Maternal and Child Nursing OVERVIEW OF THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM  Imperforate FEMALE o May lead to Breast Pseudoamenorrhea/Cryptomenorrhea  Dependent on the ovary for hormones o Management is surgery; put to sleep to prevent  During menopause  stop supply of hormones  prone to damage to vagina cancer  Rigid Mons Pubis o Problem with intercourse Labia o Management is surgery  Serves as a covering  Carunculae Myrtiformes - remnants of hymen after tearing  Majora and minora  Minora - has erectile tissues (clitoris) Doderlein’s bacillus  Normal flora - Clitoris  Bacteria that protects the woman from bacterial infection  Anterior  Makes vagina acidic  Basis for catheterization  Candida albicans (candidiasis) (moniliasis)- most common  Avoid touching the clitoris when inserting the infection in the woman catheter – may cause convulsion in precclamptic o Yeast infection patients o Color (#1 assessment) - Yellowish creamy color - Fourchette o Consistency of discharge: thicker  Posterior of minora o Smell: no smell  Stretch during delivery napupunit o Pruritus  Ritgen’s Maneuver o Vaginal suppository (MICONAZOLE, MONISTAT) o Perineal support  Local effect only o Protect the are from overstretching  Best time to insert the vaginal  Episiotomy suppository: night time  patient not o Prevents laceration upright  drug is dissolved in vagina o Cut during peak of contraction  all the  6 hours for drug to take effect muscles are pulled up and no muscles are  Should report MORE discharge; drug cut and infection (only 1 day) o Should have anesthesia  Only needs a single dose o How many strong contractions before o Effect on Baby: infection on baby’s MOUTH (Oral episiotomy: 3 moniliasis) o Mediolateral- hindi mag eextend to anus but many layers of tissues are affected  Trichomonas vaginalis (Most common incision made) o SMELLY!!!!!!!!! o Median- used for immediate delivery, may o Greenish grayish frothy extend to anus  Gonorrheal - Vestibule o Effect on baby: eyes o Triangle  Chlamydial o Two important openings- 2 (urethra and o Effect on baby: eyes vagina) Cervical Mucus o All openings- 6  From cervical glands - Spinbarkeitt Urethra  Endocervical gland in cervix  Urethral canal is very short  at risk for infection 2 hormones that affects the cervix o 8-10 glasses of fluid / 50% should be plain water  Estrogen  UTI- increase fluids because no matter how much you do  Progesterone perineal care, the proximity of the urethra to still predisposes it to infection Estrogen Progesterone -Dilates the cervix -Closes the cervix *Because of hormone change, pregnant is more at risk for infection -Released before ovulation: -Released on the 16th day  progesterone  decreased renal threshold of sugar  small 14th day -Mucus is decreased in amount, amount leak out  sugar in vagina is good medium for bacterial -Mucus is watery, clear, sticky, cloudy growth stretchy -Spinnbarkheit: 3 cm -Spinnbarkheit: 6-12 cm -Safe Period Vagina -Unsafe period -Ph: 6  Discharge: Fleshy smelling (Normal: 6-8 soaked napkin = -13th day of the 28th day -Hormone that protects the 30ml of blood) cycle

baby Operculum  Has ruggae (folds of muscles) which allow to stretch  Mucus that plugs the cervix  Kegel’s exercise- to promote formation of ruggae  More discharge  formation of mucus plug o Pubo-coccygeal muscle  Protects the baby from possible entry of infection o Contract the muscle to hold the urine, then  “Show”- sign of cervical dilation release the muscle  Cervical dilation-
