Anemia cut-offs are different depending on Trimester
twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS)
Conteero classification
Fetoscopy
Therapeutic
Cell-Free DNA
Non invasive prenatal testing
If positive amniotic testing and chorionic villi sampling are indicated one after 10 weeks -Contraindicated in twins
Useless for neural tube defect
INVASIVE PROCEDURES
Complications: Cramping, Bleeding or leaking of amniotic fluid, injury or infection, loss of pregnancy, premature labor, alloimmunization
Amniocentesis
Can be for NTD
Chorionic Villus
Must be fetal part of the Placenta
Indications: -Positive Combined Test in first trimester -Positive triple and quadruple trimester in second trimester (do amniocentesis) -If sibling has previous chromosomal disorders -In older females
Nuchal Translucency
Used to rule out risk for aneuploidy and cardiac disease
45-84 Cm (10 to 14 weeks) -Head must be in full view, and fetus in neutral position -Mid sagittal view, widest diameter
Useless for neural tube defects
diagnostic
Gives definitive diagnosis
thickened
Risk measured based on a plot with Crown Rump Length Generally cut off is over 25 ml
screening
Test to measure risk
obstetrical ultrasound.
CRL in the first trimester From the crown (Highest point) to the Rump (Lowest Point)
BPD in the second trimester (Biparietal Diameter: Between the two parietal bones) The aforementioned are in the ??? view
Head circumference (HC) Abdominal Circumference (AC): Requires 2 ribs in the view and other things Femur Length (FL): View from diaphysis to diaphysis
Pregnancy bleeding
Differential: Local or External OR Pregnancy Related -Cervical Ectopia, Lacertion, Lost Pregnancy Cervical Ectopia is IMPORTNAT (INTRA VS EXTRA Uterine) Viability of Fetus
Prior to PV we need to do US to rule out Placenta Privea if there is vaginal bleeding
Multiple gestation
Number of Placentas too
Biggest Pocket is measured Polyhydraminos >8 Oligohyraminos <3?
Doppler
Can also be used in ductus venosus
Transvaginal sonogram
Has a condom Dating Accuracy is higher than transabdominal
Transabdominal sonogram
Hard in inverted uterus, or fibroids
Anteverted Head
maternal BMI
Used in obesity
Unsafe
Alive Vaccines
Safe
Killed vaccines
Fetal compromise
Or oligohydraminos
elevated hCG levels
In molar pregnancy and choriocarcinoma also
Headaches
Could be due to preeclampsia
Carpal tunnel:
Due to edema
Bloody show
Vaginal passage of bloody mucous
weeks
Preeclampsia is more than 140/90
incompetent cervix
Shortening of cervical length, less than of 2.5 and abnormal funneling
Obstetrical history
Gravida Parity Abortion
GPA
Basal body temperature chart
Accuracy up to 1 week, no longer used
Naegele’s rule: Assuming 28-day cycles, a due date can be estimated as the LMPminus 3 months + 7 days
Example: Menses 20/7/2023 Thus: 20+7/7-3/2024 =27/4/2024
Accuracy depends on duration of Menses
Ultrasound
Some thing are visible at different ages
Heart at 6 week Yolk sac 5 weeks and 4 days
Crown Rump length - Weeks per Cms
Booking visit: Determine gestational age Early on the US datings are the most accurate -Later on, aging gets less acccurate
1–35 days.Prenatal Management of theNormal Pregnancy 4
Difference because luteal and follicular phases are variable
Theearlier the gestational age, the more accurate the dating.
The earlier the first date of the visit the more accurate it is
Positive signs
Definitive signs, fetus related
Probable signs
Related to Uterus and mother's feeling
Presumptive
Unrelated to the fetus or uterus
amenorrhea
Missed Menstrual Cycle
