Mock Exam Part 2, #76-90 Flashcards
a surgical emergency that requires prompt diagnosis to preserve ovarian function
Ovarian torsion
Risk factors for ovarian torsion
- pregnancy due to enlarged corpus luteum
- presence of large ovarian cysts or tumors
- polycystic ovaries
- chemical induction of ovulation (ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome)
- tubal ligation
most common ultrasonographic finding associated with torsion
ovary >4 cm in size due to cyst, tumor, or edema
most common CT finding of ovarian torsion
an enlarged ovary >4.0 cm
Ovarian torsion may occur at any age in both pre- and postmenarchal girls but is increased in
One year old
Menarche
Pregnancy
Major Risk Factors for Ectopic Pregnancy
Si ECTA, isang prosti, nagka-STI at PID, mahilig siyang manigarilyo. Nabuntis siya kahit may IUD, ectopic pregnancy, pero nagpa-abort at uminom ng Misoprostol. Ayaw na niya mabuntis kaya nagpa-Ligate,
Noong 35 to 44y/o siya, gusto na niya magka-anak, kaya nagpa-IVF siya
Mass and free fluid UTZ finding has ____% risk for Ectopic Pregnancy
97%
Hepatorenal free fluid in UTZ has ____% Risk of ectopic pregnancy
100%
First-line treatment for asymptomatic bacteriuria and simple cystitis is
either
amoxicillin, 500 milligrams PO two to three times daily for 3 to 7 days
Or
cephalexin, 500 milligrams two to four times daily for 3 to 7 days
most common non- sinus tachycardia in women of childbearing age
Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia SVT
most common cause of pregnancy-related acute myocardial infarction
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection
leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in industrialized nations as well as developing countries
Venous thromboembolism includes deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism
DVT in pregnant women is more often left-sided and is more commonly found in
proximal iliofemoral veins
What is the first-line imaging technique in DVT?
Compression duplex US with color flow Doppler
first- line diagnostic test of choice for Pulmonary Embolism in pregnant
CT pulmonary angiography
Treatment of venous thromboembolism in pregnancy
unfractionated heparin
or
low-molecular-weight heparin
Neither crosses the placental barrier
most common cause of vaginitis in acutely symptomatic women
BACTERIAL VAGINOSIS
second most common cause of infectious vaginitis
Candida
Chronic hypertension in pregnancy is defined as a
- systolic blood pressure _______ mm Hg or a
- diastolic blood pressure _______ mm Hg
- that existed ___________
- is diagnosed _____________
- persists longer than ___________
- systolic blood pressure ≥140 mm Hg or a
- diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg
- that existed prior to pregnancy,
- is diagnosed before the 20th week of gestation,
- persists longer than 12 weeks after delivery
Severe chronic hypertension is systolic blood pressure _________ or diastolic presure _________
> 160 mm Hg
> 110 mm Hg
is the first-line agent for chronic hypertension in pregnancy.
Labetalol
starting dose of 100 mg PO twice a day, and the usual maintenance dose is 200 to 400 mg PO twice a day
Gestational hypertension is
hypertension present only after the 20th week of pregnancy or in the *immediate postpartum ** without proteinuria**
Admission considerations for tubo-ovarian abscess
Common Complications Related to Major Gynecologic- Abdominal Surgery
Acute mastitis and abscesses in nonlactating women are often seen in women with
Diabetes
Obesity
Smoker
Severe features of preeclampsia
- Systolic blood pressure ≥160 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure ≥110 mm Hg on 2 occasions at least 4 hours apart while the patient is on bed rest
- Thrombocytopenia (<100,000 platelets/mL)
- Impaired liver function (liver enzymes levels increased to twice normal)
- persistent right upper quadrant/epigastric pain unresponsive to medication and not accounted for by a different diagnosis)
- Progressive renal insufficiency (serum creatinine >1.1 mg/dL or doubling of creatinine level without other renal disease)
- Pulmonary edema
- Cerebral or visual disturbances
Remarks on pelvic examination for patients undergoing fertility treatment
defer the pelvic examination until consulting with the gynecologist, due to possibility of rupturing enlarged ovarian follicles
Expected color changes in nitrazine paper test in testing for amniotic fluid
Amniotic fluid (pH 7.0 to 7.4) will turn the paper to dark blue.
Vaginal fluid (pH 4.5 to 5.5), the paper remains yellow
Flase positive in presence of blood, lubricant, Trichomonas vaginalis, semen, or even cervical mucus
Following laparoscopy, some patients experience shoulder or upper abdominal pain due to the presence of carbon dioxide bubbles trapped between the liver and diaphragm. This discomfort persists in a signifi cant percentage of patients even 48 hours post-surgery. What additional symptoms and signs should you particularly concerned about when assessing post-laparoscopy patients with such pain and tenderness?
Fever, nausea, vomiting, and altered bowel sounds
