middle finger= ischial spine

index finger= kakapkap sa ulo

40
Q

what is the formation of the fingers if the presenting part is at 0 station?

A

pantay yung middle and index

41
Q

what is the formation of the fingers if the presenting part is at negative station

A

naka angat yung index finger

42
Q

what is the formation of the fingers if the presenting part is at positive station?

A

naka baba ung index finger

43
Q

what does it mean if the presenting part is at negative station?

A

above the ischial spine

44
Q

what does it mean if the presenting part is at positive station?

A

below the ischial spine

45
Q

what does it mean if the presenting part is floating?

A
  • presenting part not yet entered maternal true pelvis
  • above the ischial spine
  • movable
46
Q

what station is the presenting part in if its floating?

A

-3 to -4 station

47
Q

what does it mean if the presenting part is engaged?

A
  • presenting part has entered true maternal pelvis

- no longer movable

48
Q

what station is the presenting part in if its engaged?

A

-1 to -2 station

+1 to +2 station

49
Q

what does it mean if the presenting part is at 0 station?

A

presenting part is at the level of the ischial spine

50
Q

what does it mean if the presenting part is crowning?

A

fetal head/ presenting part is visible and is ready to come out

51
Q

what station is the presenting part in if its crowning?

A

+3 to +4 station

52
Q

what does it mean when we say “the presenting part is at -1 station?”

A

1 cm above ischial spine

53
Q

what does it mean when we say “the presenting part is at +3 station”?

A

3 cm below ischial spine

54
Q

give the 4 types of the quality of the cephalic presentation

A

a) Occiput or vertex ➜ fully flexed
b) Cinciput or straight ➜ military position
c) Brow ➜ brow

55
Q

what is the most favorable cephallic position for NSD?

Q

why is Occiput or vertex Most favorable cephallic position for NSD?

A
  • Very short suboccipitobregmatic diameter
  • the diameter of the fetal head is 9.5 cm which is very small meaning it can easily pass through the gynecoid pelvis of the mother
