Q

external cephalic version can be performed at __ weeks

A

> =37 weeks
to decrease risk of prematurity if complication occurs (eg contractions, fetal distress, premature rupture of membranes- all would require immediate delivery)

A
  • anticoagulation

- broad spectrum abx

258
Q

uterine villi attach directly to myometrium instead of decidua

259
Q

risk factors placenta accreta

A
  • prior c/s
  • hist D and C
  • age >35
260

outpt PID tx

A

ceftriaxone + doxy

263
Q

inpt PID tx

A

cefoxitin + doxy

264
Q

labetalol

  • what receptors it acts on
  • mechanism
  • time of onset
A

selective alpha-1
nonselective beta blocker

peripheral smooth muscle
metabolized in liver

IV- 10min
oral- 2h

265
Q

nifedipine

A

CCB inhibits calcium influx into vascular smooth muscle

met by liver

oral-10-15 minutes

266
Q

hydralazine

  • MOA
  • time of onset
A

directly dilates peripheral vessels

alters intracellular calcium release
inhibits smooth muscle calcium influx -> inhibt phosphorylation of myosin protein -> incr HR, SV, CO

met in liver

IV onset- 10-20 minutes

267
Q

methyldopa MOA

A

chronic HTN in pregnancy

alpha2 agonist

268
Q

what type of contraception should be avoided postpartum and why

A

avoid estrogen containing contraceptives <1month pp as it increases risk of thromboembolism

269
Q

how does breastfeeding cause hypoestrogenism

A

inc prolactin inhibits GnRH release

patients may thus experience dyspareunia -> tx = nonhormonal lubricants, moisturizers

270
Q

when should benign appearing endometrial cells on pap be worked up with endometrial sampling?

A

premenopausal w/ AUB or risk for endometrial hyperplasia
(otherwise not reported under age <=45 bc so common esp in first 10 days of period)

postmenopausal

271
Q

how can PCOS cause infertility?

A

high androgens -> lots of peripheral andorgen conversion to estrones

high estrone -> high freq, short interval GnRH pulses

such GnRH pulses favor LH secretion from ant pit = LH/FSH imbalance = lack of LH surge = follicle fails to mature and release oocyte

= anovulation

272
Q

definition postpartum urinary retention

A

can’t void >=6h after vaginal delivery or >=6 after foley removal after c/s

273
Q

cause of postpartum urinary retention (2)

A
  1. Perineal trauma (prolonged second stage labor and/or perineal lac) –> perineal nerve injury

damaged pudendal nerve > decr voiding sensation and cause external urethral sphincter dysfunction

  1. Bladder Atony. Epidural anesthesia = reduced sensory and motor spinal cord impulses –> suppress micturition reflex and decr detrusor tone
274
Q

management postpartum urinary retention

A

intermittent urethral catheterization + reassurance (usu self limited and resolves <1 wk)

275
Q

gestational DM target

  • fasting
  • 1 hour postprand

276
Q

treatment gestation DM

A

firstline: dietary mod

2nd line: insulin, metformin

277
Q

management of hypothyroidism in pregnancy

A

in normal pregnancy, estrogen increases thyroid binding globulin = need more thyroid hormone to saturate the binding sites

also get an increase in thyroxine production as hCG stim TSH receptors (have sim alpha subunit)

==> incr total T4 but same free T4

BUT in pts with pre-existing hypothyroidism, they can’t increase thyroxine prod appropriately, so must increase thyroxine dosage and adjust q4 weeks based on labs

278
Q

how can oxytocin cause hyponatremia

A

oxytocin has similar structure as ADH

elevated oxytocin can stim renal collecting ducts to increase free water absorption

279
Q

thyroid labs in normal first trimester pregnancy

A
incr total T4
incr or unchanged total T3
decr TSH (suppressed by bhCG and increased T4)
280
Q

A

can be asx

if sx:

  • fever
  • diffuse nonpruritic maculopapular rash that resolves spontaneously
281
Q

fetal findings toxo

A

T gondii preferentially destroys fetal neural tissue

  • -> BL ventriculomegaly, intracranial calcification
  • ascities, hepatosplenomegaly, fetal growth restriction
282
Q

causes symmetric vs asymmetric fetal growth restriction

A

Symmetric- chromosomal abnormality, congenital infection

asymmetric- tihngs that cause placental insuff; maternal malnutrition

283
Q

causes symmetric vs asymmetric fetal growth restriction

A

Symmetric- chromosomal abnormality, infection

asymmetric- tihngs that cause placental insuff

284
Q

how preeclampsia can cause pulm edema

A

general vasospasm (htn) = incr afterload

also, decr albumin, decr renal function, and incr vascular permeability

285
Q

normal renal lab changes in pregnancy and why

A

decr serum Cr

Renal blood flow (perfusion) and GFR increase in pregnancy. same prod of BUN and Cr but serum levels are decreased due to increased GFR

286
Q

why increased urinary protein excretion in pregnancy

A

greater renal basement membrane permeability

up to 300mg/day
so UA with trace protein is normal in pregnancy

287
Q

pt with elevated BP on OCPs, what should you do

A

stop the OCPs; can cause elevated BP and sometimes overt HTN

?mechanism, possibly estrogen increases hepatic angiotensinogen synth and other effects on renin-angiotensin system

risk of htn increases with duration of OCP use

288
Q

pt with elevated BP on OCPs, what should you do

A

stop the OCPs; can cause elevated BP and sometimes overt HTN

?mechanism, possibly estrogen increases hepatic angiotensinogen synth and other effects on renin-angiotensin system

289
Q

risks of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy

A

preterm delivery
neonatal resp distress syndrome

290
Q

management of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy

A
  • deliver at 37wks
  • frequent antepartum nonstress tests

291
Q

why does intrahepatic cholestasis usu occur in 3rd trimester

A

incr Estrogen and Progesterone –> hepatobiliary tract stasis and decreased bile excretion

292
Q

characteristics of postpartum psychosis

A
  • depressed and/or manic mood
  • severe insomnia
  • agitation
  • disorganized behavior

293
Q

betamethason can be given __ weeks to prevent neonatal resp distress syndrome

A

<37 weeks gestation

294
Q

bethanechol

A

stimulates M receptors, increasing bladder contractility

treats urinary retention (can tx overflow incont due to urinary retention)

295

  • components
  • meaning if abnormal
A

assess fetal oxygenation thru ultrasound observation and the nonstress test

no descent after 4 or more horus of pushing in a primip with epidural (3 without)

or 3 or more horus in a multigravida with epidural (2 wituhout)

311
Q

cause and symptoms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

A

bhCG (used to stim mult ovarian follicles) causes exaggerated ovarian response and overexpression of VEGF -> incr vasc permeability and capillary leakage -> third spacing and VEGF leakage into intraperitoneal cavity -> ascites and abdominal distension

1-2 wks after ovulatio induction

  • n/v/abd pain
  • pleural effusions
  • intravasc vol depletion (tachy, hemoconc, leukocytosis) due to third spacing, cab -> thromboemoblism, renal failure
