Q

Defn of protracted labor vs arrest of labor

A

In active phase (6-10cm), less than 1cm in 2 hours

Usually bc of inadequate contractions (less frequent than every 2-3min)

Tx is oxytocin and amniotomy

Arrest is no cervical change over four hours with adequate contractions or 6hrs with inadequate contractions —>CS

A

Weight loss
Ovulation induction with clomiphene (binds estrogen rec so body sees less est and makes lh and fsh) and letrozole (aromatase inhib —> less est)

First trimester routine screening

A

Anemia, rh, pap, ua for asx bacteriuria (always treat with cephalosporin or amox and test of cure), hep b and rubella, syph, hiv, chlam/gon, bv, trich, tb, trisomy 21 (optional - papp, hcg, nuchal translucency, or cell free)

Q

Second trimester tests

A

Quad screen - afp, hcg, estriol, inhibin a

AFP up in ntd etc

AFP low in trisomies - 21 hcg and inhibin high; 18 all low

Can start with afp and then if abnormal confirm dates with us, if correct do amnio

17
Q

Third trimester tests

A

Diabetes (wk 24-28), anemia, indirect Coombs if rh neg (if they have anti d ig don’t give rhogam), gbs screen at 35-37 wks

18
Q

What do do with hiv in pregnancy

A

Triple therapy for mom
Zdv at delivery if viral load
No invasive stuff (eg fse, arom)
Vag delivery ok unless load high
6 wks zdv for baby for ppx
No BF

19
Q

Immediately deliver in hellp if

A

> 34 wks or severe maternal or fetal distress (eg placental abrupto on, liver infarction)

20
Q

FHR tracings

A

Normal hr 110-160
Accels with mvmt are normal
Early decels with contractions are normal
Late decels = uteroplac insuff
Variable decels = cord compression

21
Q

Meds for uterine atony

A

Carboprost (pg analog, ci in htn)
Miso (pg analog —> contractions)
Methylergo —> vasospasm (ci htn)

22
Q

What ocp can you use while breastfeeding?

A

Progestin only (estrogen decreases lactation plus increases hypercoag state so can’t use within three weeks of labor)

23
Q

Letrozole
Clomiphene
Leuprolide

A

-letrozole - inhibit androgen to est conversion —> less estrogen —> increased lh and fsh
- clomiphene binds est receptors in ht and pit —> receptor depletion and release from neg feedback —> release more lh and fsh
- leuprolide when given continuously down regulates pit gnrh receptors (it’s a gnrh agonist) —> low lh and fsh (menopause)

24
Q

Lcis vs dcis management

A

Dcis lumpectomy, radiation, tamox for five years to prevent invasive disease

Lcis just tamox for five years or surveillance, low malig potl

25
Q

Endometrial lining should be <__mm in postmen

A

4mm

Endometrial bx—> if cancer, do surgery staging (tah with bso, ln dissection and peritoneal washings)—> if mets etc add radiation and chemo

26
Q

Cervical cancer screening guidelines

A

Start at 21 regardless
If <30, every three years
Then every three with just cytology or every 5 with Hpv cotesting

27
Q

Contraindications to use of MTX

A

Renal or hepatic failure, high likelihood, treatment, failure, if high, hCG, or fetal heartbeat, breast-feeding, peptic ulcers, immuno deficiency, pulmonary disease

28
Q

Intrahepatic cholestasis of preg tx

A

Ursodeoxycholic acid, antihist, deliver at 37 weeks

29
Q

Ovarian hyperstim sx and cause

A

Cause - increased hcg from injection for induction causes vascular perm and fluid shifts
S/s- n/v/abd pain, ascites, resp distress, hemoconc, hypercoag, electrolyte imbalances, multi organ failure, doc

30
Q

Ruptured ovarian cyst presentation

A

Sudden onset, pelvic pain, following strenuous activity, with free fluid on ultrasound from hemoperitoneum, which also causes acute abdomen and anemia

31
Q

Ulipristal

A

Most effective oral emergency contraception

Copper iud most effective overall

32
Q

Granulosa cell tumor

A

Ovarian cancer that releases extra estrogen and inhibin, estrogen causes prolif of endometrium and can increase risk of endometrial cancer and cause bleeding etc

33
Q

Abnormal uterine bleeding after menopause, what do you do?

A

Endometrial bx for cancer

34
Q

Cephalohematoma vs caput succedaneum
