34
tx for acute pyelo in preg?
hospitalize and IV abx (B lactams, metopenem) avoid aminoglycosides if possible change to 10-14 days course oral abx after afebrile 24 hrs
35
why is oxytocin not effective in stim uterine contraction/expelling retained pocs during T1 or T2?
there are few oxytocin receptors in the uterus during early pregnancy
36
how does atrophic vaginitis contribute to urinary urgency, frequency, incont and infection?
hypoestrogenemia -> atrophy of superficial and int. layers of vagina/mucosal epithelium; decreased urethral pressure and compliance -> sxs
37
define missed abortion
no vaginal bleeding, closed cervical os, no fetal HR or empty sac; asx
38
define threatened abortion
vaginal bleed, closed cervical os, fetal cardiac activity present
39
define inevitable abortion
vaginal bleed, dilated cervical os, poc may be seen or felt at/above cervical os
40
define incomplete abortion
vaginal bleed, dilated os, some pocs expelled, some remain
41
define complete abortion
vaginal bleed or non; closed cervical os; pocs completely expelled
42

``` oligohydramnios meconium aspiration stillbirth macrosomia convulsions ```
43
late/postterm preg complications for MOM
Csection infxn PPH perineal trauma
44
what does fetal heart tracing show with placenta previa?
usually unaffected. bleeding is maternal (even though it is painless)
45
what is pathognomonic for uterine rupture?
loss of fetal station; ability to feel fetal parts through abdominal wall
46
what does the fetal heart tracing look like with vasa previa?
rapid deterioration (bleeding is fetal)
47
define IUFD
fetal death at >= 20 wks
48
at what GA does IUFD need to be delivered vaginally?
24 or older
49

- migraine w aura - >= 15 cigs/day & age >=35 - stage 2 HTN (>=160/100) - hx stroke or ischemic heart dz - hx of venous thromboembolism - breast cancer - cirrhosis & liver cancer - major sx with prolonged immobilization - <3 wks postpartum
50
what is recommended for dx of lichen sclerosus?
punch bx; rule out SCC
51
how do you distinguish lichen sclerosus from vulvovaginal atrophy?

52
LS tx?
high dose topical steroids
