Prenatal Care and Normal Pregnancy Flashcards
normal APGAR range
7-10
APGAR score is recorded at _
and _ minutes after birth
1 and 5
an infant w. an APGAR score of _ to _ needs further eval and possible resuscitation
4-6
what does APGAR stand for
appearance
pulse
grimace
activity
respiration
normals for APGAR
a: 2 = active movement
p: 2 = pulse > 100
g: 2 = pulls away, sneeze
a: 2 = pink
r: 2 = crying
apgar score > _ = good
apgar score of _ indicates resuscitation

4
4 components of fetal position
size
attitude
lie
presentation
most critical component of fetal size
head size
_ disproportion is concerning for labor dystocia
cephalopelvic
what is macrosomia
birth weight > 90th %ile for gestational age or > 4500 g
macrosomia is associated w.
shoulder dystocia
birth injuries
what is fetal attitude
relationship of fetal parts to one another
i wish it were how bossy/spicy/feisty your fetus is
2 classifications of fetal attitude
fully flexed -> normal
not flexed
describe full flexion
chin on chest
rounded back
flexed arms/legs
smallest diameter of head presents at pelvic inlet
what is fetal lie
relationship of fetal cephalocaudal axis (spinal column) to maternal cephalocaudal axis
3 types of fetal lie
longitudinal -> ideal
transverse
oblique
fetal spine lies along maternal spine
longitudinal
fetal spine is perpendicular to maternal spine
transverse
fetal spine is at a slight angle to maternal spine
oblique
what is fetal presentation
fetal part that enters the pelvic inlet first
3 types of fetal presentation
cephalic
breech - bottom first
breech - shoulder first
3 types of cephalic fetal presentation
vertex
brow
face
mc type of cephalic presentation
vertex:
head completely fixed onto chest
occiput is presenting
-fetal head partially extended
-sinciput (frontal bone) is presenting part
brow presentation
-fetal head hyperextended
-fetal face from forehead to chin is presenting part
face presentation
-head up
-bottom, feet, knees present first
breech
what are the 4 types of breech
frank
complete
incomplete
shoulder
hips flexed
knees extended
bottom presents
frank breech
hips, knees flexed
bottom presents
complete breech
-one/both hips not completely flexed
-feet present
incomplete breech
-transverse lie
-shoulders present first
shoulder breech
prevalence of breech birth decreases w.
increasing gestational age
25% of fetuses under _ weeks old are breech
28
dx for breech presentation
PE
US if unclear
tx for breech presentation
- external cephalic version at or near term
- followed by trial of vaginal delivery if version is successful
- planned cesarean if persistent
24 yo G2P1 f in for 13 week office visit - fundal height and alpha fetoprotein are greater than expected for due date
multiple gestations
terms used for multiple births or the genetic relationship of their offspring
monozygotic
dizygotic
polyzygotic
multiple fetuses produced by the splitting of a single zygote
monozygotic (identical)
