biophysical risk factors

factors that originate within the mother or fetus and affect the development or functioning of either one or both




examples: genetic disorders, nutritional and general health status, medical related illness, poorly controlled DM, hypertensive disorder

psychosocial risk factors

maternal behaviors and adverese lifestyles




examples: distrubed interpersonal relationships


emotional distress


inadequate social support


unsafe cultural practices


substance abuse

sociodemographic risk factors

where she lives and resources


examples are lack of parental care, low income, marriage, ethnicity, age,

environmental risk factors

hazards in home or work


infection


drugs


pollutants

what group doesn't go to get prenatal care because its not covered

undocumented

being labeled a high risk pregnancy may result in

increased vulnerability


stress


ambivalence


inability to accomplish the tasks of parenthood


fear

daily fetal movement count tests

once a day for 60 min


2-3 times a day for 2 hours on until 10 movements are felt




10 movements in 12 hours

when are you concerned with movement

less the 3 movements in 1 hour

how can an UX be done

abdominally or vaginally




abdomin is used after 1st trimester want full bladder




vaginal is beter for 1st trimester

if were doing gestational testing we first need a

UX to see how old

when do you do the anatomical scan to confirm due date

18-20 wks

indications for UX use

FHR


age


growth


anatomy


genetic disorders


placental poisiton


adjunct to other invasive tests

when can fetal hr be determined by UX

6 wks

measurement that are most useful for gestational age calculation

crown rump length (after 10 wks)


biparetal diameter (after 12 wks)


head circumference and abdominal circumference


femur circumfrance

head circumference and abdominal circumfance should correspond with

gestational wks

plaques on heart mean

downsyndrome

Nuchal translucency

NT uses UX measurement of fluid in the nape of the neck between 10-14 wks to identify fetal abnormalities

what is abnormal for NT

more then 3 mm

elevated NT and low maternal serum maker levels means

increased risk for chromosomal abnormalities

high NT alone means

cardiac problems

UX findings that indicate possible Down syndrome

short or no nasal bone


short femur


echogenic bowel


emlarged renal pelvis




soft markers not diagnostic

do most cases of placenta pre via in the second trimester resolve on their own

yes

can we use UX for grading of placental age

yes



Dopler flow analysis

can tell S/D from fetus placenta and arteries

oliginohydramios

low fluid less then 2cm


associated with anomalies, growth resrticitons, abnormal Hr during labor

hydraminos

excess fluid more then 8cm


associated with neural tube defects, obstruction of GI tract

normal AFI amniotic fluid index

10 cm-25 cm




its made of all four quadrants

Biophysical profile

non invasive assessment of fetus based on acute and chronic markers of fetal disease




its like a physical exam including VS

when is BPP used

late second or third trimester

whats a normal BPP

8-10

modifies BPP

done to shorten the time the test takes


looks at NST and amniotic fluid

doppler study

dont do this unless getting blood sample from pubs or unless the baby has one artery or vein

when is amniocentesis possible

after 14 wks

indications for amniocentesis

diagnosis genetic disorders


assessment of pulmonary maturity


diagnosing fetal hemolytic disease

genetic concerns that may lead to amniocentesis

over 35


history of chromosomal abnormalities

late in pregnancy assessment of fetal lungs can be done by examining for the presence of

PG

fetal hemolytic disease

when moms Rh neg and babies rh pos and give mom rogam

amniocentesis maternal complications

hemmoraghe


fetomaternal hemmoragge


infection


labor


abruptio placentae


damage to intestines or bladder


amniotic fluid embolism

amniocenstesis fetal complicaitons

death


hemmorage


infection


injury from needle


risks may be minimized by using UX during procedure

first and second trimester assessment is directed primarily at the

diagnosis of fetal anomalies

methods used for antepartum fetal evaluation in high risk patients

NST


MBPP

when do you do antepartum fetal evaluations

32-34 wks

goal of the 3rd trimester antepartum assessment

to determine if the intrauterine environment is supportive to the fetus

NST

watch heart rate in response to movement, contraction or stimulation

most common reason for absence in FHR acceleration is

babys sleeping

procedure for NST

sit in chair


movements need to be recorded


can drink orange juice or do sound stimulation

NST interpretation

reactive or non reactive




want it to be reactive

fetal HR tells us the reactions between

Sym and parasym

how many accelerations do you need in 20 min

two




if don't get 2 do another 20 min


if still not send for long term monitoring


if it isn't seen after 40 min then a BPP will be done

what do you wan to see on the NST

a fetal HR that increases 15 beats lasting for 15 seconds

Contraction stress test is used to identify

jeaporized fetus that is stable as rest but showed compromise after stress

CST vs NST

CST shows earlier warning signs and it has less false positives




but more expensive

whats a contraindication for a CST

if the women cannot deliver vaginally at the time of the test

two methods for the CST

nipple stimulaiton


oxytocin stimulation

if no late decelerations are seen its a _____CST

negative




want to be negative

do nurses perform NST, CST and BPP

yes
