Q

Shoulder Dystocia

A

H - call Help (OB, peds, anesthesia)
E - Episiotomy (large)
L - Legs Flexed McRobert’s position
P - suprapubic Pressure
E - Enter the vagina, perform wood’s screw pushing shoulders to the fetal chest
R - Remove posterior arm, pull across face and pull out of birth canal

If still no dice - break clavicle

Q

Breech Delivery

A
  • PUSH IT BACK IN (zavanelli procedure)
    • Must have OB en route to do Csx)
  • If not help coming
    • Cut large episiotomy,
    • Sweep out legs and let deliver past umbilicus without any traction,
    • Pull 10cm of cord out once umbilicus clears perineum.
    • Deliver most accessible arm then the other, may need to rotate.
    • Rotate fetus to keep face down (so chin not caught on symphysis).
    • Use Mariceau maneuver (Fingers in fetal mouth sometimes via mom’s anus) to flex chin (or place pressure on maxilla) / avoid extension injury to spinal cord.

Q

Cord Prolapse

A
  • Hand in vagina to elevate presenting part (ie head) to decompress cord
  • Pt in knee chest position or deep T-berg
  • Tocolysis
    • Mg 4gm IV
    • Terbutaline 0.25mg SQ
  • C-Sx
17
Q

A
  • Uterine pressure
  • Oxytocin 20 Units IV (after placenta delivery)
  • Methergine 0.2 mg IM (contraindicated in HTN and PreE)
  • TXA
  • Repair lacs
18
Q

Cardiogenic Shock Tx

A

Hypotensive - Dopamine

Poor contractility - Dobutamine

19
Q

CHF FFM

A
  • Tx:
  • 100% O2 NRB prn or ​NIPPV ​
  • NTG 0.4 mg SL q 5 min x 3 or 20-200 mcg/min IV
    • Or NTP 0.25-10 mcg/kg/min IV Diuretic
  • Diuretics
    • Lasix 20-80 mg IV- 0.5-1 mg/kg
    • Bumex- 1-3 mg IV (1 mg = 40 mg lasix)
  • Foley to monitor I/Os
  • ACEI- should be on this, B blocker (both have decreased mortality), +/- diuretic, digoxin, spironolactone as outpatient

If respiratory distress… ​BiPAP early
If patient tiring/AMS… ETT
If hypotensive/cardiogenic shock… IVF in 250 cc boluses, pressors (may have to use multiple pressors + vasodilator)

Consult cards to discuss lytics, PCI, IABP
Norepinephrine 2-20 mcg/min IV- shock BP < 70
Dopamine 2-20 mcg/kg/min IV- BP <100 shock or persistent oliguria Dobutamine 2-20 mcg/kg/min IV- no signs of shock- poor contractility

20
Q

Aortic Dissection Tx

A
  • Stat CT surgery consult
  • Goal to decrease arterial pressure (decrease shearing forces)
  • If tachycardic… Goal HR 60-80
    • Esmolol 500 mcg/kg IV, then 50-200 mcg/kg/min
    • Diltiazem (if asthma or heart failure) load 0.25 mg/kg then 5-10 mg/hr
  • If hypertensive… Goal SBP = 100-120
    • Nitroprusside 0.25-10 mcg/kg/min IV
  • If single agent preferred…
    • Labetalol 0.25-1 mg/kg IV, double q 10 min (max 300mg total), then 1-2 mg/min
  • If hypotensive (5%)… r/o pseudohyportension w/ BL BP, check possible causes (hemopericardium, valve dysfxn, systolic dysfxn) before aggressive uid resus
21
Q

ACS Tx

A
  • ASA 162-325 mg PO

Q

HEART SCORE - How to Calc

A

    • Slightly = 0, Moderately = 1, Highly = 2
  • EKG
    • Normal = 0, Non-specific = 1, Sig ST change = 2

    • <45 = 0, 45-65 = 1, >65 = 2
  • Risk Factors
    • None = 0, 1-2 = 2. 3+ = 2
    • HTN, HLD, DM, Obesity, Smoking, Fam Hx of CVD <65y, prior atherosclerosis (MI, PCI/CABG, CVA/TIA, PAD)
  • Initial Trop
    • < normal limit = 0, 1-3 times normal = 1, >3x normal = 2
