Steps to dx suspected placenta previa
Transabdominal US followed by transvaginal sonography
No digital vaginal exam before US
Lectin/sphingomyelin ratio less than what to give steroids
2.0
Most important complication of PPROM
Pulmonary hypoplasia
Cataracts, PDA and purpura in newborn likely
Maternal rubella infection
Also look for hearing loss
Steps for patient with decreased fetal movement
NST followed by a contraction stress test of biophysical profile if NST is non-reactive
What does a normal contraction stress test mean
Suggests a low likelihood of stillbirth within 1 week of test –> So redo in 1 week
Septic abortion treatment
Broad spectrum Ab and surgical evacuation of the uterus
Acid base status of hyperemesis of pregnancy
Primary metabolic alkalosis
Exercise rec for pregnant women
> 30 min a day for 5 days week at low or moderate intensity
Paget’s path description
large cells surrounded by halo-like areas involving the epidermis
Increased risk of hyperemesis garvidarum from
Increased placental mass (twins, molar pregnancy)
What causes a complete mole?
When 2 sperm fertilize an ovum lacking genetic material
What causes a partial mole
When 2 sperm fertilize a haploid ovum (triploid karyotype)
Most common risk factor for placental abruption
Maternal hypertension
When does a placental abruption not blled
Retroplacental location of the hemorrhage
Fetal hydantoin syndrome features
Small body size, microcephaly, digital and nail hypoplasia, hirsutism and cleft palate
AE of COC
VTE, HTN, hepatic adenoma, rarely strokes and MI
How does hypothyroidism cause hyperprolactinemia
TRH stimulates prolactin production
Biggest risk factor for vaginal clear cell carcinoma
In utero DES exposure
HTN is a risk factor for what type of fetal growth restriction

Can be done in first trimester, quad screen not until 2nd
Most accurate way to determine gestational age
US dating w/ fetal crown-rump measurement in the first trimester
