A pregnant lady with pneumonia develops igg, what type of of immunity will the baby acquire?

Passive neutral


Passive immunity is the transfer of active immunity, in the form of readymade antibodies, from one individual to another. Passive immunity can occur naturally, when maternal antibodies are transferred to the fetus through the placenta, and can also be induced artificially, when high levels of human (or horse) antibodies specific for a pathogen or toxin are transferred to non-immune individuals.

- Pregnant female is HIV positive. What is the most likely mode of transmission to the baby?

- zidovudine for mother and baby

- By breast feeding




In an HIV-infected pregnant woman who has never been exposed to antiretroviral medication, HAART should be started as soon as possible, including during the first trimester. Combination antiretroviral therapy should be offered in all cases. As zidovudine (ZDV) is the only agent


specifically shown to reduce perinatal transmission, it should be used whenever possible as part of the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimen. All HIV-exposed infants should receive zidovudine


- ZDV start at 14w gestation.


- CS without amniocentesis if viral load 1000


copies or more.

Clindamycin

- gram stain


Gram's stain of vaginal discharge is the gold standard for diagnosis of BV BV can be diagnosed by the use of clinical criteria (i.e., Amsel's Diagnostic Criteria) Demonstration of clue cells on a saline smear is the most specific criterion for diagnosing BV. Obtaining routine vaginal cultures in patients with BV has no utility, because


this is a polymicrobial infection and some women may have asymptomatic carriage of G vaginalis organisms.


- vaginal discharge ph >4.5, Fishy odor, clue cells, thin grayish, no inflammation.


- most common cause of vaginal complaints.

4%

Pregnant lady, everything was normal except hemoglobin was low. What is the next step?
Iron

Iron supplementation is almost universally recommended during pregnancy to correct or prevent iron deficiency




Iron deficiency anemia accounts for 75-95% of the cases of anemia in pregnant women. While folate deficiency is much less common than iron deficiency. A woman who is pregnant often has


insufficient iron stores to meet the demands of pregnancy. Encourage pregnant women to supplement their diet with 60 mg of elemental iron daily. The clinical consequences of iron deficiency anemia include preterm delivery, perinatal


mortality, and postpartum depression. Fetal and neonatal consequences include low birth weight and poor mental and psychomotor performance.




- Hbg<10g, MCV <80, RDW >15%


- decrease serum iron w/ increased TIBC


- pregnant woman needs 800 mg.


- tx: FeSO4 325 oral. Prevention: iron 30mg/d

Cervical insufficiency: the canal is less than

A. 10 mm


B. 20 mm


C. C-30 mm

20 mm

We make a diagnosis of cervical insufficiency in women with one or two prior second-trimester pregnancy losses or preterm births and cervical length <25 mm on TVU examination or advanced cervical changes on physical examination before 24 weeks of gestation. Risk factors for cervical insufficiency support the diagnosis




- pregnant 18-22w, painless cervical dilation, delivery of previable fetus. No labor contraction


- tx: elective cerclage at 13-14w if cervical legth <25 mm. Preterm birth (remove at 36-37) .

What is the best drug given to prevent postoperative thromboembolism?

A- decrease compliance


B- increase blood clot


C- less effective than OCCP (same effect )


D- less skin complication (causes skin irritation )

Increase blood clot




Combination modalities: contain both hormones, daily w/on and off (withdrawal bleeding).


Regular predictable menses.


Best for dysmenorrhea, ovarian cyst, endometriosis.


- oral: reduce severe PMS sx (fluid retention and acne).


- vaginal ring: for 3w and 1 w removed to allow bleed. Stable constant hormone levels.


- skin patch: replaced every 3 w (3w on and 1 w allow bleed). Contain 60% higher steroid than oral.



Pregnant woman with significant edema in his hand and foot, Blood pressure 160/110, what will you do?


A. Give him diuretic


B. Low diet salt


C. Labetalol


D. Observation in hospital

Labetalol


- If a pregnant woman's blood pressure is sustained greater than 160 mm Hg systolic and/or 110 mm Hg diastolic at any time, lowering the blood pressure quickly with rapid-acting agents is indicated for maternal safety.


- Anticonvulsant therapy may be undertaken in the setting of severe preeclampsia (primary prophylaxis) or in the setting of eclamptic seizures


(secondary prophylaxis). The most effective agent is IV magnesium sulfate; phenytoin is an alternative, although less effective, therapy.


- Labetalol has a more rapid onset of action, may be given orally or parenterally, and is generally preferred as a first-line agent.

Prolong labor. She might have post partum hemorrhage, How to asses this patient?

A. Visual blood loss


B. Hematocrit count


C. Pulse


D. Hemoglobin level

- A or C?!


- vaginal delivery blood loss 500 ml or > or CS blood loss 1000 ml or >


* Uterine atony the most common cause of PPH


- PPH is best defined and diagnosed clinically as excessive bleeding that makes the patient symptomatic (eg, pallor, lightheadedness, weakness, palpitations, diaphoresis, restlessness, confusion, air hunger, syncope) and/or results in signs


of hypovolemia (eg, hypotension, tachycardia, oliguria, low oxygen saturation [<95 percent].




- Vaginal bleeding is usually noted, but may not be present in cases where hemorrhage is related to abdominal bleeding broad ligament hematoma after a sulcus laceration


- PPH is also defined as primary or secondary: primary PPH occurs within 24 hours after delivery (also called early PPH) and secondary PPH occurs 24 hours to 12 weeks after delivery (also called late PPH)


- Women with a prior PPH have as much as a 10 percent risk of recurrence in a subsequent pregnancy


- For secondary postpartum hemorrhage, we suggest administration of uterotonic agents and/or antibiotics. If unsuccessful, we suggest suction curettage to evacuate potential retained products of conception.


- Atony: soft uterus (dough) above umblical, due to rapid or protracted labor commonly. Tx: massage, uterotonics.


- laceration: surgical tx


- retained placenta: accecory placental lobe, contracted uterus but missing cotyledons, tx: manual removal or curettage


- DIC: mostly due to Abruptio placenta.


Preeclampsia, AF embolisim, dead fetus. Oozinf from IV siets. Remove tissue, ICU, blood products


- uterine inversion: due to myometrial weakness, beefy appearing bleeding mass in vagina, uterus not palpable in abdomen. Tx: replace with vaginal fornices and IV oxytocin


- persistent unexplained bleeding: ligate vessels or hysterectomy.

A G3P0 female with 3 recurrent abortions, on investigating the last abortion you found an aneuploidy 45X. What are the chances of having this abnormality in her next pregnancies?

A. 30%


B. 40%


C. 50%


D. 60%

30%

Turner syndrome (45X) is frequently observed and is the most common chromosomal abnormality observed in spontaneous abortions. Turner syndrome accounts for 20-25% of cytogenetically abnormal abortuses.



- The likelihood for an SAB increases with each successive miscarriage. Data from various studies indicate that after 1 SAB, the baseline risk of a couple having another SAB is approximately 15%. However, if 2 SABs occur, the subsequent risk increases to approximately 30%.


- Most spontaneous miscarriages are caused by an abnormal (aneuploid) karyotype of the embryo. At least 50% of all first-trimester SABs are cytogenetically abnormal.

Female pregnant with twins , in her 34 week ( she had some complication I forget it ) the doctor said that she needs emergency CS cuc the presentation of twin A might result in fetal complications , what is the presentation of twin
Breech-cephalic

In general, if the first (presenting) twin is in the cephalic (vertex) presentation, labor is allowed to progress to vaginal delivery, whereas if the presenting twin is in a position other than cephalic, cesarean delivery is often performed. Twin gestations in which the first twin is in the breech presentation (20% of all twin deliveries) are most often delivered via cesarean delivery

Patient with Invasive Cervical Cancer, you want to stage her cancer, which of the following tests you should perform?
Proctoscopy, cystoscopy, hysteroscopy

Cervical cancer: double peak: 40-44 and 70-47 y.


- squamous cell tumors are 90-95%


- sx: abnormal bleeding (intermenstrual and postcoital).


- RF: early age of first intercourse, high # of sexual partner (or partner w/prostatic or penile cancer), HPV, smoking, lower socioeconomic


- suspicious features by colposcopy: intense acetowhite, pale on iodine staine, mosaicism and


punctuation atypical vessels, raised or ulcerated


surface.


- staging: investigations:


1) cone biopsy to assess depth of invasion. 2) CXR, IVU, Cystoscopy, sigmoidoscopy or MRI to look for bladder/bowel involvement.


- stage 1 and 2a: surgery/radio


- other stages: radio.


- distance metastasis: palliative

Single Female came to your clinic one day after condom rupture during vaginal intercourse, she is worried about becoming pregnant. What you will do?

A.Pregnancy test


B.Wait and arrange for appointment after one week

D.Give progesterone only contraception

Give post-coital contraception


- EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION


• hormonal EC (Yuzpe® or Plan B®, usually 2 doses taken 12 h apart) or post-coital IUD insertion


• hormonal EC is effective if taken within 72 h of unprotected intercourse (reduces chance Of pregnancy by 75-85%), most effective if taken within 24 h, does not affect an established Pregnancy


• post-coital iuds inserted within 5 d of unprotected intercourse are significantly more effective Than hormonal EC (reduces chance of pregnancy by ~99%)


*Yuzpe® method = 98% (within 24 h), decreases by 30% at 72 h


*“Plan B” levonorgestrel only= 98% (within 24 h),


decreases by 70% at 72 h

A. Metrorrhagia


B. Hypermenorrhea


C. Metrorrhagia


D. Polymenorrhea

- Hypermenorrhea : abnormally heavy or prolonged menstruation; can be a symptom of uterine tumors and can lead to anemia if prolonged



- Metrorrhagia: is uterine bleeding at irregular intervals, particularly between the expected menstrual periods




- Polymenorrhea is the medical term for cycles


with intervals of 21 days or fewer.




- Oligomenorrhea is the medical term for infre


quent, often light menstrual periods (intervals


exceeding 35 days).




- Menometrorrhagia (meno = prolonged, metro =


uterine, rrhagia = excessive flow/discharge) may


be diagnosed. Causes may be due to abnormal


blood clotting, disruption of normal hormonal


regulation of periods or disorders of the en


dometrial lining of the uterus .

Patient pelvic inflammatory d with salpingitis , On ceftriaxone and no improvement , What is the cause?!

N gonorrhea:


- The organisms most commonly isolated in cases of acute PID are N gonorrhoeae and C trachomatis. Ceftriaxone is used for Neisseria Tx.


- PID is acute bacterial infection OR adhesions from old inflamation


- most common RF: female sexual activity in adolecence w/multiple partners.


- PID increase in the m after insertion of IUD




1) cervicitis: no sx only mucoperilent discharge.--> WBC/ESR normal--> single dose cefixime and azithro


2) Acute salpingio-oopheraitis: after menses: bi


lateral abdominal pelvic pain, cervical motion


tenderness, mucoperilent discharge. WBC/ESR elevated, laparoscopy, cultures--> IM ceftriaxoe + (doxycycline for 14d).


3) abscess: pt septic w/sevre rectal, back or bow


el movement pain. N/V. Septic and peritonial signs--> bilareal complex pelvic masses--> IV clindamycine and gentamicin. Drainage maybe needed.


4) chronic PID: bilateral abdominal pelvic pain, cervical motion tenderness, no discharge. Hx of infertility--> Sonography show bilateral cystic pelvic masses consistent w/hydrosalpinges. , laparoscopic visualization of adhesion--> analgesia, adhesion lysis.

Best time to check chorionicity and amnionicity of twins?

A. Early 2nd trimester


B. Late 2nd trimester


C. Early 3rd trimester


D. Late 3rd trimester

Early 2nd trimester

It is easiest to determine chorionicity and amnionicity in the first trimester.


- dizygotic twins are most common and has RFs like oval induction, monozygotic no RFs.


- dx: Sonogram


- lowest risk: Dizygotic (2 eggs), Dichorionic, Diamniotic: same gender or unknown w/2placenta


- The number of placentas and amniotic sacs in a monozygotic twin pair depends on when division of the zygote occurs relative to formation of the chorion and amnion.


* di-di: Morula (0-3), Monochorionic (1placenta w/septum)-di: blastocyst 4-8d-->TTTS, mono-moni: embryonic disk--> cords entangled, conjoined: Embryo >12d.


- dizygotic is always Di-Di




- complications


: anemia, pre-eclampsia, preterm


labor, malpresentation, CS, PPH, thromboembolism, malpresentation.


- sx: hyperemesis gravidarum. Higher BhCG and AFP

Seven weeks pregnant lady c/o vaginal bleeding with tissue. Her cervix was open and you can see some product of conception. Her fundal height is equal to 7 to 8 weeks.

A. Threatened abortion


B. Incomplete abortion


C. Missed abortion


D. Molar pregnancy

Incomplete abortion

Incomplete abortion is a pregnancy that is associated with vaginal bleeding, dilatation of the cervical canal, and passage of products of conception. Usually, the cramps are intense, and the vaginal bleeding is heavy. Patients may describe passage of tissue, or the examiner may observe evidence of tissue passage within the vagina. Ultrasound may show that some of the products of conception are still present in the uterus


- dilated cervix is seen in Inevitable and incomplete abortion.


*Inevitable: No POC has yet been passed. D and C if bleeding is heavy vs expectant tx (if fetal cardiac activity present).


- if cervical OS is closed: threatened abortion


which is a sonogram finding of viable pregnancy


and no cervical dilation.--> observation


- Complete: all POC passed, OS closed. Confirmed by sonography (no content) --> conservative, FU BhCG to exclude ectopic.




Missed: nonviable, no bleeding, no dilation, no POC --> suction D and C.

Descending of presenting part

Vaginal examinations have become a routine intervention in labour as a means of assessing labour progress( affecment , dilatation,desnding of baby)

26 year old female with three months history of bilateral clear fluid coming out of her breasts, it was obvious on physical examination. Normal menstrual cycle. What investigation you would like to do?

A. Neuroimaging.


B. Mammogram.


C. Prolactin assay.


D. ACTH.

Prolactin assay

- Hyperprolactinemia in premenopausal women causes hypogonadism, manifested by infertility, oligomenorrhea, or amenorrhea and less often by galactorrhea.


- Excluding pregnancy, hyperprolactinemia accounts for approximately 10 to 20 percent of cases of amenorrhea


- Mild hyperprolactinemia can cause infertility even when there is no abnormality of the menstrual cycle, serum prolactin values of 20 to 50 ng/mL (20 to 50 mcg/L SI units), may cause only insufficient progesterone secretion, and therefore, a short luteal phase of the menstrual cycle (anovulation)


- serum prolactin values above 200 ng/mL usually indicate the presence of a lactotroph adenoma


- search for the cause of the hyperprolactinemia


should begin with the history. One should inquire about pregnancy (nonpathologic hyperprolactinemia) and medications that can cause hyperprolactinemia (such as estrogen, neuroleptic


drugs, metoclopramide, antidepressant drugs, cimetidine, methyldopa, reserpine, verapamil, and risperidone). One should also inquire about headache, visual symptoms, symptoms of hypothyroidism, and a history of renal disease.


- The physical examination should be directed toward testing for a chiasmal syndrome (eg, bitemporal field loss), and looking for chest wall injury and signs of hypothyroidism or hypogonadism.

The most accurate diagnostic investigation For ectopic pregnancy:

A. Culdocentesis


B. Pelvic U/S


C. Endometrial biopsy


D. Serial B-HCG


E. Laparoscopy

Combined transvaginal ultrasonography and serial quantitative beta-hcg measurements are aproximately 96 percent sensitive and 97 percent specific for diagnosing ectopic pregnancy.



Therefore, transvaginal ultrasonography followed by






quantitative beta-hcg testing is the optimal and most cost-effective strategy for diagnosing ectopic pregnancy.





- TVUS is the most useful test for determining the location of a pregnancy. If the imaging study is nondiagnostic, it may be because the gestation is too early to be visualized on ultrasound. If so, serial measurements of the serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) concentration should be taken until the hCG discriminatory zone is reached




- Pelvic ultrasound may be performed using one or both of 2 methods:Transabdominal (through the abdomen). A transducer is placed on the abdomen using the conductive gelTransvaginal (through the vagina). A long, thin transducer is covered with the conducting gel and a plastic/latex sheath and is inserted into the vagina



24 years old G1P0 , she has gestational diabetes which is controled by diet only, and no other medical problems.

A girl with bilateral ovarian abscess with fever ? A. Immediate laparotomy

B. Laparoscopic


C. Trans us drain


D. Antibiotic

Hospitalization, IV antibiotics, if not improved after 48 hr: First-line therapy typically uses a second generation cephalosporin with anti-anaerobic activity and it is still inconclusive whether additional anti-anaerobic coverage is needed above and beyond the second-generation cephalosporing, cefoxitin or cefotetan, plus doxycycline , proceed to trans US drain.



- A tuboovarian abscess (TOA) is an inflammatory mass involving the fallopian tube, ovary and, occasionally, other adjacent pelvic organs (eg, bowel, bladder) [1]. These abscesses are found most commonly in reproductive age women and typically result from upper genital tract infection.


* type 3 PID


- Antibiotics are the mainstay of treatment for TOA.


- The choice of antibiotic therapy alone or in combination with drainage or surgery depends upon the status of the patient and characteristics of the abscess.


- We suggest antibiotic therapy alone for women with the following characteristics:Hemodynamically stable with no signs of a ruptured TOA (acute abdomen, sepsis)Abscess <9 cm in diameterAdequate response to antibiotic therapyPremenopausal


- Rupture of a TOA occurs in approximately 15 percent of cases. Women suspected of having a ruptured TOA or who present with signs of sepsis require immediate surgical exploration. Laparotomy appears to be the best route in these emergent cases

A lady delivered a macrosomic baby, what is the reliable method of diagnosing postpartum hemorrhage? A. Visual assessment of blood loss B. Maternal pulse C. Hemoglobin D. Creatinine
Maternal pulse

Important organ systems to assess include the cardiovascular (heart murmur, tachycardia, strength of peripheral pulses) the pulmonary system (evidence of pulmonary edema), and neurological systems (mental status changes from hypovolemia). The hemoglobin and hematocrit are helpful in estimating blood losses. However, in a patient with acute hemorrhage, several hours may pass before these levels change to reflect the blood loss and platelet count.

A. Hypothyroid


B. Hypoprolactinemia >> new choices


C. Congenital adrenal Hyperplasia


D. Pheochromocytoma

Hypothyroid



Primary hypothyroidism will lead to decreased level of T3, T4 and increase level of TSH. TSH and FSH both of them have the same alpha unit, so when level of TSH is increased it will go and attach to FSH receptor and will work like FSH, this will lead to appear of menopause symptoms.

Continuous inconteinence = vesico or uretero Just during micturition URTHERO

Women after hystrectomy she will receive : A. Continuos estrogen and progesterone B. Cyclic estrogen and progestron C. Levonorgestrel D. Estrogen only
Estrogen only

Treating menopausal symptoms with estrogen alone is known as estrogen therapy (ET). ET improves the symptoms of menopause, but it increases the risk of cancer of the uterus (endometrial cancer). Because of this, ET is only safe for women who don't have a uterus (such as those who have had a hysterectomy).

Women post intercourse bleeding:

A. Uterine cervix


B. Uterine body


C. Valve


D. Vagina

Uterine cervix

In premenopausal women, the source of vaginal bleeding after sex is usually the cervix. In postmenopausal women, vaginal bleeding after sex may arise from the opening of the bladder (urethral meatus), the outer opening of the vagina (labia) or the uterus, as well as the cervix.

A woman who had spontaneous rupture of membranes came to the hospital stating that the fluid that came out was clear. O/E her temp. 38.4 c and there's Pain score was 8 out of 10. On palpation of uterus when not in contraction, there's tenderness. How to manage?

a. Give antipyretic


b. Give antibiotics while in labor


c. Don't do anesthesia


d. Do immediate CS.

Give antibiotics while in labor?

Once the decision to manage a patient expectantly has been made, the institution of broad-spectrum antibiotics should be considered. However if there is no sign of infection the management of PROM depends on the gestational age (go back to Kaplan notes)




- Ruptured fetal membrane before labor onset (term/preterm). Posterior fornix pooling, fluid is nitrazine +, fernning on glass slide drying.


- most RF: ascending infection. Cigarettes and local infection.


-sx: fluig guch from vagina, clear. Oligohydramnios


Dx: sterile speculum


* Chorioamnionitis: maternal fever and uterine tenderness in presence of PROM but no URTI/UTI.


Tx:


1) if uterine contraction: Never Tocolysis


2) if Chorioamnionitis: take cervical culture, give IV Abx, initiate delivery


3) if no infection: <24w: induce labor or bed rest


If 24-33: conservative (in hospital bed rest, IM betamethasone, cervical culture, 7d Ampicillin and erythromycin.


If >34 initiate delivery

CML associated with which translocation :

A- t (14; 18)


B- t ( 11;14)


C- t (8; 14)


D- t (9; 22).

t (9; 22)

CML is almost invariably associated with an abnormal chromosome 22 known as the Philadelphia chromosome, often abbreviated as Ph, Ph(1), or Ph1[1,2]. The Philadelphia chromosome t(9;22)(q34;q11) results in the formation of a unique gene product (BCR-ABL1)

D. Referral to STD clinic

Reevaluation when symptoms come with consideration other inflammatory process
Vaginal discharge with fishy odor and other details what is the treatment ?
Metronidazole

This is bacterial vaginosis ( Clue cells, fishy odor and PH>4.5). Metronidazole or clindamycin are used to treat BV. Metronidazole is safe in pregnancy.

Pregnant came for evaluation, TSH was low what are you going to give her:

a. Methinazole


a. Ptu


b. Radio active iodine


c. Thyroidectomy

depending on the trimester

Methinazole and ptu can be used in pregnancy but Methinazole should not be used in the first trimester. PTU has a risk of developing liver failure (rare) thus is should be limited to the first trimester. Radio active iodine is contraindicated in pregnancy. Thyroidectomy could be used after the failure of medical therapy.


Hyper:


- etiology may be gravis ( decrease TSH, increase T4, TSHR-Ab)most common. Other: toxic nodular (plummer), hydatidi form mole, toxic diffuse goiter.


- if uncontrolled: IUGR, premature, abortion


- storm: pyrexia, severe dehydration and tachycardia. Tx: PTU, BBs, steroids, iodine.


- antithyroid meds: first line tx but can cross placenta cause hypothiroidism.




Hypo:

RLQ pain 9 out of 10 , mass felt tender on examination , US mass 6cm:

a. Ectopic pregnancy


b. Cystic rupture


c. Appendicitis


d. Cystic torsion

Cystic torsion

Sudden and severe lower abdominal pain associated with adnexal mass is presumptive evidence of ovarian torsion




Common causes of abdominal pain in pregnant women include appendicitis, acute chole-cystitis, ovarian torsion, placental abruption, and ectopic pregnancy. Often, it isdifficult to differentiate from among these different etiologies, but a careful his-tory and physical and reexamination are the most important steps.


* Appendicitis: Any trimester, RLQ, N/V anorexia leukocytosis fever, treatment surgery


* Cholecystitis: After first trimester, RUQ, N/V anorexia leukocytosis, Fever, treatment surgery.


* Torsion: 14 weeks gestation or post delivery, unilateral abdominal or pelvic, N/V, treatment surgery.


* placental abruption: second and third trimester, midline persistent uterine, vaginal bleeding and abnormal fetal heart tracing, delivery


* ectopic pregnancy: first trimester, unilateral abdominal or pelvic, N/V syncope spotting, surgical or medical



Women in her 30s , multipara 40 week with breach presentation ECV done 2 weeks ago , amniotic fluid index 12, now the baby is on lateral position , why it is contraindicated ECV ?

A. Age of the patient


B. Previous ECV


C. Her AFI


D. Position of the fetus

- ??


ECV: repositioning of fetus within uterus under U/S guidance. Contraindications: previous T3 bleed, prior classical C/S, previous myomectomy, oligohydramnios, PROM, placenta previa, abnormal U/S, suspected IUGR, HTN, uteroplacental insufficiency, nuchal cord. In this case there is no contraindication to repeat the ECV



Which of these cardiac diseases female fit for pregnancy:

a. MS 1cm


b. Sever MR


c. Eisenmenger


d. 20% ejection fracture

MS 1cm

The most common acquired lesion in pregnancy is rheumatic heart disease and the most common of which is MS




- I think its sever MR!


PPSS:


Prolapse good in pregnancy


Stenosis sick in pregnancy




Most common rheumatic heart disease. Main problem is inadequate diastolic flow from left atrium to left ventricle. § ↑ preload due to normal ↑ in blood volume results in left atrial over-load.↑ pressure in the left atrium is transmitted into the lungs, resulting in pulmonary hypertension (HTN). § Tachycardia associated with labor and delivery exacerbates the pulmonary HTN because of decreased filling time. May lead to pulmonary edema. § Twenty-five percent of women with mitral stenosis have cardiac failure for the first time during pregnancy. § Ballon valvuloplasty may need to be performed as a last resort. § Fetus is at risk for growth restriction. § Peripartum period is the most hazardous time.




- ASD, VSD are tolerated well as are any reguritation lesions.


- severe MS is <2 w/maternal mortality 5-15%

Lactating women with seizure , on phenobarbital what is your advice regarding breast feeding? a. Stop breast feed 8 hour after medication . b. Stop breast feeding immediately c. Continue breast feeding d. Something for 3 weeks
Continue breast feeding

mothers receiving ethosuximide, phenobarbital or primidone choose to breastfeed, they should exercise caution and closely monitor the infant for sedation, lethargy and any significant clinical findings.

What is the best antibiotic for breast feeding is? A. Chloramphenicol → enters breast milk; discontinue drug or do not nurse

B. Azithromycin →Unknown whether drug is excreted into breast milk; use with caution


C. Cimetidine → not antibiotic & does enter breast milk


D. Ciprofloxacin → drug enters breast milk; use not recommended (American Academy of Pediatrics Committee states that drug is compatible with nursing

None of the choices is “SAFE”. There could have been a 4th choice instead of cimetidine In general, according to Mayo clinic, the following are safe during pregnancy

 Amoxicillin  Ampicillin( all beta lactames are safe according to Kaplan)  Clindamycin  Erythromycin  Penicillin  Nitrofurantoin

48 year-old asymptomatic woman has 5-6 cm fibroid 5 or 6. What is the treatment?

A. Hysterectomy


B. Myomectomy


C. Regular follow up yearly


D. Follow up and CBC every 2 month

Regular follow up yearly

For asymptomatic patients and those that elect non-surgical treatment or no treatment at all, annual pelvic examination should suffice to document stability in size and growth

27 weeks pregnant lady with history of UTI treated with antibiotics on week 12. Now she has symptoms of UTI and stat abx (?), what is the best management?

A. Referral to cystoscopy


B. Start antibiotics if patient asymptomatic


C. Continue antibiotics then do culture


D. Referral to surgery

Their answer: I believe B is wrong because I think the question is meant to be “if patient is symptomatic” to make sense. If so, B would be wrong because bacteriuria/UTI in pregnant patients should be treated promptly even if she is “asymptomatic” due to the increased risk of pyelonephritis and other complications.


C is right because pregnant patients with UTI treatment success depends on complete eradication of the bacteria. Patients should be followed up with culture after antibiotics course to insure that.




- asymptomatic bacteriuria is most common UTI


in pregnancy. If untx will develop acute pyelonephritis


- acute pyelonephritis lead to: preterm labor, sepsis, anemia, pulmonary dysfunction

A. Give IG


B. Vaccine


C. Do nothing


D. Terminate the pregnancy

They answered C??


I think its A, Use of immune globulin — Intramuscular immune serum globulin can prevent or diminish the severity of disease if administered to susceptible individuals within six days of exposure. Administration of immune serum globulin may be especially warranted in exposed individuals for whom the risk of complications of measles is increased, such as pregnant women, individuals less than one year of age, and immunocompromised hosts.

- cervical cancer?

A lady complained of vuvula vesicle that tender , no vaginal discharge?

A. Chancer


B. Syphilis


C. Hsv


D. Postherptic leison

They answered A?!


- Lesions (chancres) usually begin as solitary, raised, firm, red papules that can be several centimeters in diameter. The chancre erodes to create an ulcerative crater within the papule, with slightly elevated edges around the central ulcer (see the images below). It usually heals within 4-8 weeks, with or without therapy.


- painful ulcer: HSV

80% effecment , 4 cm dilated cervix on IV oxytocin, she is stable on CTG showingg variable acceleration?

A. Stop oxytocin


B. Give terbutaline


C. Change mother position


D. Expectant delivery

Expectant delivery?!
Best to confirm menopause?

A. FSH


B. LSH (not sure if this choice is correct! I think it should be LH)


C. Estrogen


D. Progesterone

FSH


(FSH) levels are higher than (LH) levels, and both rise to even higher values than those seen in the surge during the menstrual cycle. The FSH rise precedes the LH rise. FSH is the diagnostic marker for ovarian failure. LH is not necessary to make the diagnosis.

27 Gestation pregnant with monoamniotic twin, one of them died? A. Give steroid and deliver B. Wait to 34 then deliver C. Wait 37 then deliver D. Wait until SVD

A or B?


Once choosing a conservative management, one should be aware, however, to the natural history of approximately 90 % deliveries within 3 weeks from the time of diagnosis. Preterm delivery is therefore common and steroid prophylaxis for lung maturity enhancement should be given.


- For gestations at 32 to 34 weeks, administering a course of corticosteroids to enhance fetal maturity and delivery 48 hours later is an option; however, there are no data showing that this is beneficial to the survivor. Before 32 weeks, it is probably best to allow the pregnancy to continue. The risk of cerebral palsy in the surviving cotwin may be as high as 20 percent

70 year old with yellow discharge, foul smell not itching not sexually active:

A. Atrophic vaginitis


B. Candida


C. Bacterial vaginosis


D. Trhomanis

B. MMR is live attenuated bacteria


C. MMR can be received while breastfeeding


D. Stop breastfeeding for 48-72

MMR can be received while breastfeeding

MMR vaccine can be given to breast-feeding mothers without any risk to their baby. Very occasionally rubella vaccine virus has been found in breast milk but this has not caused any symptoms in the baby.

80% effacement, 4 cm dilated cervix on IV oxytocin, she is stable, CTG variable deceleration?

A. Stop oxytocin


B. Give terbutaline


C. Change mother position


D. Expectant delivery

Stop oxytocin?!


If CTG is non-reassuring start 1 or more conservative measures: Encourage the woman to change position and avoid being supine, offer oral or intravenous fluids, reduce contraction frequency by stopping oxytocin if being used and/or offering tocolysis.




- Variable decelerations occur when the umbilical cord is compressed. Intermittent variable decelerations (associated with <50 percent of contractions) are frequently observed in labor tracings and are not usually associated with adverse consequences, presumably because transient cord compression is well tolerated by the fetus [37]. Thus, they do not require intervention.




- recurrent variable decelerations (>50 percent of contractions) require a greater degree of surveillance. The treatment of variable decelerations is generally aimed at resolving cord compression. Change of maternal position is a reasonable first treatment option [39]. Amnioinfusion can be useful in resolving persistent variable decelerations. (See "Amnioinfusion: Indications and outcome" and "Amnioinfusion: Technique".) Adjunctive measures to improve fetal oxygenation (oxygen supplementation, intravenous fluid bolus, reduce uterine contraction frequency) may be useful. In addition, scalp stimulation should be performed to provoke fetal heart rate acceleration, which is a sign that the fetus is not acidotic. Delivery is indicated if the tracing does not improve and acidemia is suspected.

A. Ruptured appendix


B. Ruptured Ectopic Pregnancy


C. Ruptured Ovarian Cyst

Ruptured ectopic pregnancy


Clinical manifestations of ectopic pregnancy typically appear six to eight weeks after the last normal menstrual period. The classic symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are: pelvic\lower Abdominal pain, Amenorrhea, Vaginal bleeding. These symptoms can occur in both ruptured and un-ruptured cases. Rupture may be present as sudden, severe pain, followed by syncope or by symptoms and signs of hemorrhagic shock or peritonitis.

Pregnant lady 24 weeks GA, thyroid function test as the following: TBG High, TSH Normal, TOTAL T4 high and Free T4 low

A) Pregnancy


B) Oral contraceptives use


C) Compensated euthyroid


D) Hyperthyroidism

A major contribution to the increased TBG concentration during pregnancy is the reduced plasma clearance of the protein caused by changes in TBG glycosylation induced by estrogen. Total thyroxine (TT4) and total triiodothyronine (TT3) concentration increase in the setting of pregnancy-induced increases in serum TBG concentrations. Free T3 (FT3) and free T4 (FT4) levels are slightly lower in the second and third trimesters. TSH levels are low-normal in the first trimester, with normalization by the second trimester.

Dew drops on rose petals vaginal lesions, dx:

A- Herpes simplex


B- Syphilis


C_ chanchroid lesion


D- herpangia

Herpes simplex

Herpes simplex and varicella zoster both cause this type of rash. The skin lesions are characteristic for this disease. There are maculopapules, vesicles and scabs in various stages of evolution. This is shown in the figure below.


- There is shifting from maculopapules to vesicles over hours to days. Usually the trunk and face is affected and this shifts to other regions of the body. The base of these vesicles are erythematous and they appear in crops i.e. Some are still developing while others are healing. The classical sequence is macules, papules, clear vesicles, pustules, central umbilication and eventually crust formation. The classical description of the lesion is a 'dew drop on rose petal' appearance. The rose petal refers to the reddish irregular papule and the clear vesicle on it is the dew drop.

. What it the Side effect of post-menopausal hormonal therapy

A. Breast cancer


B. Uterine cancer


C.DVT


D. STROKE

DVT


- Although studies have been inconsistent, an emerging consensus appears to suggest that HT may slightly increase the risk for breast cancer. This risk is similar to that associated with natural late menopause, and it comes into effect after at least 5 years of continuous HT.


- evidence from randomized controlled studies showed a definite association between HT and uterine hyperplasia and cancer. HT based on unopposed estrogen is associated with this observed risk, which is unlike the increased risk of breast cancer linked with combined rather than unopposed HT. Continuous combined regimens have not been associated with an increased risk. However, cyclical regimens—even ones involving 10-14 days of progestogens per month—do increase the risk after 5 years of usage.


- combined HT increased the risk of venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, The risk of venous thrombosis increased for women given an estrogen-only regimen

A) Preeclampsia


B) Stillbirth


C) Shoulder dystocia


D) Large for GA

Preeclampsia


Pregestational diabetes mellitus, as seen with T1DM patients, is a well-known risk factor for preeclampsia. The risk of developing preeclampsia in gravid T1DM patients is between 12% to 15%, compared with 5% to 7% in the general population. In patients with preexisting nephropathy the risk rises to as much as 50%. Choice C and D are more common in type 2 DM.

Pregnant woman, if not allergic, by which antibiotics you treat UTI?

A. Ampicillin


B. Sulfametha


C. Nitrofurantoin


D. I think ciprofloxacin

Nitrofurantoin


➤ The most common cause of cystitis is E coli.


➤ Bacteriuria caused by group B streptococcus in pregnancy necessitatesthe use of intravenou


penicillin or ampicillin in labor to decrease the riskof neonatal GBS sepsis.


➤ Pyelonephritis presents with flank tenderness and fever. Pregnant women with pyelonephritis should be hospitalized and treated with intravenous antibiotics, such as ampicillin and gentamicin, or a cephalosporin, such as cefazolin, cefotetan, or ceftriaxone.


➤ Urethritis,commonly caused by ChlamydiaorN


gonorrhea,should be sus-pected with negative


urine cultures and symptoms of a UTI.


➤ Asymptomatic bacteriuria has a high inci


dence in women with sickle cell trait


- cystitis: Trimethoprim/sulfa (Bactrim), nitrofurantoin, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and cephalosporins, such as cephalothin, are effective. Ampicillin is generally not used due to the widespread resistance of E coli.

G3P2+0. Her first visit was on the 20th week of gestation. She has history of two premature deliveries. Her cervical length was 30 mm. What is your appropriate management?

A. Strict bed rest


B. Terminate her pregnancy


C. Immediate cerclage


D. Inject her with progesterone

I think C


Several studies have indicated that the likelihood of preterm delivery increases with decreasing cervical length. A cervical length of 25–30 mm before 32 weeks gestation seems to increase the risk of preterm delivery. If examination and ultrasound show that you have an abnormally short cervix, and you're less than 24 weeks pregnant, your practitioner may recommend “cerclage”, a procedure in which she stitches a band of strong thread around your cervix to reinforce it and help hold it closed. However, there's a lot of controversy about whether cerclage should be used in this situation."

The most accurate diagnostic investigation For ectopic pregnancy ?

A-Culdocentesis


B. Pelvic U/S


C. Endometrial biopsy


D. Serial B-HCG


E. Laparoscopy

Laparoscopy remains the criterion standard for diagnosis; however, its routine use on all patients suspected of ectopic pregnancy, However initial diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is a clinical diagnosis made based upon serial serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) testing and transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS).
Patient g2p1 with twins GA41 weeks , +ve GBS management ?

A. C/s with AROM


B. Acyclovir


C. Prepare forceps for delivery


D. Abx

Abx


Mother must be given Abx to minimize risk of transmission to baby


According to the CDC, if you have tested positive and are not high risk, your chances of delivering a baby with GBS are: 1 in 200 if antibiotics are not given 1 in 4000 if antibiotics are given


To help protect their babies from infection, pregnant women who test positive for group B strep


bacteria in the current pregnancy should receive antibiotics through the vein (IV) during labor.


Antibiotics help to kill some of the group B strep bacteria that are dangerous to the baby during birth.


The antibiotics help during labor only — they cannot be taken before labor, because the bacteria can grow back quickly. Penicillin is the most common antibiotic that is given, but women who are severely allergic to penicillin can be given


other antibiotics. Penicillin is very safe and effective at preventing the spread of group B strep bacteria to newborns during birth. There can be side effects from penicillin for the mother, including a mild reaction to penicillin (in about 1


out of every 10 women).

OCP: A. Decrease the risk of ovarian cancer B. Increase the risk of breast cancer C. Decrease endometrial cancer D. Increase risk of ectopic pregnancy

A. Low salt diet


B. BB


C. Reassure


D. Continue investing

This could be preeclampsia:

- Mild preeclampsia is defined as the presence of hypertension (BLOOD PRESSURE ≥140/90 mm Hg) on 2 occasions, at least 6 hours apart, but without evidence of end-organ damage, in a woman who was normotensive before 20 weeks' gestation. All women who present with new-onset hypertension should have the following tests:


CBC, ALT and AST levels, Serum creatinine, Uric


acid ! 24-hour urine collection for protein and


creatinine (criterion standard) or urine dipstick


- Management: O Delivery is the only cure for preeclampsia. Patients with mild preeclampsia are often induced after 37 weeks' gestation.


O Before this, the patient is usually hospitalized and monitored carefully for the development of worsening preeclampsia or complications of preeclampsia, and the immature fetus is treated with expectant management with corticosteroids to accelerate lung maturity in preparation for early delivery.




In patients with severe preeclampsia, induction of delivery should be considered after 34 weeks' gestation. In these cases, the severity of disease must be weighed against the risks of infant prematurity. In the emergency setting, control of BLOOD PRESSURE (Hydralazine, Labetalol, Nifedipine, Sodium nitroprusside) and seizures (ABC, Magnesium sulfate is the first-line, Lorazepam and phenytoin may be used as second-line).

- Vertex-vertex twins — This presentation accounts for approximately 42 percent of twins [50]. The general consensus is that a trial of labor with the goal of a vaginal delivery of vertex-vertex twins is appropriate at any gestational age


- cesarean delivery when the first twin is not in the vertex presentation


- Vertex-nonvertex twins comprise 38 percent of twins; the nonvertex twin may be breech (26 percent), transverse (11 percent), or oblique (1 percent). Options for delivery include cesarean delivery of both twins, vaginal delivery with cephalic version of the second twin, or vaginal delivery with breech extraction of the second twin.

In perimenopausal period:


- hypothalamic pitutiry activity (raised FSH, later LH)


- decrease/absent progesterone


- unopposed estrogen


These changes result in dysfunctional uterine bleeding (anovulatory), with time insufficient follicles develop with inadequate estrogen to stimulate endometrium and menses cease.

Old lady did hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy histology showed Ovarian germ cell theca something What other findings :

A. chronic salpingitis


B. endometrial hyperplasia


C. uterine navus


D. Cervical something

Endometrial hyperplasia


- Many patients with granuloma theca cell tumor present with manifestations of hyperestrogenism. most common endocrine manifestation of GCTs in postmenopausal women is abnormal uterine bleeding. This is caused by resumption of endometrial proliferation due to estrogen production by the tumor. For this reason, endometrial hyperplasia and/or endometrial adenocarcinoma may be a concomitant finding in women with GCT.

38 years old female had amenorrhea for two months after 1 year of irregularity of the menstrual cycle. She is a mother of 3 children, she has one history of dilatation and curettage after Cesarean section. She has thinning in the vaginal secretion labs were done and shows normal finding except high FSH & LH, low estrogen radiology revealed normal uterus and cervix what is the diagnosis?

A- Premature failure of the ovary


B- Asherman's syndrome


C- Androgenic cause

Premature failure of the ovary

In Primary ovarian insufficiency, ovaries do not regularly release eggs and do not produce enough sex hormones despite high levels of circulating gonadotropins (especially follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH]) in women < 40. Diagnosis is confirmed by high FSH and low estradiol levels. Typically, treatment is with combined estrogen/progestogen therapy.

When you can diagnose the dichorionic twins by ultrasound?

A. Early 2nd trimester


B. Late 2nd trimester


C. 3 rd trimester

Early 2nd T


Accuracy is improved when the assessment of chorionicity is undertaken before 14 weeks' gestation rather than after 14 weeks. The twin peak sign (lambda sign) alone in the second trimester can accurately identify the chorionicity in many cases, but that may not be sufficient. In the second trimester, the twin peak sign becomes more difficult to visualize, and it disappears in about 7% of dichorionic pregnancies.

Primigravida week 16. She is RH negative. What is your next step?

a. US


b. Anti-D Rh immunoglobulin


c. Rh antibody titer

Rh antibody titer

- Rh antibody titer during the initial prenatal visit if she's RH -


Unsensitized patients do not yet have antibodies to Rh positive blood. The goal is to keep it that way:


● So any time that fetal blood cells may cross the placenta, anti-D Rh immunoglobulin (rhogam) are given.


● Prenatal antibody screening is done at 28 and 35 weeks. Patients who continue to be unsensitized at 28 weeks should receive anti-D Rh immunoglobulin prophylaxis.


● At delivery, if the baby is Rh positive, the


mother should be given anti-D Rh immunoglobu


lin again. The patient is considered sensitized if


she has a titer level more than 1:4.


● If the titer is less than 1:16, no further treat


ment is necessary.


● If it reaches 1:16 at any point during the preg


nancy, serial amniocentesis should be done. Ser


ial amniocentesis allows for evaluation of the fe


tal bilirubin level.
