56
Q

is coping

Q

fatigue does what

A

decreases woman’s ability to cope effectively with contraction pain

58
Q

do we give heat with epidural

A

no because no sensation

59
Q

opioids do what to maternal vital signs

A

decrease HR, RR, BP

60
Q

why is fent good

A

short half life
fewer neonatal effects

61
Q

what do we give 15 to 30 mins before anesthesia

fluid bolus (500cc)

62
Q

what does fluid bolus do

A

decrease the potential for hypotension caused by sympathetic blockade

hypotension
impaired breathing
operatie birth more likely

64
Q

spinal headache caused by

A

accidentally punctured the dura
“wet tap”
- treatment is blood patch

platelets
- lesss than 100,000 bad and cannot get epidural

wedge under hip does what

A

displaces the uterus and gets it off major vessels

67
Q

cricoid pressure

A

helps visualize vocal cords for intubation
also helps prevent aspiration

68
Q

more movement is better because

A

helps change babies position

69
Q

side effects of anesthesia

A

hypotension
N/V
itchy skin
urinary retention
HA
increase temp

70
Q

fetal wellbeing during labor is measured by

A

the response of fetal heart rate to the uterine contractions

71
Q

contractions reduce the blood flow through the maternal vessel which

decrease O2 content in the maternal blood

72
Q

does FHR monitoring decrease neonatal morbidity

A

false

73
Q

abnormal fetal HR

A

hypoxia

74

high risk

75

we use intermittent auscultation in a

A

low risk pt

76
Q

components of external monitoring

A

ultrasound transducer
Toco transducer

77
Q

ultrasound transducer measures

A

fetal HR

78
Q

where is the ultrasound transducer placed

A

on fetal back
- use leipolds to find that

79
Q

toco transducer measures

A

contractions

80
Q

where is the toco transducer placed

A

on fundus

81
Q

components of internal monitoring

A

spiral electrode
intrauterine pressure catheter

82
Q

spiral electrode

A

HR
screwed into head

83
Q

intrauterine pressure catheter

A

amount of pressure in the uterus
monitors contractions

84
Q

why do we want moms pulse ox on

A

so we know we are picking up baby heart tones and not moms

85
Q

normal fetal HR range

A

110-160

86
Q

bradycardia (less than 110) causes

A

hypoxic
drugs
vasovagal

87
Q

tachycardia (greater than 160) causes

A

maternal fever
infection
fetal anemia

88
Q

variability tells us

A

if we got good oxygenation during labor

89
Q

4 categories of variability

A

absent
minimal
moderate
marked

90
Q

absent variability

A

no range
- m acid
- fetal sleep cycle

91
Q

minimal variability

A

less than 5 BPM above or below baseline

92
Q

moderate variability

A

6-25BPM above or below
normal acid base balance

93
Q

what type of varaibilty do we want

A

moderate

94
Q

marked variability

A

over 25BPM above or below
- fetal anemia or chorioamnionitis

95
Q

accerlations indicate

A

fetal well being/adequately oxygenation
- we want accelerations

96
Q

accerlation criteria terms and before 32 weeks

A

at least 15BPm increase for at least 15 sec
32: at least 10 BPM increase for at least 10 sec

97
Q

decorations

A

decrease in FHR characterized by their shapes and timing relationship to contractions

98
Q

early decels

A

response to vital head compression

99
Q

late decels

A

uteroplacental insufficiency

100
Q

variable decal

A

umbilical cord compression or prolapse

101
Q

prolonged deceleration

A

more than 2 min but less than 10 min

102
Q

contractions frequency

A

time from beginning of one cxn to beginning of next cxn, measured in mintues
- cxn in 10 min window averaged over 30 mins

103
Q

tachysystole

A

> 5 cxn in a 10 min window, averaged over 30 mins
- bad because HR goes down and the fetus is not being perfused = acidosis

104
Q

resting tone

A

normal intrauterine pressure between cxn or in absence of cxn
- allows the uterine vessels to give blood flow to the placental allowing the fetal exchange of repritory gases which enhanced fetal oxygenation

105
Q

VEAL CHOP

A

variability
early
accerlated
late

cord
head
okay
perfusion

106
Q

if we have variable what do we do

A

the cord is not perufsing enough so we want to slow labor down and stop pit

107
Q

Category 1
- HR
- Variability
- decels

A

normal HR (110-160)
moderate variability
absent decels

108
Q

category 2
- HR
- Variability
- decels
- accelerations

A
  • bradycardia/tachycarida
  • minimal or absent variability
  • recurrent decels
  • no accelerations in response to fetal stimulation
109
Q

category 3
- HR

maximize uterine blood flow and placental perfusion

115
Q

amnioinfusion

A

due to decrease amniotic fluids and we replace it to help cushion baby

Q

TRUE ACTIVE LABOR

A

time
color: normal is clear
odor: abnormal is foul

FETAL HR if decreased then might be cord issue and have to do C
