METHODICAL INSTRUCTION FOR STUDENTS OF THE 4 COURSE

FOREIGN STUDENT FACULTY

LESSON № 4 (practical  -  6 hours)

 

THEME 1. Pregnancy and births contracted pelvis  

THEME 2. Macrosomia in obstetrics, pregnancy and delivery. Multifetal gestation. Pregnancy in polyhydramnios, oligihydramnios 

 

Aim: be able to diagnose anatomically contracted pelvis, to make a plan of labor management in different types of contracted pelvis. to learn the peculiarities of pregnancy duration in polyhydramnios, multifetal pregnancy, to diagnose the main complications in labor in macrosomic fetus, multifetal gestation, and in polyhydramnios.

 

Professional orientation of students:

Learning the main types and peculiarities of labor in contracted pelvis gives a possibility to prevent the main obstetric complications, perinatal and maternal death. In fact, pregnancies with multiple fetuses pose significant medical risks for both the mother and her offspring. Special care is necessary to achieve an optimal outcome. In general, all potential complications with twin pregnancies are somewhat more frequent and more serious as the number of fetuses increases. 

 

1.     Methodology of Practical Class - from 09.00 till 12.00.

Algorithm of students’ communication with patients with pathology in subject (communication skills) (for clinical department):

Algorithm of practical work:

Theme: 1. Pregnancy and births contracted pelvis  

Work 1. In the pathology of pregnancy department the students measure the external pelvic sizes, plan the root of delivery in different degrees of pelvis contraction.

Students work with the pelvis and doll learning the biomechanism of delivery in case of contracted pelvis

 Theme: 2.  Macrosomia in obstetrics, pregnancy and delivery. Multifetal gestation. Pregnancy in polyhydramnios, oligihydramnios 

Work 1. In ultrasound cabinet the students take part in examination of pregnant in late terms of pregnancy, recognize the macrosomia, maltifetal gestation, polygydroamnion.

Work 2. In the class-room the students work with the video and slides about  maltifetal delivery, delivery in case of macrosomia.

 Work 3. In the department of pregnancy pathology students take the patient’s history, perform the external obstetrical examination of pregnant women – Leopold’ maneuvers, measuring pelvic sizes, fetal heart biting auscultation, plan the method of delivery in case of maltifetal pregnancy, macrosomia.

B – Shortening of  anteroposterior diameters of the pelvic inlet;

C – Shortening of  anteroposterior diameters of the pelvic outlet;

D – Diminution of all true pelvic diameters (anteroposterior, transverse, and oblique);

E –  Diminution of all transverse pelvic  diameters.

3. An indications for cesarean section in contracted pelvis are:

A – First degree of pelvic contraction;

B – Clinically contracted pelvis;

C – Third degree of pelvic contraction;

D – Obliquely contracted pelvis;

E – Spondylolisthetic pelvis.

4. A 24-year-old woman in labor has pushing efforts during 1 hour. Pelvic sizes: 26,  28, 30, 20 cm. Fetal head is fixated to the pelvic inlet (- 2 station). Probable featal weight is 4900 grams. fetal heart rate is 130 beats per minute. Positive Vasten’s sign. Vaginal examination reveals full dilation of the cervix, absence of the amniotic sac, and edema of the fetal scalp (caput succedaneum). Sagittal  suture located in transverse position of the pelvic inlet. What would be the most probable diagnosis? What should be and adequate management?  

 

5.     Student's individual work from 14.15 till 15.00.

Students, who have not passed control in «MOODLE» system, should stay for individual work and write test control. Students work with thematic training tables, train in computer class, work with license examination test "KROK" and the department database tests, in-depth study of topics according to an individual study program, etc.
