Fimbriated end
within 12-24h ofovulation, occursat the ampulla
Receptivity of uterus• Apposition• Adhesion• Penetration
wWhen does human life begin?n When an oocyte is fertilized by sperm
wWhat’s pregnancy?n The state of having products of conception
implanted in the uterus or elsewheren Terminated by abortion or delivery
4
Terminology/Nomenclature
Terminology/Nomenclature
The duration of pregnancyw Fertilization age (FA): the age of the
offspring calculated from the time of fertilization w Gestational age(GA): It is calculated from
the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP, assuming a 28 day cycle) and expressed in completed age
5
Gestational age in weeks
6
Terminology/Nomenclature
w Embryo: 0-8 weeks FA (10w GA)w Fetus: 8-40 weeks FA
7
Terminology/Nomenclature
w Gravidity: the total number of pregnancies (normal and abnormal)
w Parity: the numbers of having given birth to an infant ≥ 20weeks GA or infants weighing >500g, alive or dead. (A multiple birth is a single parous experience)
w Live birth: the complete expulsion or extraction of a product of conception from the mother, which shows evidence of life
8
Terminology/Nomenclature
w Abortion: expulsion or extraction of all or any part of the placenta or membranes, without an identifiable fetus or with a fetus before 20W GA
w Infant: live-born individual from birth until the completion of 1 year of lifen Immature infant: weighs 500-1000g and has completed
20 weeks to less than 28 weeksn Premature infant: weighs 1000-2500g and has completed
28 weeks to less than 37 weeksn Mature infant: a live-born infant completed 37 weeks of
gestation and usually weighs >2500g9
Terminology/Nomenclature
w Preterm: before 37 weeks w Term: 37 to 42 weeksw Posterm: beyond 42 weeks
n Postmature infant: completed 42 weeks or more of gestation
10
Terminology/Nomenclature

life (I: 28W to first 7D of life, II: 20W to 27D of life)
11
Pregnancy Diagnosis
w It may be crucial to diagnose pregnancy before the first missed menstrual period n to prevent exposure of the fetus to hazardous
substancesn to manage ectopic or nonviable pregnanciesn or to provide better health care for the mother
12
Manifestations of pregnancy
w 3 groupsn presumptiven probablen positive
13
Presumptive Symptoms
w Amenorrheaw Nausea with or without vomitingw Breast changew Urinary tractw Quickening w Fatigue
14
Presumptive Symptoms
w Amenorrhea: strongly suggestive of pregnancy w Nausea and vomiting
n Morning sickness of pregnancyn Results from rapidly rising serum levels of
HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin)n Begin at 4 weeks and finish at 12 weeks
15
Presumptive Symptoms
w Breast changesn Tenderness and tinglingn Enlargement (second month )n Nodularity (sebaceous glands)n Colostrums secretion (begin after 16 w
gestation)n Secondary breasts (Axillary breast tissue often
cause a symptomatic lump in the axilla)
16
Secondary breast
Breast Enlargement
17
Presumptive Symptomsw Urinary tract
n Frequent urination and nocturia n Infection
w Quickening n 16-20weeks in primigravidas n 14-16 weeks in multigravidas
w Fatigue n one of the earliest symptoms of pregnancyn returns to normal by the 16th to 18th week
18
Presumptive signs
w Increased basal body temperature (>21 days)
19
Linea nigra and stretch marks
Stretch marks
nLinea nigra: darkening of the nipples and lower midline of abdomen
nStretch marks: separation of the underling collagen tissue and appear as irregular scars
Skin changes
20
Skin changes
w Chloasma:darkening of the skin over forehead, bridge of the nose and cheekbones
w Spider telangiectases
AFTER BEFORE
21
Probable Symptoms
w Same as presumptive symptoms
22
Probable Signs
w Pelvic organsn Leukorrhea: vaginal discharge increasedn Chadwick’s sign: vaginal mucosa and cervix become
bluish (6-8w)n Hegar’s sign: softening between cervix and uterine
fundus causes a sensation of separateness between these two structures(6-10w)
n Goodell’s sign: cyanosis and softening of cervix(4w)n Ladin sign: softening of the uterus after 6 wn Bones and ligaments of pelvis (relaxation)
23
Probable Signs
w Abdominal enlargement(the uterus rises out of the
pelvis and into the abdomen)
w Uterine contractions (Braxton hicks contractions)
24
wBallottement (16-20w)wUterine souffle
It may be more easily accomplished by a vaginal examination
25
Pregnancy test
HCG is produced by trophoblast 8 days after fertilization w Urine pregnancy test
n Positive around the first missed cyclew Serum pregnancy test: more sensitive
n HCG may be detected in maternal serum at 9 days
26
HCG changes during pregnancy
w A viable pregnancy can be confirmed by US at a HCG of 1500-2000IU/L(5w)w Fetal heart at 5000-6000IU/L(6w)w Rise to a peak of 100,000 IU/L at 10-12
weeks w Decrease throughout the second trimesterw Level off at 20000-30000IU/L in the third
trimester27
• Ultrasound examination of fetus is one of the most useful technical way

24h after rupture or if there is any evidence of infection
w Laborn Contractions occur at decreasing intervals with
increasing intensity cause the progressive dilation and effacement of the cervix

PART III
Methods of assessment for pregnancy at risk
63
Terminology
w High-risk pregnancy One in which the mother, fetus or newborn is
at or may be at increased risk of morbidity or mortality before, during or after delivery. The likelihood of an adverse outcome is greater than in the general pregnancy population
64
Terminology
wMaternal deathn Death occurs either during pregnancy or
within 42 days of the termination of pregnancyw Perinatal mortality
n The combination of fetal deaths and neonatal deaths per 1000 live birth
65
Methods of assessment for pregnancy at risk
w Preconceptional evaluation and counselingwMaternal assessment for potential fetal
or perinatal risk w Fetal assessment
66
Maternal assessment
w Initial screening (complete history and PE)w Antepartum course (Uniform perinatal record )w Screening test
n First and second trimester evaluation of risk for aneuploidy
n Blood screening testn Isoimmunization: RH or ABO incompatibility
67
Fetal assessment
w Assessment of prenatal diagnosis n Ultrasound (fetal number, presentation, viability,
placental location, gestational age and fetal anatomy, multiple sonographic markers for aneuploidy screening) (18-20w)
n Amniocentesis (15-20w)n Chorionic villus sampling(9-12w)n Fetal blood sampling (higher risk)
68
Assessment of fetal well-being
w Test of fetal heart rate n External fetal monitoringn Internal fetal monitoring
w Sonographic fetal monitoring(Biophysical profile and Doppler velocimetry)
w Lung marturiy
69
70
71
Fetal heart rate tracing
wBaseline Raten Normal: 110~160 bpmn � Affected by following factors:
Gestational age Fetal status Maternal fever \ position \ drugs
72
Periodic changes of FHR
w�Accelerationsw�Decelerations
Early Late Variable
w�Sinusoidal patterns
73
74
75
76
77
78
Nonstress test (NST)
w Beginning at 32-34week of gestationw The criteria of reassuring(reactive) NST
n Baseline between 110-160bpm n Periodic acceleration of fetal heart rate of 15
bpm over baseline for 15 seconds (2 in 20min, reactive/reassuring)
79
Biophysical profile (BPP)
w High risk pregnancy in third trimester or nonreactive NSTn NSTn Fetal breathing movementsn Fetal movementn Fetal tonen Determination of the amniotic fluid volume
A BPP of 8-10 or better is reassuring80
Oxytocin challenge test (OCT)
w Contraction stress test(CST)w 3 contractions occur in 10 min by intravenous
infusion of oxytocin or during laborw Further test for nonreassuring NST/BPP or in
more severe cases
81
Fetal maturity tests
w Lung maturity is essential for normal respiration immediately after birthw Indications for assessing fetal lung maturity
n Before elective delivery at less than 39 week’s gestation unless fetal maturity can be inferred from any of these criterial Fetal heart tones documented for 30 weeks by Doppler or
for 20w by nonelectronic fetoscopel 36 weeks since a positive pregnancy test
82

86
PART IV
Prenatal Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment
87
Introduction
w A relatively new field within obstetricsn Related to the advent and advancement of
realtime USn Screening: select high-risk individuals for a
given diagnosis or complicationn Diagnosis: diagnostic and usually far more
specific than screening, but bear a greater risk of complications (Amniocentesis and CVS)
88
Screening for genetic diseases
w The diseases are passed genetically from parents to their offspingn Autosomal dominant or recessive diseasen X-linked disorder
w The first step in determining fetal risk is to screen the mother for the diseasewWhich is usually done in high risk groups
89
Common genetic diseases
w Autosomal dominant or recessive diseasen Cystic fibrosis 囊性纤维变性 (AR)n Sickle-cell disease 镰状细胞(贫血)病(AR)n Tay-Sachs disease (AR)n Thalassemia [θælə'si:miə]地中海贫血
w X-linked disordersn Hemophilia 血友病
90
Chromosomal abnormalities
w Aneuploidy (extra or missing chromosomes)n Generally the cause of some syndromesn Obvious phenotypic differences and congenital
anomalies, not always be detected by prenatal USw Fetal karyotype is the only way to achieve a
definitive diagnosis of aneuploidyw Screening test are exist for some syndromes
91
Chromosomal abnormalities
wTrisomy usually results in early abortionwAn infant is occasionally born with trisomy
and surviven Down syndrome(Trisomy 21)n Trisomy 18n Trisomy 13
92
Sex chromosomal abnormalities
wMost common sex chromosome aneuploidesn 45XO: turner syndrome, monosomy Xn 47XXY: klinefelter syndrome
w The most common aneuploidies are those of sex chromosomes. They are less severely affected than the autosomal aneuploidiesw No screening test for these two syndormesw Diagnosed by prenatal diagnose
93
Fetal congenital anomalies
w Primarily arise during embryogenesis, but also can progress as development continuesw Occur in any organ system
n Neural tube Defects: spina bifida and anencephalyAssociated with folate deficiency and can be screenedn Cardiac Defectsn Potter Syndrome (肾衰竭、羊水过少)
94
Prenatal screening
w First trimester (11w-13w6d)n US: Nuchal translucency (NT) n Serum screen: HCG+PAPP-A
w Second trimester (15-20w)n Triple screen: MSAFP, estriol andβ-hCG
n Quad screen: MSAFP, estriol, β-hCG and inhibinA
n Realtime US
95
Prenatal diagnosis
w Indications n Known carriers of a genetic disordern At high risk of aneuploidy based on age/historyn Positive screening test
w Involves obtaining fetal cells to perform a karyotype and possibly DNA test
96
Prenatal diagnosis
w Amniocentesisn Be performed
beyond 15 weeks n Risk (1/200): rupture
of membranes, preterm labor and rarely fetal injury
97
wChorionic villus sampling (9-12w)n Risk is higher:
preterm labor, premature rupture of membrane, previable labor, fetal injury
98
Prenatal diagnosis
Prenatal diagnosis
w Fetal blood samplingn Performed by
placing a needle transabdominally into the uterus and phlebotomizing the cord
99
Prenatal diagnosis
anencephaly
wFetal imagingnUltrasound: most commonly
nFetal echocardiogram: cardiac anomaly
nMRI
n3D US: The image more like the actual fetus

Question 1
A 27 years old woman, gravida 1, para 1, presents for her first prenatal visit after testing positive on a home pregnancy test. She reports regular cycles every 35 days. She denies use of birth control pills or other contraceptive in the last 7 months. The first day of her last menstrual period was April 1, 2009, the last day was April 5, 2009. She says her periods always last 4-5 days. What is the best estimate of her due date?
102
Question 2
A pregnant woman presents to your office for prenatal care. She has had two abortions, two second trimester miscarriages(15 and 13w), a fetal demise at 37 week s’ gestation, and two live births. Her son, who is now 13 years old, was delivered at 34 weeks’ gestation by spontaneous vaginal delivery. Her daughter , who is now 10 years old, was delivered at 38 weeks by cesarean section secondary to fetal distress during labor. What are her “Gs and Ps” by simple notation and by TPAL notation?
