  • 2nd pregnancy
  • hx of ventouse for fetal distress
  • Epidural
  • Full dilataion 1 hour, passive 2nd stae
  • Pushin 90 minutes
  • No signs of birth
  • she is well, contractions strong 4/10 minutes
  • FHR normal
  • Most appropriate step
    A- commence IV oxytocin
    B- Operative vaginal delivery after 30 minutes if no change
    C- Operative vaginal delivery after 60 minutes if no change
    D- discuss operative vainal delivery immediately
    E- encourage direct pushing in lithotomy
A

B
She is a G2
Time allowed -3 hours
Including passive stage, time elapsed is 2 and a half hours
So remaining time is 30 min.
For Primi it would be four hours so 60 min option would be right

When considering the administration of blood and blood products which is correct?
A. FFPs contain more fibrinogen than cryoprecipitate
B. FFP is derived from whole blood and doesn’t contain clotting factors
C. FFP is stored at -30”c and needs to be defrosted thoroughly prior to administration
D. A PT & APTT ratio: below 1.5 associated with increased risk of a clinical coagulopathy
E. A unit of concentrated red cells increases hematocrit by 8%

A

Key is C
- PT/APTT ratio above 1.5 is ass with inc risk of coagulopathy.

  • Cryoprecipitate contain more fibrinogen than ffp and is used to correct hypo fibrinogenemia
  • FFP is derived from whole blood and contains Clotting factors.
  • PRBCs raises Hb by 1 g/dl and Hct by 3%

B) Syntocinon infusion
C) Expectant management of third stage
D) Early cord clamping
E) Delivery on high-risk delivery unit
A

Active management of the third stage involves three components: 1) giving a drug (a uterotonic) to contract the uterus; 2) clamping the cord early (usually before, alongside, or immediately after giving the uterotonic), and this is before cord pulsation stops; 3) traction is applied to the cord with counter-pressure on the uterus to deliver the placenta (controlled cord traction)
