Q

why do we do EARLY epidural analgesia on pre-eclamptic pts

A
  1. to avoid GETA/instrumentation of possibly difficult airway
  2. placing epidural prior to drop in plt count
  3. provides benefical effects on uteroplacental perfusion
  4. helps to decrease BP and pain control

manage co-existing dz + anesthesia

43
Q

_____________ is when parturient has impaired hepatic metabolic activity that can lead to liver failure, DIC, hypoglycemia, and renal insufficiency

A

acute fatty liver of pregnancy

44
Q

______________ is a liver dz during pregnancy that is a medical emergency, need to deliver the bby due to high risk of maternal death

A

acute fatty liver of pregnancy

45
Q

with _______________ of pregnancy, the mom typically gets relief 2-3 weeks post delivery

A

intrahepatic cholestasis

46
Q

for the parturient who comes in for delivery on suboxone, what opioid would be best choice for them?
