OBGYN Flashcards

1
Q

1st trimester testing options

A

To determine chromosomal abnormalities with advanced maternal age: chorionic villus sampling (10-13weeks) or amniocentesis (11-14weeks). AFP, estriol, HCG, and inhibin A serve similar purpose to screen for certain aneuploidy

To determine Rh isoimmunization: percutaneous umbilical blood sample

Q

Timeline for prenatal antibody screening

if unsensitized at 28wks, give rhogham (anti-D Rh immunoglobulin)

if baby found to be rh positive at delivery, give rhogham again

If mom sensitized, obtain antibody titer via indirect antiglobulin test and, if positive, do amnio to see if fetal RBCs Rh positive. If so, plan serial amniocenteses to assess fetal bili levels throughout pregnancy
