Question 1

The following are eitiological factors of atonic postpartum hge except :

Accepted Answer

Cervical lacerations are not an etiological factor of atonic postpartum hemorrhage (PPH). Atonic PPH is primarily caused by the inability of the uterus to contract effectively after delivery, not by structural injuries such as lacerations.

Accepted Answer

A transverse lie refers to a fetal position where the baby is lying horizontally across the uterus, which matches the description given.

Question 3

Means the head is at the level of the ischial spines

Accepted Answer

Station 0 means the head is at the level of the ischial spines, which is considered the reference point for measuring fetal descent during labor.

Question 4

Engagement is said to occur when.......

Accepted Answer

Engagement occurs when the biparietal diameter of the fetal head passes through the pelvic inlet, indicating that the widest part of the fetal head has entered the pelvis.

Question 5

The following hormone is not produced by the placenta...

Accepted Answer

Prolactin is primarily produced by the anterior pituitary gland, not the placenta, although its levels increase during pregnancy under the influence of estrogen and other factors.

Question 6

Which is the most common cause of abnormal lie?

Accepted Answer

The answer of Which is the most common cause of...

Question 7

Which of the following statements regarding vaginal breech birth is FALSE?

Accepted Answer

Epidural analgesia is not mandatory for vaginal breech births, although it may be recommended or preferred in some cases to manage pain and facilitate potential interventions. The decision to use epidural analgesia should be based on individual circumstances and patient preference.

Question 8

Engagement is said to occur when.......

Accepted Answer

Engagement occurs when the biparietal diameter of the fetal head passes through the pelvic inlet, indicating that the widest part of the fetal head has entered the pelvic brim.

Question 9

After what age gestation would abnormal lie warrant hospital admission

Accepted Answer

After 37 weeks of gestation, an abnormal lie warrants hospital admission to monitor the baby's position and plan for delivery, as it increases the risk of complications.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

The most common type of breech presentation is the extended breech, also known as frank breech, where the baby's buttocks are aimed toward the birth canal with legs extended straight up in front of the body and feet near the head.

Question 11

At which part of the pelvis are the transverse and anterior-posterior diameter most similar?

Accepted Answer

The mid-cavity of the pelvis has transverse and anterior-posterior diameters that are most similar in size.

Question 12

Accepted Answer

Breech presentations occur in approximately 3% of term pregnancies.

Question 13

Accepted Answer

Question 14

Question 15

Leopold maneuvers refers to :

Accepted Answer

Leopold maneuvers are a series of four specific steps performed by a healthcare provider to examine the abdomen of a pregnant woman in order to assess the position, presentation, and engagement of the fetus.

Question 16

Following changes occur in urinary system during normal pregnancy:

Accepted Answer

During normal pregnancy, there are physiological changes in the urinary system, including an increase in renal blood flow, an increase in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and an increase in the capacity of the kidney pelvis and ureters. These changes help the body accommodate the increased metabolic demands and waste elimination for both the mother and the developing fetus.

Question 17

Mechanism of labor in abortion stick ( use of stick to induce abortion)is due to

Accepted Answer

The use of a stick to induce abortion primarily causes necrosis of the uterine endometrium and stimulates uterine contractions, leading to the expulsion of the fetus. This method does not rely on oxytocin or prostaglandins present in the stick, but rather on the physical and possibly infectious consequences of inserting a foreign object into the uterus.
