OBG 2 Flashcards
magnesium should be monitored for signs of toxicity (somnolence, areflexia, respiratory suppression).
What pts are at increased risk for toxicity?
renal insufficiency
(bc magnesium is excreted by the kidneys)
Hypocalcemia is a potential adverse effect
Pregnant pt w/cc of facial hair & acne (Hyperandrogenism/Virilization)
Solid unilateral ovarian mass
Sertoli-Leydig Tumor
Surgery required (2nd trimester or postpartum)
*High fetal virilization risk
Pregnant pt w/cc of facial hair & acne (Hyperandrogenism/Virilization)
Cystic, bilateral ovarian masses
Theca lutein cyst
Spontaneous regression of masses after delivery (observe)
*Low fetal virilization risk
Pregnant pt w/cc of facial hair & acne (Hyperandrogenism/Virilization)
Solid, unilateral/bilateral ovarian masses
Luteoma
Spontaneous regression of masses after delivery (observe)
*High fetal virilization risk
Pregnant pt w/cc of facial hair & acne (Hyperandrogenism/Virilization)
No ovarian mass on exam
Placental Aromatase Deficiency
Resolution of maternal symptoms after delivery (observe)
*High fetal virilization risk
Used to monitor fetal status in pregnancies complicated by maternal hypertension or fetal growth restriction.
Umbilical artery Doppler ultrasound
Low/↓ Maternal serum α-fetoprotein on quad screen indicates what?
Aneuploidies (eg, trisomy 18 & 21)
High/↑ Maternal serum α-fetoprotein on quad screen indicates what(3)?
Neural tube defects (anencephaly, open spina bifida)
Ventral wall defects (omphalocele, gastroschisis)
Multiple gestation
(these pts require fetal ultrasound)
Anti-D immune globulin (RhoGAM) is indicated in unsensitized, Rh-negative women at __ weeks gestation or within 72 hours of any procedure or incident in which there is any possibility of feto-maternal blood mixing.
28
Pruritus that is most severe on the palms with no associated rash occuring in the third trimester is consistent with what diagnosis?
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP)
s/t ↑ estrogen & progesterone levels causing hepatobiliary tract stasis and decreased bile excretion HENCE elevated total bile acids (≥10 µmol/L) which is diagnostic.
Management of Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) includes:

<34
magnesium sulfate is administered for fetal neural protection to patients at __ weeks gestation
<32
