|---|---|---|
| Preterm labor prevention: single gestation (not twins) and history that was preterm | Start progesterone at 16-24 weeks and through 34 weeks Hydroxyprogesterone caproate 250mg IM weekly | MOA: blocks calcium channels and reduces contraction-promotion proteins in uterus |
| To prevent/stop uterine contractions | Tocolytic therapy: nifedipine, indomethacin, magnesium sulfate, terbutaline | not long term therapy used to stop contractions while steroids kick in indo preferred when MgS is given before 32 weeks terbutaline has a boxed warning NO ORAL USE (will literally kill you) and can only use IV for 48-72 hours CI in weak fetus |
| To treat potential intrauterine infections in preterm deliveries | Give antibiotics if PROM (premature rupture of membranes) occurs before 34 weeks IV ampicillin and erythromycin IV 2 days PO 5 days 7 day treatment if allergic pick another strep agent (cefazolin or clinda) | do not use augmentin (amox/clav) |
| To help with fetal lung maturation | Give steroids to pts 24-34 weeks who are at risk of preterm birth in next 7 days give betamethasone of dexamethasone | can use multiple times if 7-14 days between before 34 weeks |
| For fetal neuroprotection | Magnesium sulfate decreases cerebral palsy chance and severity in babies expected before 32 weeks | ACOG recommend hospital specific guidelines |
| cervical ripening | Prostglandin agonists: dinoprostone (PGE2) or misoprostol (PGE1) (oral option) oxytocin (pitocin) | prostglandin MOA: soften cervix and increase contractions (can cause tachysystole >5 per minute) - dont use in pts with uterine scar monitor contractions and fetal HR |
| cervical ripening | oxytocin (pitocin) | Oxytocin MOA: increases Ca release to contract uterine muscles, can cause water intox low dose = hemorrage high dose = tachysystole monitor contrations an fetal HR |
| antibiotic prophylaxis (GBS) for labor and delivery | Penicillin G or ampicillin load dose then q4h until delivery Allergic to PCn: low risk - cefazolin, high risk clinda (if suseptible) or vanco | Minimum of 4 hours therapy is recommended |
| pain management during L&D | Nitrous oxide | almost instant acting, self admin through mask, control of labor, light effect and risk |
| pain management during L&D | systemic opioids: fentanyl, morphine, nalbuphine, butorphanol PCA, IM, bolus IV | increased risk of neonatal respiratory depression given close to delivery |
| pain management during L&D | neuraxial anesthesia: epidural, spinal, spinal epidural, dural punture epidural can add opioid for better results | hypotension, post puncture headache, fever , can prolong labor |
| pain management during L&D | peripheral anesthesia: paracervical block provides anesthesia to cervix and uterus prudendal block gives anesthesia to perineum, vulva and lower vagina) - used in second stage of labor (not common) | |
| Postpartum hemmorhage Prevention | Oxytocin (prevention and treatment) with or soon after delivery of anterior shoulder, controlled cord traction to deliver placenta, uterine massage after delivery of placenta | can give carboprost or methylgonovine(contractions and vasoconstriction) misoprostol if oxytocin not available or tranexamic acid (inhibits breakdown of fibrin) |
| Initiating COC (Comibined oral contraceptive) | High dose EE = 50mcg - for women on enzyne inducers low dose = 30-35mcg - most common ultra low 20mcg or below - used for teens and perimenopausal women | |

| Progestin only contraception (POP) | Norethindrone 0.35mg Drospirenone 4 mg (slynd) Norgestrel 0.075 mg (Opill) | minipills MOA: thicken cervical mucous couseling: norethindrone and noregstrel use back up for 48 hours if you miss your 3 hour window drospirenone: use backup for 7 days if over 24 hours between pills immediate return to fertility |
| Opill = OTC POP | norgestrel 0.075mg daily no placebo | changes is mentral bleeding, period effects, dont use in breast cancer use back up for 48 horus if you miss your hours window, or if vomiy/diarhea within 4 hours of dose |
| Progestin injection | 150 o r104mg medroxyprogesterone acetate (provera) | MOA: progestin so high it inhibits ovulation BBW: osteoporosis if used over 2 years, weight gain, amenorrhea, increase glucose, LDL., thrombosis risk of meningiomas IM or SQ delayed fertility return (10m) |
