3 meds that must NOT be used to tx HTN in pregnancy

A

ACE
ARBs
Diuretics

41
Q

normal range of fetal HR

A

110-160bpm

42
Q

when does fetal quickening happen?

around 20 wks

43
Q

you give RhoGAM when mom is ____ with ____ fetus; when? (gestational age & 2 other situations)

basically anytime fetal blood would be in contact with maternal blood

44
Q

normal kick-counts is ____ every hour

A

10x an hr is reassuring

45
Q

when would you turn to the BPP in 3rd trimester?

A

if non reactive NST

46
Q

positive NST is…

A

2 acceleration in 20 mins
this is good

47
Q

reassuring vs NOT reassuring BPP score

A

8-10 is reassuring
0-4 is not reassuring and means to move to delivery

48
Q

what does HELLP mean?

A

Hemolysis
Elevated LFT
Low Platelets

would see anemia, RUQ pain, low plts, abnormal blood counts, DIC

49
Q

6 complications associated with GDM

A

congenital anomalies
SAB & stillbirth
macrosomia
polyhydramnios
placental abruption
neonatal hypoglycemia (rebound)!

50
Q

oligohydramnios is associated with GDM or HTN d/o? which one?

A

HTN d/o

51
Q

7 things associated with postpartum hemorrhage

A
  • **prolonged labor
  • precipitous labor
  • pre-eclampsia
  • multiple gestation**
  • retained placenta
  • operative delivery
    * uterine atony is underlying!
52
Q

is maternal obesity associated with preterm labor?

A

No! its actually more associated with underweight

53
Q

underlying cause of preterm labor and 4 examples

A
  • inflammation
  • smoking, short interpregnancy interval (<12-18 months), UTI/genital tract infxn, periodontal dz
54
Q

placental abruption is associated with (5)

A
  • Gestational HTN
  • prior placental abruption
  • multiparity
  • smoking, cocaine
  • trauma
55
Q

pregnant pt close to term shows up with bleeding, after fall; notice hard cord like belly & tenderness

A

placentall abruption

56
Q

2 primary factors in evaluating labor progression

A

cervial effacement & dilation

57
Q

effacement vs dilation

A

effacement: cervix length; 0% is thick and long & 100% is thin
dilation is opening; can go up to 10cm

58
Q

early (latent) < 4cm
transition 4-6 cm
late (active) 6-10cm

A

2nd stage

61

after delivery youre waiting for the placenta and can give pitocin or tug on umbilicus to help

A

3rd stage

62

4th stage

63
Q

what is labor dystocia

failure to progress

64
Q

4 Ps of labor dystocia

A
  • Power of contraction
  • Passenger size
  • Pelvis size
  • Presentation/Position
65
Q

most favorable presentation for vaginal delivery

A

occiput-anterior (back of head facing moms belly)

66
Q

2 worse positions that require c section

transverse lie
placenta premia (placenta blocking opening)

67

A

focus on support, education and management considerations

68
Q

early decelarations indicates

A

head compression (vagal response)

69
Q

late decelerations indicate

A

uteroplacental insufficiency causing fetal MI

A

cord compression;

71
Q

IV sedation vs epidural

A
  • sedation takes edge off and helps get through to pushing stage; dont give too close to delivery
  • epidural takes away pain & slows labor; has higher rate of vaccuum, forceps, fever but no diff in c-section rates
