Q

In order to pass the fetal breathing portion of a BPP the fetus must

A

At least one episode of sustained fetal breathing at least 30 seconds duration within a 30 minute span

19
Q

Fetal movements and pregnancy imply, normalcy of the fetal

20
Q

Fetal movements of the trunk, large limbs, swallowing face and hands are categorized as

21
Q

AFI is determined by

A

Measuring four quadrants in the deepest vertical pocket and totaling the values

22
Q

Oligohydramnios is diagnosed when the amniotic fluid and four quadrants measures

A

5.0 cm or less

23
Q

A normal BPP score is eight or 10. And equivocal score is.

A

Six or less

24
Q

A cardiotachometer meter records 

A

Patterns of fetal heart rate, including baseline and changes 

25
Acceleration is defined as
Increase of the fatal heart rate over the baseline of at least 15 bpm and lasting at least 15 seconds associated with fetal movement
26
Startle means
Quick generalized movement, always initiated and limbs, and sometimes spreading to neck and trunk
27
Normal fetal tone is
At least one episode of extension of extremities with return to position, reflection or extension of spine with return to position of election is visualized in the 30 minute observation.
28
AFI plus an NST is known as
Modified BPP
29
Regular patterns of fetal breathing are defined as
40 to 60 breaths per minute
30
BPP, AFI and NST testing typically occurs
Once weekly
31
Independently movements occur at
10 to 12 weeks
32
Fetal movement is mostly related to
Maturation of the CNS
33
Fetal breathing can be engaged with a real time scanner by viewing the fetal abdomen and longitudinal fashion as well as observing
Caudal cephalad kidney movement
34
What is least related to twinning?
Choriocarcinoma
35
Spontaneously occurring monozygotic twinning is noted to be influenced by
Random factors
36
A large for uterus may be a result of all except
Oligohydramnios
37
Increase maternal serum, alphabetic protein levels can be the result of all except
Uterine fibroids during pregnancy
38
What is not a risk factor for more multiple pregnancy?
Decreased morbidity
39
A monozygotic pregnancy with two spas into Amnions is labeled
DC/DA
40
I’m pregnancy consisting of to Amnion one chorion and one placenta is
MC/DA
