Question
Answer
Normal temperature range for newborns   36.5-36 axillary (crying may elevate temperature) (stabilizes 8-10 hrs after delivery)  
🗑
Normal HR range for newborns   120-160 B/M (can go as low as 100 when sleeping to 180 when crying) (rate may be irregular with crying) (faint-sounding heartbeat is sign of potential distressed)  
🗑
Normal respiration range for newborns   30-60 breaths per minute (moist breath sounds may be present shortly after birth) be concerned if: apnea > 15 sec, diminished sounds, grunting, nasal flaring, deep sighing, persistent irreg breathing, excess mucus, persistent fine crackles, stridor  
🗑
Normal range for head circumference measurement for newborns   33 to 35 cm (should be 2 to 3 cms larger than the chest) (molding of head may result in a lower measurement)  
🗑
Normal range for chest circumference for newborns   30.5-33 cm (head and chest measurements may be equal for the first 24 to 48 hours of life)  
🗑
Normal weight range for newborns   2500 - 4000 gms  
🗑
Normal length range for newborns   48 to 53 cms  
🗑
Kick Counts test   Mother lies on left side and counts fetal kicks for period of time (usually 1 hr). Pt calls provider or goes to hospital if baby not moving as much as indicated by provider.  
🗑
Nonstress Test   Assess placental function/ oxygenation, indicator of fetal well being. Normal (reactive): 2 or more FHR accelerations of at least 15 bpm, lasting at least 15 sec. in 20 min. Abnormal (nonreactive): No accel. or <15 bpm or lasting < 15 sec occur in 40 min  
🗑
Contraction stress test   Determines if fetus can tolerate labor. Is exposed to contractions to assess placental O2 perfusion during simulated labor conditions. 20-30 min strip w/fetal monitor. Uterus stimulated w/oxytocin or nipple stim. until 3 contractions >or= 40 sec in 10 min  
🗑
Normal Contraction stress test result   Would be negative result. 3 contractions lasting 40 sec in 10 min w/o evidence of late decelerations of FHR  
🗑
Abnormal Contraction Stress Test Result   + result. Late or variable decelerations of FHR w/ @ least 50% or more of the contraxns in the absence of hyperstim. of uterus. Suspicious result: nonpersistent late decels or decels associated w/hyperstim (i.e. contractions q 2 min or last > 90 sec)  
🗑
Biophysical Profile (BPP)   Score on 5 criteria (ultrasound): breathing movements, body ", muscle tone, FHR reactivity & amniotic fluid vol. Normal: 8-10, Need for delivery: < 4  
🗑
When/why is an amniocentesis performed?   2nd trimester: chromosome analysis. 3rd trimester: r/o infection or verify fetal lung maturity  
🗑
Potential risks related r/t amniocentesis   maternal hemorrhage, infection, Rh isoimmuniztion, abruptioplacentae, amniotic fluid emboli, premature rupture of membranes. Notify HCP: chills, fever, leakage @ insertion site, decreased fetal movement, uterine contractions  
🗑
Fetal period   Beginning of 9th wk until birth. Rapid growth and differentiation of tissues, organs, systems. Less vulnerable than embryonic period.  
🗑
Vessels in umbilical cord   One vein, two arteries.  
🗑
Wharton's Jelly   Protects umbilical cord from compression  
🗑
Placental hormones   Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin, Human Placental Lactogen, Progesterone, Estrogen  
🗑
Amnion vs chorion in the embryo   Amnion: inner membrane, contains amniotic fluid Chorion: Outer membrane, forms fetal portion of placenta  
🗑
Fetal heart begins to beat by _________ week   End of third week  
🗑
Umbilical vein   Blood from placenta to fetus  
🗑
Ductus venosus   Allows fetal circulation to bypass of the liver in utero, opening allows blood pass from umbilical vein to superior vena cava  
🗑
Foramen ovale   Opening in fetal heart between atria, which allows blood to bypass the lungs, so that most of the oxygenated blood goes to the brain first  
🗑
Ductus arteriosus   Opening in fetal pulmonary artery directly into aorta, so blood can bypass lungs (is already oxygenated) and head straight to the brain  
🗑
Mom should be feeling fetal movement by week   17  
🗑
Fetus starts to produce surfactant by week ___________   24  
🗑
Fetal lungs generally developed by week _________   36  
🗑
Fetus considered potentially viable at week ________   26  
🗑
Monozygotic twins   Identical twins. Does not run in families, the division of the zygote is a coincidence, which occurs by the end of the first week.  
🗑
Dizygotic twins   fraternal twins. Can run in families, due to hyperovulation  
🗑
Neonatal hypoglycemia   <40-45. s&s: jitteriness, resp distress, poor suck, low temp, lethargy or diabetic mother BG  
🗑
By 2 hrs of age, the newborn should:   Be awake, meet mom and dad. Breathe unassisted. Maintain temp w/in normal range. Eat (breast w/in 1st hr). Sleep after 1st period of reactivity. Void or have meconium stool by 24 hrs.  
🗑
Baby considered preterm if delivered at < _________ wks   37  
🗑
Baby postterm if delivered > ____ weeks   42  
🗑
