Amniocentesis
An HIV + mother gives birth she would be advised that:
don't breastfeed = possible transmission
What tests should a patient expect to have performed at each prenatal visit

Helen is a 34-year-old pregnant lady who is currently 19 weeks pregnant. She reports she gave birth to 3 previous children who were all delivered vaginally. She also reports a previous miscarriage and another pregnancy that was terminated.
Gravida (total pregnancies)- 6
Para (total births) - 3
What does GTPAL Mean?
G- total # of pregnancies
T- Total births/Full Term (37wks+)
P- Preterm births (20-36wks)
A- Abortions/Miscarriages (under 20wks)
L- Living Children (total # of living children)
Identify the test:
Mom senses a no movement in baby. Non-invasive.
Non-Stress Test
Fetal HR to fetal movement
Detail Reactive Results & Non-Reactive Results from Non-Stress Test. Are there risks with this test?
Reactive:
FHR accelerates 15bpm, Occurs 2+ times in 20 min = fetus oxygenated / life is good
Non-Reactive:
FHR doesn't accelerate w/ fetal movements or no fetal movement (MORE TESTS TO BE DONE - BPP)
No risk, non-invasive
Normal Fetal Heart Rate
110-160
