OB/GYN uWISE Flashcards
causes of breech presentation
prematurity multiple gestation genetic disorders hydrocephalus polyhydro fibroids anencephaly uterine anomalies
time frames of “prolong latent phase” When should you artificially rupture membranes?
nullip >20 hours multip >14 hours tx: rest or augmentation do no rupture in latent phase because increased risk of infection
how does cervical change typically prgoress in the active phase?
1 cm for nullips 1-2cm for multips
LOTS of bleeding and disproportionate cervical exam change during active phase, think…
abruption
whats in FFP?
fibrinogen, V, VIII
chorioamnionitis association
PROM **also think of any bacterial infection for this, like BV
causes of preterm labor
IDEOPATHIC uterine distortion dehydration
list three major drugs that should be given in preterm labor before 32 weeks
bethamesasone nifedipine –> give time for steroids to work ampicillin –> for GBS
if fetal heart tones are baseline 150 with a category 1 tracing do you need to do a contraction stress test for preterm labor?
NO, category I means they are contracting with variability and accels
contraindications for: -terbutaline -mag sulfate -indomethacin
-terbutaline in diabetics, or over 48 hours -mag sulfate in myastehnia gravis (resp depression) -indo after 33 weeks for closure of ductus
effects of bethasmesasone
-lung development/ decreased RDS -decreased ICH -decreased NEC
do you test vaginal mucus or cervical mucus for ferning?
VAGINAL cervix has higher false positive rates
whats the benefits in tocolytics before 32 weeks?
time to administer steroids NOT necessarily to wait for fetal lung maturity, because don’t wan tto use for >48hours
what antibiotic regimen has been shown to increase latency 5-7 days in PPROM?
amp + erythro
use of 17-a-hydroxyprogesterone
prevent PROM fom 16-36 weeks
postpartum fever differential
mastitis cystitis endometritis infection
most common site of fever on postpartum day 1?
LUNGS, esp if patient had anesthesia for csection, think aspiration PNA
associations for postterm pregnancy
placental sulfatase deficiency anencephaly fetal adrenal hypoplasia inaccurate dates
