Exam
FHR can be heard by Doppler at: ANS: 10-12 weeks GA
Between 18 and 30 weeks the fundal height should measure what? ANS: It should equal the week of
gestation
MSAFP screening is done: ANS: 15-22 weeks of gestation
maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (MSAFP) screen. It's usually as part of a set of tests, which screen for
genetic problems, called the quad screen.
AFP is a substance made in the liver of an unborn baby (fetus).
Smoking tobacco during pregnancy is associated with : ANS: Low Birth Weight
Pregnant mothers should consume how much water each day? ANS: 2 to 3 Liters of water from food and
beverage sources.
Regarding kick counts, what are signs that a woman needs further evaluation? ANS: Fetal movements of
less than 3 in one hour
No fetal movement for 12 hours
The recommended weight gain during pregnancy is usually: ANS: 25-35lbs
3-4 lb in first trimester
1 lb per week in the last two trimesters
,Foods high in folic acid are: ANS: Leafy vegetables
Dried peas
Dried beans
Seeds
Orange juice
It is recommended that _____ mcg of folic acid be taken during pregnancy. ANS: 600
It is recommended that clients who are lactating consume ____ mcg of folic acid. ANS: 500
What vitamin aids in the absorption of Iron? ANS: Vitamin C
The clients bladder needs to be _____ before an ultrasound. ANS: Full
biophysical profile (BPP) normal score is ANS: A biophysical profile (BPP) test measures the health of
your baby (fetus) during pregnancy.
8-10
BPP abnormal score is ANS: <4
If a BPP comes back as 6..... ANS: It should be retested
BPP assess for ANS: Fetal well being
, non-stress test ( NST) ANS: most widely used technique for antepartum evaluation of fetal well being
performed during the third trimester.
Reactive NST ANS: FHR is a normal baseline rate with moderate variablity
Two accelerations to 15 bpm for at least 15 secs in 20 min period
A non reactive NST would indicate what about the fetus? ANS: The fetal heart rate does not accelerate
adequately with fetal movement.
-A BPP or CST will need to be done now
Positive CST is normal or abnormal ANS: abnormal
The contraction stress test — also called a stress test or an oxytocin challenge test — may be done
during pregnancy to measure the baby's heart rate during uterine contractions. Its purpose is to make
sure the baby can get the oxygen he needs from the placenta during labor.
Positive CST is indicated when: ANS: Persistent and consistent late decels on more than half of the
contractions.
An amniocentesis may be performed when? ANS: After 14 weeks gestation
AFP can be measured from the amniotic fluid between: ANS: 16 and 18 weeks
alpha-fetoprotein
Presence of PG on a fetal lung test is associated with: ANS: Respiratory distress
CVS can be done at ANS: 10-12 weeks
