SUM - sheets- FINAL - Sheet1 Flashcards
Can you reverse CCHB in an affected fetus?
No
Fetus grows how many grams per week?
5g/wk at 15
10g/wk at 20
30g/wk at 32
Apocrine and Eccrine gland activity in pregnancy?
Apocrine glands (hair follicles axilla and groin) Decreases Eccrine glands (throughout the body) Increases
Most common infectious cause of Non-immune Hydrops
Parvovirus
Which is the most abundant secretory hormone produced by the placenta?
HPL aka Human Chorionic Somatomammotropin
Normal Acid base values in pregnancy?
pH: 7.4-7.48 (unchanged)
O2: 101-104 (increased)
CO2: 27-32.5 (decreased)
HCO3: 18-26 (decreased)
Asthma Inhaler response, what is Good what is incomplete, what is poor? What do you do for each of those?
Good = PEFR >80% (repeat q 3-4 hrs PRN)
Incomplete = PEFT 50-80% (q 20 mins x 2 times, and call MD if not improved)
Poor = PEFR <50% (repeat treatment and seek medical attention)
NAIT mode of delivery?
Check Fetal platelet count at 32 weeks via PUBS, if >100,000 Vaginal okay, if <100,000 C/S
In a term newborn with neonatal encephalopathy, which MOST STRONGLY suggests that acute hypoxia-ischemia in the peripartum or intrapartum period was a contributor?
Presence of multi-system organ failure increases the chances of hypoxic-ischemic injury as an explanation for neonatal encephalopathy.
This finding has the strongest association with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy of the options presented.
However, it alone is insufficient for the diagnosis.
Name some sentinel obstetric events?
sentinel obstetric events occurring immediately before or during labor and delivery increase the chance of hypoxic-ischemia contributing to neonatal encephalopathy. Examples include uterine rupture, placental abruption, umbilical cord prolapse, amniotic fluid embolus, and hemorrhage associated with vasa previa.
Recommendation for delivery mode in twins with cephalic presentation of Twin A?
Perinatal outcomes for twin gestations in which first twin is in cephalic presentation are not improved by cesarean delivery. Thus, women with either cephalic/cephalic-presenting twins or cephalic/noncephalic-presenting twins should be counseled to attempt vaginal delivery
Most common site for fetal blood sampling?
Umbilical Vein close to the placental insertion site.
Indications in CDH for Fetal Endotracheal Obstruction (FETO)?
defined as LHR<1.0, 1/3 liver herniation
Which of the following is the most common indication for fetal intracardiac intervention?
Most common is balloon aortoplasty in fetus.
Possible fetal procedures include aortic valvuloplasty for critical aortic stenosis; atrial septostomy for hypoplastic left heart syndrome with intact interatrial septum, and pulmonary valvuloplasty for pulmonary atresia with intact interventricular septum.
When is Aortic Valvuloplasty used in a fetus?
It is offered for selected cases of critical aortic stenosis in which the left ventricle is either normal sized or dilated to prevent HLHS
Delivery plan for a CPAM?
if CVR (lxwxhx 0.52) (CPAM Volume ratio) > 1.6 consider EXIT procedure.
When in CPAM is more monitoring needed?
CVR > 1.6 (increaed risk of hydrops)
Maximum recommended dose of Lidocaine for local anesthetic?
4mg/kg max, or 7mg/kg if given with epinephrine
Most important determinant of drug transfer into maternal milk is?
Maternal plasma levels (more than the lipophilic, non protein bound, low molecular weight, non ionized)
When do you deliver IUGR?
With normal UA Doppler deliver at 38-39 weeks
If absent end diastolic flow deliver at 34 weeks, if the antepartum testing is reassuring
With reverse end diastolic flow, the recommendation is to deliver at 32 weeks.
Management of CPAM with Hydrops?
Drain / Shunt if possible if not consider Steroids and postnatal resection due to increased risk of malignancy.
Date discrepancy / change criteria?
o More than 5 days at less than 8 6/7 weeks
o More than 7 days between 9 and 13 6/7 weeks based on CRL
o More than 7 days between 14 and 15 6/7 weeks based on biometry
o More than 10 days between 16 and 21 6/7 weeks based on biometry
o More than 14 days between 22 and 27 6/7 weeks based on biometry
o More than 21 days at 28 weeks and beyond based on biometry
