OB/Peds Final Exam
Menopause begins when - 12 months after last period
Ovum are viable for how long - 24-48 hours
Spermatozoon are viable for how long - 48-72 hours
How long does it take for an embryo to become a fetus - 8 weeks
What phase of the ovarian cycle is the egg fertilized - luteal phase
Female infertility factors - ovulatory dysfunction, PID, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, cervical mucus
factor, pH imbalance (too acidic)
risk factors for female infertility - -Diabetic
-Excessive alcohol
-Obesity
-Advanced age (35+)
-STI
Risk factors for male infertility - excessive alcohol, cocaine, marijuana use, old age, STIs, smoking
Causative factors of male infertility - hormone deficiencies, gonadotoxins, sperm transport issues
para - number of pregnancies that have reached viability, regardless of infants that were born
,primipara - A woman who has given birth to one child past age of viability
Presumptive signs of pregnancy - subjective, felt by the woman
Probable signs of pregnancy - HCG tests, objective signs observed by the HCP
positive signs of pregnancy - definite signs of pregnancyaudible fetal heartbeat, fetal movement felt by
examiner, ultrasound visualization of fetus
G (gravida) - total number of pregnancies, including current
T (term) - number of pregnancies that were brought to termbetween 38-42 weeks
P (preterm) - Number of pregnancies carried to preterm and kid was delivered between 20-37 weeks
A (abortion) - number of spontaneous and elective abortions, any pregnancy that ends before 20 weeks
L (living) - number of children currently living
M (multiples) - Only added if mom has been pregnant with twins, triplets, etc.
Nagele's rule - LMP minus 3 months plus 7 days
Contraction stress test - fetal HR response to contractions, should go up as contractions occur
, Contraction stress tests are not done until - after 28 weeks
A non-stress tests measures - fetus heart rate in response to its own movement
Non-stress test: reassuring results - 2 accelerations of fetal heart rate in 20 minutes
Amniocentesis tests - a small sample of amniotic fluid for genetic disorders
Chorionic Villus sampling can help determine if a fetus has these abnormalities - down syndrome,
muscular dystrophy
Fetal kick count: reassuring results - 10 kicks in 2 hours, or 4 kicks in one hour
Preterm labor risk factors - previous preterm labor, drinking, drugs, IVF, strenuous job
Preterm labor nursing interventions - increase fluids, restrict activity, treat infections
Preterm labor medications - tocolytics, antibiotics, corticosteroids, magnesium sulfate
If a preterm PROM occurs before 33 weeks, do this - bed rest, betamethasone, antibiotic therapy,
amnioinfusion
Gestational HTN is diagnosed with these values - 140/90 on 2 separate occasions, 4 hours apart
Preeclampsia symptoms - HTN 140/90 or greaterproteinuria, headache, abnormal labs, spots in vision,
thrombocytopenia, PE, crackles
