If >36weeks, just deliver them
Preterm Labor or pPROM management based on age
If >34 weeks: Treat GBS, Steroids if <36, then deliver
<34 weeks: Steroids, Abx, Mg if <32 weeks
Tx for uterine atony
Metylergovine (cause HTN)
Carboprost (worsns asthma)
Oxytoscin
Delayed post partum hemorroage, about 1hr after delivery

<5mm pass spontaneously
5-10 get medical mgmt (tamsulosin)
>10mm need surgery
Anti centromere ab

Unilateral headache
Horner syndrome
HbBarts is associated with
Alpha thal
Sickle Cell Trait hb electrophersis findings
40%HbS
60%HbA
Treatment principle for RV MI
MAINTAIN PRELOAD…more preload means you keep RV open. If you reduce preload, or increae afterload, you won’t be able to get blood out of R heart
First line treatment hot thyroid nodule
Methimizole…this is just a bridge to definitive therapy with ablation/surgery
First line treatment for non-perforated toxic megacolon
Steroids (reduce colitis)
Abx if infection suspected
What is the best test to measure efficacy of anti-thyroid drugs on a patient’s repeat visit?
T3 and T4…NOT TSH
How to diagnose narcolepsy
Sleep study (reduced REM latency) LP (low hypocretin)
In evaluating brain death, what do you do if neuro exam shows no reflexes?
Go straight to apnea testing (assuming they’re temp, BP, electrolytes are nml of course)
In evaluating brain death, what do you do if neuro exam is inconclusive or they’re paralyzed?
EEG or Brain imaging

> 2 in 6 mo
>3 in a year

Letrozole (induces ovulation)
GDM in the 2nd/3rd trimester is associated with what cardiac anomoly?

Marinium = red, ulcerated lesions Vulnificus= rapidly progressive hemorrhagic bullae
Management of Barrets based on biopsy (dysplasia level)
No dysplaisa - PPI, repeat endo in 3yrs
Mild dysplasia- PPI, endo in 6-12 mo
High dysplasia- Ablation
Classic CSF finding for fungal meningitis
Low Cell count w/lymphocytic predominance
Viral and bacteial have huge cell counts
Chronic unilateral Middle ear effusion that persists despite antibiotics. Think:
Nasopharyngeal cancer
If bilateral, usually non cancerous (obstructive, allergies, smoke exposure etc)
CSF findings for fungal vs TB meningitis
Both have lymphocytic predominance, but TB has pleocytosis whereas fungal has pretty low cell count
Multi-nutrient deficiency in a young-ish person: first thought should be
Celiac disease (even in the absence of diarrhea)
Breast lump <30, first step in management
Ultrasound…no longer just observe them without imaging
Chronic unilateral middle ear effusion that is resistant to antibiotics….think:
Nasopharyngeal cancer
If it’s bilateral, its probably due to obstruction from infection, allergies, environmental irritants etc…

Mom gets Rhogam during preg 1 at 28 weeks, has postpartum hemorrhage and gets it again. Next pregnancy, she has positive antibodies. What happened?
Inadequate dose of Rhogam post partum, because of the hemorrhage (need to increase dose)
