hyperandrogenism
17-hydroxyprogesteone 24 hour urine cortisol Prolactin/TSH Testosterone/DHEA
AUB
Pregnancy test (number one) CBC coagulopathies panel (von willibrand factor) TSH Chlamydia trachomatis diagnostic imaging
Not bleeding + no sexual development: next step
FSH/LH
Not bleeding + sexual development traits: next step
US for uterus
FSH and LH < 5, primary
hypo hypo
FSH and LH, 20/40
hyper-hypo, turners, ovarian failure depending on karypt
Prenatal labs at first visit
Pregnancy Test Complete blood count Type and screen Rh negative patients receive Rhogam at 28 weeks & anytime sensitization may occur Rubella‐vaccinate postpartum if not immune Syphilis (RPR) Hepatitis B surface Ag HIV Cervical cytology and gonorrhea and chlamydia Screen for diabetes based on risk factors Urine culture
first trimester screening
- Maternal age
- Fetal (nuchal translucency (NT) thickness (echo free area at the back of the fetal neck between 10 and 14 weeks)- Increased thickness associated with both chromosomal and congenital anomalies
- Maternal serum b‐human chorionic gonadotropin (b‐hCG)
- Pregnancy associated plasma protein‐A (PAPP-A)
Elevated Beta HCG and low PAPP‐A
associated with Down’s syndrome
3 factors to achieve 93% detection rate for Down’s S in first trimester
- nuchal translucancy
- biochemical markers
- nasal bone (absence indicates increased risk for Down’s)
nuchal translucency
“triple screen”
second semester: hCG, estriol, AFP
quadruple screen
AFP, estriol, hCG, inhibin B
80% detection of Down’s
elevated HCG, or AFP and low levels of PAPP‐A or estriol can be found with
preterm birth, intrauterine growth restriction, and preeclampsia
Noninvasive Prenatal testing: Cell-Free DNA
when is it used, what can it detect?
-
9 ‐ 10 weeks: can be performed in the 1st or 2nd trimester)
- Tests cell free fetal DNA
- Detection rates
- Tests cell free fetal DNA
- Trisomy 21 = 99.4%
- Trisomy 18,= 99.1%
- Trisomy 13= 91.7%
- Sex chromosomes ( 45X, 47XXX, 47XXY, 47XYY)= 96.2% X & Y chromosomes
test for neuroal tube defects with CFDNA?
NO. Continue to evaluate for NTD with Maternal serum alpha0fetoprotein or ultrasound
RFs indicating CFDNA should be ordered and subsequent labs if (+)
increased maternal age, previous trisomy, US suggestive of aneuploidy, confirmed chromosomal defects, or if a + with first tri, triple or quad testings—-> confirm with aminocentesis or CVS
second trimester diagnostic testing
- aminocentesis @ 16/20 wks (.3 % miscarriage)
- chorionic villi sampling @ 11 wks (1% miscarriage)
