Study Notes
Violence Against Women
- Signs and symptoms of intimate partner violence are noted for screening
- Appropriate screening techniques (SAVE Model, Abuse Assessment Screening) are part of the exam prep
Chronic Conditions
- Diabetes and Testing:
- Gestational diabetes risk factors, screening (24-28 weeks, high-risk early testing)
- Abnormal glucose tolerance results
- Complications include macrosomia, hypoglycemia, congenital anomalies, ketoacidosis, and difficult labor
- Dietary management is crucial: meal planning, exercise, and medication if necessary
- Infections:
- Rubella: Transmission and fetal effects (congenital cataracts, cardiac defects, hearing loss)
- Cytomegalovirus (CMV): Transmission and fetal risks (hearing loss, intellectual disability)
- Group B Streptococcus (GBS): Screening (35-37 weeks), and resultant neonatal complications (sepsis, pneumonia, meningitis)
- HIV: Transmission, labor considerations (avoiding invasive procedures, viral load determines delivery method)
- Cardiac Conditions in Pregnancy:
- Increased cardiac output exacerbating conditions
- Monitoring for decompensation (shortness of breath (SOB), chest pain, rapid respirations)
- Anemia in Pregnancy:
- Iron deficiency anemia risk factors, symptoms (fatigue, tachycardia, pica), treatment (iron supplements, vitamin C intake)
