Q

Should HIV infected mom deliver vaginally or via csx

A

Depends on viral load

A

Preterm labor

25
Most common organism responsible for chorioamnionitis without membrane rupture
Listeria
26
What is the most common abnormality on fetal heart rate tracing seen in PROM
Variable decelerations due to oligohydramnios causing insufficient fluid to buffer the cord
27
Management of Parvovirus in pregnant mom
- Fetal US every 1-2 weeks for 8-10 weeks after a positive IgM assay - Doppler assessment to assess for fetal anemia - If evidence of hydrops of anemia, fetal blood sampled to obtain hematocrit for fetal transfusion

34
Tx of mastitis in a breast feeding mom
Antibiotics Mom can continue breast feeding
35
Why does it take a while for mothers to produce milk after delivery
Needs time for estrogen and progesterone levels to decrease in order to remove the inhibitory effect on prolactin
36
Most common organism in mastitis
Strep
37
What hormones are responsible for milk production vs. milk ejection

43
How do you diagnose chorio
``` ♣ Maternal fever PLUS >/=1 of the following: • Fetal tachycardia (>160) • Maternal leukocytosis • Purulent amniotic fluid • Maternal tachycardia (>100) • Uterine fundal tenderness ```
44
Treatment of chorio

45
Maternal complications of chorio
postpartum hemorrhage, endometritis
46
Neonatal complications of chorio
♣ Neonatal: preterm birth, pneumonia, encephalopathy
47
What are the components of biophysical profile (BPP)
Nonstress test plus US of the following: - Amniotic fluid volume - Fetal breathing movement - Fetal tone - Fetal movement
48
