A

Dorsal Recumbent Position

However, you need to elevate 1 buttock– put a small rolled towel under the right buttock.

Rationale: Kapag umangat ang right
side, displaced ang uterus so that the
** inferior vena cava** will not be
compressed. This prevents vena caval
syndrome.

Kelangan
tumaas ang glucose levelng
mommy para magising si baby.

If hindi nakakain, bigyan ng juice
para mabilis.

Dapat at least 10 minutes gising
and baby. Get the FHT and give a
buzzer to a patient. Kapag
naramdaman ni patient na
gumalaw ang baby, instruct her
to press the buzzer to alert the
nurse.

After 10 minutes, bibilangin ng
nurse ang fetal heart rate.

If hindi parin gumagalaw ang
baby, possible na hindi kumain
ang nanay and it means tulog pa
ang baby. Para magising agad
ang baby, ring a bell above the
abdomen of the mother.

If 140 ang unang kuha , dapat
madagdagan ito ng 15 bpm after
10 mins na gumagalaw ang baby
para maging positive ang test.
Kapag greater than or equal kay
155, reactive and kapag less than
155 non-reactive ang baby

A

CONTRACTION STRES STEST (CST)

66
Q

Normal Result: No deceleration
of Fetal Heart Rate

A

CONTRACTION STRES STEST (CST)

67
Q

The mother is not in labor during
the test.

The mother will roll her nipple for
10 minutes to stimulate uterine
contraction. Ensure privacy of the
patient.

Nipple rolling will send a signal to
the PPG to produce small
amounts of oxytocin that causes
mild uterine contraction.

Strong uterine contraction is
present in actual labor and it can
decrease fetal heart rate.

Procedure:
Allow the patient to rest before
the procedure.

Get the fetal heart rate and
maternal vital signs.

Instruct the patient to change
into the patient’s gown.

Instruct the patient to roll her
nipples for 10 minutes. Provide
privacy.

Wait for a window of 3-5minutes
na may contraction. The baby
needs to be exposed to
continuous uterine contractions.

Sample FHR: 140bpm
Normal Result: Still 140bpm
hindi dapat mag bagoang FH

Implication if there is
deceleration of FHR
-Hindi pa nag lalabor,
bumabagal na ang FHR,
mild uterine
contractions palang.
Kapag naglabor na at
strong uterine
contractions na, mas
lalong bababa ang FHR
which can be fatal to
the fetus (fetal distress).

This test can predict the   possibility of fetal distress during   normal delivery.

71
Q

The 4 hormones that promote contraction

which results in the minimal uterine contraction during
pregnancy.

Q

Is it possible that the woman is experiencing true labor
even if the bag of water is intact?

A

Yes

rupture the bag of water themselves
(amniotomy).

Q

THEORIES OF LABOR ONSET

A
  • PROSTAGLANDIN THEORY
  • OXYTOCIN THEORY
  • UTERINESTRENGTH THEORY
  • PLACENTAL DEGENERATION THEORY and PROGESTERONE
    DEPRIVATION THEORY
93
Q

THEORIES OF LABOR ONSET

To prevent uterine rupturing of the uterus, the
endometrium produces prostaglandin to aid in
uterine contraction.

A

PROSTAGLANDIN THEORY

94
Q

At the same time, the PPG also releases oxytocin
to aid in uterine contraction.

A

OXYTOCIN THEORY

95
Q

As the baby grows, the uterus stretches and it
gets thinner.
The uterus stretches until it reaches its
maximumpoint of being stretched.

A

UTERINE STRENGTH THEORY

96
Q

When the placenta reaches 9months, it is aging.
Therefore, its ability to produce progesterone
decreases. Thus, this will not allow prevention of
contraction.

A

PLACENTAL DEGENERATION THEORY and PROGESTERONE
DEPRIVATION THEORY

108
Q

– promote contraction
Syntocinon—-
Pitocin
Oxytocin– EINC
Methergine

A

Oxytocic Drugs

● Oxytocin na ang ginagamit sa EINC
since bawal ang IV incorporation. Kaya
di na ginagamit si Syntocinon at
Pitocin.
● Main Reason: Kapag nag-incorporate
ng Syntocinon at Pitocin, it augments labor (Masyadong lumalakas ang
uterine contraction during labor and
delivery. Kaya nauubos na ang ability
ng uterus to contract after delivery.
Kaya ang main side effect ng
Syntocinon at Pitocin ay postpartum
bleeding
