NUR 241 test 2 8-14 Questions
with complete verified
solutions(GRADED A+)
Amniotic membranes in the 3rd trimester - answer -Amnion- inner
layer "amnion touches the amniotic fluid"
-Chorion- outer layer
-very close together but can be separated and forms a sac that
contains the fetus and amniotic fluid
Amniotic fluid in the 3rd trimester - answer -derived from fetal urine
and fluid from moms blood across the amnion
-slightly alkaline
-normal volume 700-1000ml
-oligohydramnios <400ml
-hydramnios/polyhydramios >2000ml
-babies kidney function will get tested after birth if there is too
much or little fluid
Contents of amniotic fluid (may be SATA) - answer albumin, urea,
uric acid, creatinine, *Lecithin, sphingomyelin, (major components
of surfactant, testing levels tells us how developed babies lungs
are)* Bilirubin, fat, vernix, lanugo, leukocytes, protein, fructose
Functions of amniotic fluid (will be a SATA) - answer -Medium of
movement
-Protection from trauma
-Temperature regulation
-Floats the cord
-Prevents the membranes from adhering to the fetus
, What are the 3 major openings that act as a bypass in fetal
circulation - answer -Ductus Venosus- Liver
-Ductus Arteriosis- Pulmonary Artery and Aorta
-Foramen Ovale- Atria
Ultrasound/sonogram in 1st trimester - answer -Use in first
Trimester:
-Usually a vaginal US
-Estimate Gestational Age (if mom is unsure of when she got preg)
-Nuchal Translucency testing (11-14 weeks)
-Viability (if you have spotting)
-Location
-During amniocentesis
*not a routine testing done at every visit*
When to empty bladder/have full bladder per ultrasound - answer -
vaginal u/s- empty bladder
-abdominal u/s- full bladder
Abbreviations to know - answer -BPD- biparietal diameter (measure
top of babies head)
- >9cm= mature
-AFV-amniotic fluid volume
-AFI-amniotic fluid index
-CRL-crown rump length (back of babies head to base of spine)
-FL-femur length
-AC- abdominal circumference
