2 indications for Magnesium administration
2 maternal causes of fetal tachycardia
What is maternal fever, infection, dehydration, anxiety, metabolic conditions, and/or medications?
indication for administration of BP Protocol
What is sustained hypertension (>160/110 x2, 15 min apart)
The threshold of blood loss to be considered a PPH for vaginal and CS deliveries?
What is >500 for vaginal and >1000 CS?
2 SIRS criteria
What is:
Temp >38.0C or <36.0C
HR >90
RR >20
WBC >12,000 or <4,000
nursing responsibilities during bolus administration
contraindication for administration of IV labetalol
What is HR<60?
tools available during a PPH
What is the hemorrhage cart, QBL calculator, and PRN orders/oxytocin bolus,
What is >2?
This is the antidote for magnesium toxicity
What is calcium gluconate?
This is the minimum amount of time required to observe a FHR in order to determine a baseline
What is two minutes within a ten minute window?
Possible side effect of IV hydralazine administration

Nursing interventions for a patient who has an infection + 2 SIRS criteria
What are draw STAT "sepsis lactate" and obtain Q15min vitals until lactate results?
Magnesium is excreted primarily by this organ
What are the kidneys?
The primary difference between a prolonged decel and a variable decel
What are duration and shape? Variable: sharp, brief, fluctuating "V" or "U" shaped drop. <2 mins, usually caused by cord compression. Prolonged: sustained drop, 2-10 minutes, sudden profound shift in fetal oxygenation
T or F: You must call a provider if you have a sustained sever range blood pressure
What is false? You should begin the protocol and call the provider to update AFTER you've initiated the protocol.
T or F: You can administer on oxytocin bolus without calling a provider
Nursing interventions for a lactate > 2
What are notify provider immediately, obtain broad-spectrum antibiotics orders, draw blood cx before antibx administration, and repeat lactate in 2 hours?
(If sepsis lactate is greater than or equal to 4 or SBP <90 or MAP <65 follow above guidelines and obtain order for sepsis IV fluid bolus (30mL/kg) over 1 hour)
Call RRT if not responsive to IV fluid bolus or other concerns noted.
The 4 signs and symptoms of magnesium toxicity
What is loss of DTRs, RR<12, altered consciousness, and/or a serum magnesium level >8.4mg/dL

What is 20 mg?
The "4 T's" to quickly identify to causes of PPH
What are Tone, Trauma, Tissue, Thrombin?
Criteria for transfer to ICU
What is the patient is unresponsive to IV fluid bolus (2 episodes of hypotension within one hour of the bolus)?
Now they need vasopressor administration and implementation of the 6-hour septic shock bundle
