first trimester week range
1-13 weeks
what is gestational age?
age from LMP so conception + 14 days
what is fetal age?
age from date of conception
Naegele’s Rule equation
LNMP + 7 days – 3 months + 1 year
Estimated Delivery Date (EDD)
when does nausea start(weeks)
6-12 weeks
when does fetal heart tones start(week)
11 weeks
when does quickening start (week)
15-18 weeks
Which trimester ultrasound in more accurate for dating
1st trimester
when would you see a gestational sac
5 weeks
when would you visualize yolk sac
5-6 weeks
when would you see early embryonic pole with cardiac activity
6 weeks
Suggested Protocol
- Survey uterus and determine fetal number.
- Observe fetal cardiac activity
- Determine fetal position(s) and placental location(s).
- Check cervix and lower uterine segment.
- Survey for uterine or adnexal masses.
- Assess amniotic fluid.
- Perform anatomy survey of each fetus.
- Perform biometric measurements of each fetus.
3 different fetal lie
longitudinal, oblique, transverse
4 different fetal presentation
- Cephalic
- Breech
* Complete
* Incomplete
* Frank - Oblique
* Where is the fetal head? - Transverse
* Head to the right or left?
Fetal Presentation
different types of breech positions
complete
incomplete
frank
what is prolapsed cord?
cord comes into vaginal canal before baby
1st OB lab at gvltec
- Determine fetal position/lie and placental location.
- Observe (visual check) fetal cardiac activity
- Check cervix and lower uterine segment (LUS).
The LUS with a measurement of the cervix should be the first
image you take. - Perform biometric measurements of each fetus.
Obtain in the following order: BPD, HC, AC, and FL.
You should be able to complete these twice! - Perform anatomy survey of the fetus with remaining time.

Protocol for DMS 165
What is Cervical Incompetence
Spontaneous, painless
dilatation of the cervix
normal cervical length
greater than 3cm
acronym for incompetent cervixes
Trust
Your
Vaginal
Ultrasound
what is funneling
amniotic sac going into birth canal
What is Biparietal Diameter (BPD)
Diameter of the fetus’ head from one parietal bone to the other.
where is the Head
Circumference (HC) took from
Taken at the same level as the BPD
intracranial landmarks for head measurements
- Falx cerebri anteriorlyand posteriorly and
perpendicular to sound. (horizontal on the screen) - Cavum septi pellucidi anteriorly in the midline
- Choroid plexus of the lateral ventricle-(not always seen).
- Thalami imaged equidistant from the
lateral walls of the calvarium
