Q

why do you think, breech or like shoulder, brow fetal presentation is bad and we end up doing a c-section for these moms?

A

because their isn’t enough pressure to dilate the cervix to push the baby and placenta through

it can lead to severe pain and potential neurologic damage

68
Q

VEAL CHOPS say it

A

variable declarations
= cord compression

early decelerations
= head compression

accelerations
= okay

late decelerations
= placental insufficneiy

69
Q

for late decelerations we want to follow the anagram LIONS which is?

side lying
iv fluids
oxygen
notify provider
surgery

70
Q

how are we gonna treat variable decerlatiosn ? (3)

A

knee chest
trendelenburg positon
aminofusion
( this is said to help with the cord float around )

71
Q

fetal oxgentation
intrauterine resuscitation

73
Q

side lying ( lateral position )
IV fluids
( oxygen typically too )

74
Q

I forgot to put up top this section
vaginal exam
wanna feel the ischial spine

when the baby hasn’t passed the ischial spine
its negative 1-5

when its passed the ischial spine
its postivie +1-5

VERY IMPORANT WHEN MEASURING THIS
THE FONTANELLS WILL STRECH OUT AND TRICK US INTO BELIEVING ITS LOWER

ALWAYS IMPORTANT TO TRACE FINGERS BACK AND FEEL FOR THE SUTURE LINES TO PROPERLY INDICIATE WHERE THE BABY IS AT.
