OB Exam 3

OB Chapter 20

QuestionAnswer
Diabetes in Pregnancy Type 1 or Pregestional Diabetes vs. Gestational Diabetes
endocrine disruption in pregnancy is natural
1st trimester increased use of glucose
2nd trimester increased insulin-resistance
why is there an increased insulin resistance in 2nd trimester increased peripheral resistance to insulin AND compensatory increase in insulin secretion Controlled by placental hormones & other metabolic
as baby grows, glucose demand increases
as glucose demand increases, insulin resistance increases
as insulin resistance increases, there is a compensatory increase in insulin secretion
Pre- gestational Diabetes Type 1 Type 2 (more common) Associated w/ morbidity & mortality
Gestational Diabetes Carb intolerance acquired in pregnancy 10% of all pregnancies Associated w/ neonatal complications at birth & long-term maternal consequences
Pregestational Diabetes: risk and complications Miscarriage Macrosomia HTN / Preeclampsia / PTL Polyhydramnios Infections Ketoacidosis Hypoglycemia Perinatal mortality Congenital malformations Birth injuries C/S
Gestational Diabetes risk factors Ethnicity (Hispanic, Black, Native American) Family hx diabetes Obesity HTN Glycosuria Older age
Gestational Diabetes complications Preeclampsia C/S Type 2 diabetes later in life Birth injuries (macrosomia)
peak insulin resistance is 24-28 wks, increases as gestation moves forward
Pregestational antepartum care assessment PRE – conception counseling for attainment of glycemic control HbA1C < 7% : the GOAL Maternal labwork Fetal testing!
Gestational antepartum care assessment Risk analysis in 1st trimester Glucose tolerance test (2nd trimester): 24-28 weeks pregnancy
Pregestational Diabetes: Management Diet & Exercise: RD appt Pharmacologic Management: Insulin Maternal & Fetal Surveillance: Frequent visits & testing Management during labor & birth: glucose monitoring q1-2 hours and lucose monitoring newborn per protocol after birth
Gestational Diabetes: Therapeutic Management Lifestyle Modifications Glucose monitoring Pharmacologic Management Maternal & Fetal Surveillance Management during labor & birth
Lifestyle Modifications for GDM Diet & Exercise RD appt
Glucose monitoring for GDM Frequent screening
Pharmacologic Management for GDM Insulin Glyburide or Metformin (oral)
Maternal & Fetal Surveillance for GDM NSTs (32 wks)
Management during labor & birth for GDM Glucose monitoring q1-2 hours Glucose monitoring newborn per protocol after birth
Diabetes: Nursing Assessment Identify risk factors Physical examination Surveillance
Surveillance of Mom for GDM Urine check for protein, nitrates, leukocyte esterase, and ketones Kidney function evaluation every trimester Eye examination in the first trimester HgbA1C every 4 to 8 weeks to monitor glucose trends
Surveillance of Baby for GDM ultrasound to provide information about fetal growth, activity, and amniotic fluid volume and to validate gestational age
inutero infections toxoplasma other agents (syphilis) rubella cytomegalovirus HSV
intrapartum infections GBS hep B virus HIV
perinatal infections can cause impaired growth developmental anomalies mortality
inutero infections are contracted via transplacentally or via RoM
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) most common perinatal viral infection in the world Leading cause of hearing loss & intellectual disability in the US
Herpes (HSV) antivirals in pregnancy- Acyclovir spontaneous abortion, birth anomalies, IUGR, or preterm labor neurological impairment & death
Toxoplasmosis Parasitic infection congenital anomalies & fetal death
Hepatitis B Virus all pregnant women should be tested for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) Newborn will receive Hep B vaccine w/in 12 hrs after birth
Varicella Zoster Virus Establish maternal immunity Associated with severe illness for mother & newborn in herpes family and if person have chicken pox they may have increased immunity
Parvovirus B19 “fifth disease” - will have red cheeks Can lead to severe fetal complications or death Prevention is key bc there is no immunization Can have respiratory complications, transmitted by saliva
HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus) Decisions need to be made about drug therapies, mode of delivery, feeding method of newborn Education and support
HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus) Decisions need to be made about drug therapies, mode of delivery, feeding method of newborn Education and support If lower viral load, they will be ojay
Vulnerable Populations Adolescents, Advanced Maternal Age, Obesity
Pregnant Adolescent health risks increased risk for anemia, preeclampsia, instrumental delivery, preterm birth, low birth weight, fetal growth restriction, postpartum depression, and maternal and infant mortality compared with pregnant people aged 20 and older
Pregnant Adolescent social risks lower socioeconomic status, fewer years of education, and increased risk of intimate partner violence
Pregnant Adolescent unique challenges increased risk of mood and behavioral disorders, cognitive and learning problems, early sexual activity, and early parenthood increased prevalence of alcohol ingestion and cigarette smoking
Pregnant Adolescent nursing management pt 1 Assist adolescent in identifying family and friends who want to be involved and provide support Help adolescent identify the options for this pregnancy, such as abortion, self-parenting, foster care for baby or themself or adoption
Pregnant Adolescent nursing management pt 2 Explore with the adolescent if the pregnancy was planned or unintended Identify barriers to seeking prenatal care Monitor maternal and fetal well-being throughout pregnancy and labor Stress that the patient’s physical well-being is important
Vulnerable Populations: Advanced Maternal Age is greater than 35 years old
advanced maternal age is associated with a higher risk of complications in pregnancy like premature rupture of membrane, retained placenta/placental fragments, severe perineal tear grade 3/4, placental abruption, chorioamnionitis, puerperal fever, maternal intensive care unit admission, and prolonged hospitalization
advanced maternal age can cause risks to fetus/NB pt 1 intrapartum intrauterine fetal death (IUFD), 5-min Apgar score below 7, birth asphyxia, congenital malformations, being LGA, meconium aspiration, jaundice
advanced maternal age can cause risks to fetus/NB pt 2 transient tachypnea of the newborn, brachial plexus injury, mechanical ventilation, seizures, hypoglycemia, sepsis, encephalopathy, and intracranial hemorrhage
nursing management of advanced maternal age Daily intake of low-dose aspirin (81 mg/day) for the prevention of preeclampsia A first-trimester detailed fetal anatomic ultrasound An additional ultrasound for growth assessment one time in the third trimester
obesity mother complications miscarriage, gestational diabetes or HTN, preeclampsia, PTB, delivery complications, VTE, C/S delivery, PPH
obesity mother management lower body weight & inflammation prior to pregnancy diet, exercise, & behavior modification
obesity mother nursing considerations nonjudgemental care support interventions aimed at reducing weight prior to pregnancy - EBP care
substance misuse mothers Substance misuse is prevalent and underdiagnosed Increases risk of maternal complications & poor birth outcomes
substances that can be misused alcohol cannabis opioids/heroin psychotherapeutic drugs nicotine
alcohol affect Spontaneous abortion, inadequate weight gain, IUGR, FASD (the leading cause of intellectual disability)
cannabis affect Vasoconstriction and mild diuresis in pregnant person; fetal stimulation, but teratogenic effects not documented via research
nicotine affect Vasoconstriction, reduced uteroplacental blood flow, decreased birth weight, spontaneous abortion, prematurity, placental abruption, fetal demise
opioids/heroin affect Maternal and fetal withdrawal, placental abruption, preterm labor, premature rupture of membranes, perinatal asphyxia, newborn sepsis and death, intellectual impairment, malnutrition
psychotherapeutic drugs affect Central nervous system depression, newborn withdrawal, maternal seizures in labor, neonatal abstinence syndrome, delayed lung maturity
fetal alcohol syndrome low nasal bridge short palpebral fissures short nose flat midface receding jaw thin upper lip minor ear abnormalities epicanthal folds
Vulnerable Populations: Substance Misuse – Nursing Assessment Routine screening & education Questionnaires to reduce stigma Urine tox screen – varied usefulness
Vulnerable Populations: Substance Misuse – Nursing Management Key to success is being NONJUDGEMENTAL! Interventions need to be tailored to individual needs Positive drug screen may warrant referral to state agency depending on laws
