profuse clear and thin, the pH of this mucous is also more basic than any other phase this cervical mucous will also stretch 6 cm when spread vertically on a slide (i.e. spinnbarkerit)

fetal growth restriction can be both
- symmetrical and asymmetrical
- if it is symetrical (usually resulting from TORCH or genetic anomolies) then the restriction occurs before
- - - 28 weeks.

asymetric FGR is characterized by
- normal head circumference (spared) and reduced abdominal curcumference
the most reliable indicator of calculating fetal size is
is abdominal circumference since it is reduced in both symmetric and asymetric FGR
occurs in postmenopausal females as a result of decreased estrogen levels

- dopamine

Describe the management of acute preterm labor in an otherwise normal pregnancy?
- systemic corticosteroids are administered when the gestational age is between 24-34 weeks (this decreases the risk of RDS) next tocolysis should be attempted with the goal being to maintain pregnancy for at least 48 hours in order to realize maximum benefit from the steroids...bed rest and tocolysis are continued as long as possible with a long term goal of reaching 34 - 36 weeks

what is the definition of IUFD?
intrauterine fetal demise is characterized by death of a fetus in utero that occurs after 20 weeks gestation and before the induction of labor, IFUD can cause a cogulopathy
risks for endometritis are
prolonged labor > 12 hours, prolonged rupture of membranes > 24 hours, c-section and the use of electrodes
treatment of endometritis entails

in ovarian failure the elevation of FSH is
greater than LH because FSH takes longer to be cleared from the blood.
Definition of premature ovarian failure is
elevation in the setting of three months of amenorrhea in a woman below the age of 40
- that does the NST measure?
mesasures increases in FHR, over a span of 20 minutes
what is a CST?
measures the response of the fetal heart rate to contractions, if no contractions occur they are induced by oxytocin (and its called an OCT), a NEGATIVE result is normal, i.e. a normal fetus should be able to compensate for UPI which occurs in the setting of a contraction
f an OCT is postive what is next?
- a BPP must be performed
what are the variable is a BPP and how are they scored?
scores are given either 0 (absent) or 2 (present the five variables are a NST, Normal Fetal breathin (one positive breathing movement of 30 seconds or more in 30 minutes), fetal movement (three or more discrete movements in 30 minutes), Fetal tone (extension with return to flexion or opening or closing of the hand)), Quantification of amniotic fluid (at least a 2cm pocket seen on two planes) must have a score of 8/10 to be considered a success. A score of 6 is equivocal and should lead to delivery if at term.
what is a modified BPP?
combines the use of a NST with a AFI (amniotic fluid index)
