Placenta over cervical os

Placenta previa

Painless bleeding after 20 weeks

Placenta previa

Dx with U/S prior to any manual exam

Placenta previa, however must also U/S on suspected abruptio placenta to be sure you don't worsen a Placenta previa

Premature separation of placenta from decidua

Abruptio placenta

Painful bleed after 20 weeks

Abruptio placenta

Dx clinically

Abruptio placenta

Common causes of 3rd trimester bleeding

Abruptio placenta, Placenta previa

Tx for Placenta previa

Expectant management, hemodynamic support


When fetus mature MUST deliver by C-section

Tx for placental abruption

Hemodynamic support


If patient is stable = vaginal induction


If fetus in distress = urgent c-section

When should Rho-GAM be given in pregnancy?

- At 28 weeks and within 72 hours of delivery


- After abortion, stillbirth, ectopic pregnancy


- After any procedures that cause transplacental hemorrhage, such as amniocentesis and CVS.

Tx if maternal Rh antibody titer is high?

None. Sensitization has occurred, RhoGAM is of no use.


Close monitoring of fetus for hemolytic dz.

Who's at lowest risk of Rh incompatibility?

First pregnancy, sensitization has not occurred

WHY should you give RhoGAM

If mom is Rh- and dad is either Rh+ or unknown.


Cannot wait for antibodies, you'll be too late.

Criteria for an adequate 4 quadrant amniotic fluid index (AFI)?

Divide belly into 4 quadrants, measure depth of AF in each quadrant, using deepest point in each, sum all 4 numbers

* >5 = normal AFI
* Reassuring is 8-25
* < 5 is oligohydramnios (not enough fluid)
* > 25 is polyhydramnios (too much)

What is value of maternal alpha fetal protein between 16-19/15-20 weeks?

If it's LOW (Downs, fetal demise, inaccurate dating)



If it's HIGH (neural tube dfx, ventral wall dfx, multiple gestation, inaccurate dating)

When should genetic amniocentesis be offered?

if AFP high


US uncertain


+ Downs screen in 2nd trimester

What's an NST? CST? Difference between them?

Non-stress test


Contraction stress test



Presence of contractions

Criteria for a REACTIVE NST?

Moderate variability and normal FHR (120-150)


Accelerations follow 15/15/2-20 rule

15/15/2-20 rule

15 BPM accelerations


Lasting 15 seconds


Occurring 2x in 20 mins

Criteria for a Negative CST?

Baby's decelerations are LATE +/- fetal bradycardia (<110)

Reassuring CST?

3 contractions in 10 mins show: early or variable decels, good FHR

Tx for non-reassuring CST?

Of at 0 or less, c-section


+1/+2 use forceps/vaccuum

If baby fails NST what's next?

Try vibroacoustic stim (wake up baby) and try again


Else, biophysical profile

What composes the BPP?

NST results


AFI


U/S: breathing, mm tone, overall movement



all worth 2 points

AFI?

Amniotic fluid index

Tx for BPP

Equal or <2? C-section


Equal or >8? Reassurance



3-7? Get a CST

Reassuring AFI score?

8-25

What's considered normal AFI

>5

What is AFI for oligohydramnios

<5

What is AFI for polyhydramnios

>25

Symmetrical IUGR defined as

20-25%, AKA global growth restriction


Fetus affected early on, developed slowly throughout pregnancy, baby's parts are proportional

Symmetrical IUGR d/t

TORCH infxn, chromosomal issues, anemia, FAS

Asymmetrical IUGR defined as

70%, more common


Restriction of weight, then length; big head, typically d/t issues in 3rd trimester



(warning: per Wiki)

Asymmetrical IUGR d/t

Mom's chronic HTN, genetic issues, Ehlers-Danlos



(warning: per Wiki)

Determination of EDC?

Nagele's rule


LMP + 7 days + 1 year- 3m
