Housestaff Resident Obstetrical Clinic Case Summary

A screening should take place which allows professionals to determine if further evaluation is warranted.

Pelvic/ Rectal: deferred as patient has recently visited her GYN for a routine Pap smear. Neurologic exam reveals normal motor strength in all muscle

It is our pleasure to see and provide FTS for Ms. Jennifer Mullins. She is a 19yo, G1 P0, with EDD by an 8-week 1-day ultrasound performed in your office giving an EDD of 12/25/17. Her past medical history is notable for morbid obesity with a prepregnancy BMI of 45. She takes prenatal vitamins, denies any surgical history, is normotensive with a normal urine dip here. This is her 1st pregnancy. Her social history is negative x3. Her family history is notable for breast cancer, HTN, diabetes in her maternal grandmother, and heart disease in her as well. She has having occasional nausea, vomiting, and heartburn and says that the Diclegis is not working at all and would like a different prescription.

Erin is a 33yo, G3 P1101, who was seen for an ultrasound evaluation and consultation. The patient has a longstanding past history of substance abuse as well as alcohol abuse and she is HIV positive with a positive viral load. She is followed by infectious disease and is on numerous medications including Genvoya and Prezista. She also is reportedly hepatitis C positive. She has a history of alcohol abuse in the past but states that she has not had any alcohol since early June. Her LMP was 08/06/17. She also has a history of cocaine usage but again denies any usage in the past year. She does have a longstanding history of physical abuse and has had issues with anxiety. She has 2 previous deliveries. The 1st of which was in 2004 that occurred

Client reported that she does not have a current primary care physician at the time of assessment. Client reported that she is not currently pregnant and does not taking medication for medical purpose. Client denied any issues in this dimension. Indicated no current condition or medications that would interfere with treatment. Client exhibited adequate ability to tolerate and cope with physical discomfort. No immediate biomedical services are needed at the time of assessment.

Brittany is a 22yo, G2 P1001, who was seen for an ultrasound evaluation and FTS. The patient states that she has a history of hypothyroidism but believes that she was tested in this pregnancy and told that her values were normal. I do not have copies of that lab work but would recommend that this be followed as her pregnancy progresses. She also reportedly has some issues with anxiety and IBS but is stable not on medication. She has a previous cesarean delivery with her last delivery but is uncertain about a VBAC. Lastly, she states that her main issue in this pregnancy is that when she wakes up in the morning after sleeping her arms and hands are numb or asleep and this did not occur in her previous pregnancy.

Keia is a 31yo, G2 P0100, who is currently 9 weeks 6 days as dated by a 6-week scan that was off from her LMP. She has a history of an IUFD at 29 weeks. She reports that she had decreased fetal movement prior to coming in and there being no fetal heart tones on examination, but other than that there were no other significant precipitating events. She did have an increased risk for Down syndrome at 1:140 but per the old reports all of her analytes were within normal limits. At the time of delivery, the baby did appear to be appropriate weight and there were no obvious causes at the time of delivery. She reports that she had chromosomes performed after and the chromosomes were negative. She also thinks she had a full autopsy that was unremarkable. She did have a work-up for clotting disorders due to the history of loss and according to the chart everything is relatively within normal limits except for MTHFR which was heterozygous for C677T and A1298C. I did not see beta-2 glycoprotein or antithrombin III. Because of the relatively normal work-up she is on a baby aspirin and Metanx. She is here today to discuss her history and plans for this pregnancy.

Views today demonstrate a viable singleton fetus at 31 weeks 0 days in vertex presentation with an anterior placenta. Fetal biometry appears symmetric and corresponds with stated EDD falling at the 56%ile. Interval growth is noted; however, the growth percentage did trend down from the 80%ile to the 56%ile. Follow-up fetal anatomy visualized as normal or was previously documented as normal. Ductal velocity today measured at 69.2 cm/se, which falls within normal limits. AFI remains reassuring at 12.6 cm. BPP 8/8. Doppler studies are normal in value and wave form.

Serrita is a 26yo, G3 P1011, who was seen for an ultrasound evaluation and fetal anatomy assessment. As you know, she has chronic HTN and is on methyldopa 500 mg b.i.d. Her BP is normal on today’s assessment at 130/78. Her urine evaluation was negative. She is also hypothyroid status-post a diagnosis of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. She is on replacement therapy. She did undergo noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT) that returned low-risk, female and her maternal serum AFP was normal at 0.58 MoM. Based on her height and weight at the start of the pregnancy, her BMI was about 38. Lastly, she is on metformin 500 mg b.i.d. She states that she believes that she was on this due to abnormal insulin levels but she was not completely certain as to why

Per medical records (2008-2014), the claimant had a history of multiple medical issues, including migraines, right hand tremors, alcohol abuse, obesity, gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD), nausea, abdominal pain, endometriosis and degenerative changes in the left knee. In 2014, she was evaluated for hip

On today’s evaluation, she is 19 weeks and the fetal measurements overall are concordant. The long bone measurements are within one week of her dates. The amniotic fluid volume is normal, and the cervix is long and closed. A complete fetal anatomical survey was performed and a significant amount of ventriculomegaly/hydrocephalous was identified but no other major malformations were noted at this time, though due to the

By dates, the patient is 35 5/7 weeks and the measurements are concordant. The amniotic fluid volume is normal. The fetus is in cephalic presentation. The BPP and Doppler studies are reassuring. A complete fetal anatomical survey was performed and no major malformations were noted at this time within the resolution of the ultrasound equipment other than the fetal abdomen. There is a cystic structure seen in the fetal abdomen that is about 3 cm in diameter with some echolucency surrounding this. It is below the kidney but above the fetal bladder as identified in your office.

Thank you for the opportunity to participate in the care of Ms. Megan Robertson, who as you know is a 20yo female, G2 P0101, currently at 16 weeks 5 days EGA with a pregnancy complicated by a history of prior spontaneous preterm delivery at 35 weeks of gestation and maternal underweight status. She presents today for evaluation of cervical length and fetal growth due to her history of prior preterm delivery and started her course of 17-alpha hydroxyprogesterone caproate injections today and these are weekly injections for her to reduce the risk of preterm birth secondary to her history of prior spontaneous birth.

On ultrasound, there is a live fetus in breech presentation. Fetal biometry is symmetric and consistent with dates. A detailed anatomic survey was overall unremarkable but we were unable to adequately obtain fetal cardiac views in order to complete the echocardiogram. Both myself and the sonographer scanned and unfortunately the fetus remained in the spine up position after an extended amount of
