Study Notes

Instructional Module in NCM 107

  • Course Title: Care of Mother and Child Nursing (Wellness) Related Learning Experience
  • Lecturer: Rowena B. Lamorena
  • Course Code: NCM 107 RLE Skills Laboratory
  • Course Description: Principles and techniques for caring for normal mothers, infants, children, and families, focusing on family and family health nursing processes. This module focuses on prenatal care, especially Leopold's Maneuver and fundal height measurement.
  • Course Outcomes: Students will be able to perform Leopold's Maneuver, assess fetal position and presentation, interpret clinical significance, differentiate fetal positions/presentations, and document findings in medical records accurately.

Prenatal Care: Leopold's Maneuver and Fundal Height

  • Prenatal care: Care provided for pregnant individuals to ensure health of both mother and fetus. Aims to monitor pregnancy progress, identify potential complications, and provide interventions. Prenatal visits involve physical exams, screenings, and tests. It monitors vital signs, fundal height, weight gain, and fetal heart rate. Interventions and education are essential.
  • Leopold's Maneuver: A set of four maneuvers used to determine fetal position and presentation. These maneuvers involve palpating the mother's abdomen to assess the baby's location.
  • Fundal Height: The distance from the pubic symphysis (the bony part at the front of the pelvis) to the top of the uterus. It is measured in centimeters. Measuring fundal height helps estimate gestational age, which is the time elapsed since the first day of the last menstrual period.

Prenatal Care: Other Important Information

  • Regular Check-ups: Regular appointments with healthcare providers.
  • Health Assessments: Physical exams, screenings, tests for pregnant person and fetus.
  • Screening and Testing: Blood tests, ultrasounds, genetic screenings, checks for gestational diabetes and pregnancy-induced hypertension.
  • Nutrition and Lifestyle Guidance: Pregnant individuals receive guidance on healthy diet and physical activity.
  • Education and Counseling: Education and advice on changes in pregnancy and postpartum care.
  • Monitoring Fetal Development: tracking fetal growth and development, using Leopold's maneuvers, ultrasounds, and fetal heart rate monitoring.
  • Identification and Management of Complications: Identifying and managing complications such as preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, or preterm labor.
  • Birth Planning: Assisting with a birth plan to outline preferences for labor, delivery, and postpartum care.
  • Postpartum Preparation: Preparing for recovery, breastfeeding, and newborn care.
  • Medical terms related to pregnancy status: Gravida, Para, Primigravida, Primipara, Multigravida, Multipara, Nulligravida, Estimated Date of Confinement(EDC). Age of Gestation (AOG), Estimated Date of Delivery (EDD).
  • Pathological states that may mimic pregnancy: Pseudocyesis (false pregnancy), ectopic pregnancy, ovarian tumors/cysts, molar pregnancy and hormonal imbalances.

Additional Recommendations

  • Low-dose aspirin for high-risk pre-eclampsia.
  • Ultrasound.
  • Mental health screening for mental health conditions in pregnancy and postpartum.
  • HIV and syphilis testing.
  • Recommended vaccines during pregnancy (Tdap, influenza, COVID-19).
  • Vaccines to avoid during pregnancy (MMR, Varicella).
  • Determining estimated birthing dates, including Naegele's Rule. (used to estimate the date of delivery).
  • McDonald's/ Johnson's Rule to determine fetal weight.
  • Leopold's maneuvers, including steps for each maneuver and procedures.
