Fetal Anatomic Survey Case Study
Maria is a 24yo, G5 P3104, who is currently 22 weeks 2 days. She has a history of a preterm delivery but to my knowledge is not on 17-OHP. She had an anatomic survey performed here a few weeks and is here to complete the fetal anatomical survey.

On ultrasound, there is a live fetus in cephalic presentation. Fetal biometry is consistent with dates. A limited survey was unremarkable. There were no structural abnormalities noted within the capabilities of our ultrasound equipment. The spine and heart views appeared normal.

Maria’s scan was overall reassuring. We were able to complete the fetal anatomical survey. Therefore, I have not scheduled her to follow-up in our office but we would be happy to see her if you desire. Maria does

    Newborn Exam

    The government initiatives to reduce junior doctors’ hours within the NHS Plan (DH 2000) have increased the call for midwives to expand their traditional role and take on some of the tasks that in the past have mainly been carried out by junior doctors (Kings Fund 2011). Having been working within the community setting as a midwife for the past three years I was interested in extending my role in order to provide more holistic care for my caseload of clients and their babies. Holistic care for mothers, babies and their families is highly recommended within the midwifery profession and is known to provide an improved experience for women (Changing Childbirth (DOH 1993a) NMC 2012, NICE 2006). The Newborn and Infant Physical Examination (NIPE) is one element of the UK National Screening programme and is offered to all parents for their baby within 72 hours of birth and then repeated again at 6 weeks of age, usually by their GP. This role is one of the tasks that has been highlighted where midwives can expand their role (Marshall & Raynor 2010). The trust where I work has recently introduced community clinics where parents can take their baby in order to have the newborn examination performed, therefore allowing early discharge home from the unit enabling early family bonding. With this in mind I commenced the Newborn and Infant Physical Examination course.…

    Postpartum: Childbirth and Marie Wilson Marie

    Marie Wilson, a 34-year-old female client who is gravida 4, para 3, is transferred to the postpartum unit two hours after a prolonged 14-hour labor and forceps delivery of a male infant weighing 9 lb, 2 oz. The placenta was intact upon delivery. The labor and delivery nurse reports that Marie was catheterized for 600 ml of yellow urine just before delivery. Her record indicates that she had a repair of a 4th degree laceration. A postpartum assessment reveals that her vital signs are stable: blood pressure 120/80, pulse 84, respirations 20, temperature 98.9° F. Additional assessment indicates that her fundus is firm and located 1 cm above the umbilicus, and the perineal sutures are intact with edges well-approximated. The client describes herself as exhausted and without pain, since she has had no sensation below her waist since receiving epidural anesthesia.…

    Prenatal Recognition Case Study

    Kurtz et al (1980) described the first case of prenatal recognition of HPE by ultrasound. HPE has three major types based on decreasing severity: alobar, semilobar and lobar. The most serious expression of classic HPE occurs in alobar HPE. The earliest diagnoses of holoprosencephaly for alobar HPE, semilobar HPE, and lobar HPE were reported at 9.5, 13 and 21 weeks, respectively (12- 13). In this case study, we detected alobar holoprosencephaly in 32 weeks of gestation. Previous routine ultrasound mother (gestational age 12 weeks) had not reported any abnormality.…

    Examination of the Newborn

    The purpose of this assignment is to explore the issue surrounding screening and examination of the new born from birth. The article will look at why we perform this examination following birth and will pay particular attention to the examination of the eye. It is documented that the purpose of the first examination of the new born is to confirm normality and to provide reassurance to the parents (MacKeith, 1995, Hall, 1999) and also to identify any apparent physical abnormality (Buston and Durward 2001). However the question that we may wish to consider is ‘what is normal in a neonatal who is undergoing major physiological adaptations to extra uterine life (Blackburn and Loper, 1993) ? How as midwives can we fulfil this expectation of norm, when there is, as Hall (1999) suggests no confirmation of normality available ? Nevertheless a thorough search of the literature suggests that the neonatal examination is universally accepted as ‘good practice’, and any deviation from this practice could perhaps, potentiate negligence when subjected to the Bolam test (Sherratt, A, 2001). This test is often used as a benchmark to measure any negligence by, and examines if another professional of same standing would act in the same manner.…
