Study These Flashcards
A

VZV infection

25
can be dx clinically or with a PCR
VZV (PCR is of the vesicle base)
26
when is VariZIG used?
* PROPHYLAXIS ONLY * preterm of <28 weeks always * preterm >28 wks if exposed if mom isnt immunized * exposed to mom who has it 5days prior to 2 days after birth. (this is up to date because i could not understand the slides oml)
27
s/s include arthropathy, fetal anemia, myocarditis and a rash
parvo B19 (rash = slapped cheeks)
28
dx is serologic IgG and IgM testing via umbilical cord blood sample.
Parvo B19
29
once this infection is found, mother must recieve US weekly to assess for signs of hydrops fetalis
Parvo B19
