What diameter poses a problem for vaginal delivery?
B. Transverse diameter of inlet less than 12 cm.
What is the duration of the lesson wrap-up?
5 minutes.
How is the Obstetric Conjugate calculated?
By subtracting 1 to 1.5 cm from the Diagonal Conjugate.
Which landmark of the midpelvis is important for determining engagement?
Ischial spines.
What is the measurement between the anterior surface of the sacral prominence and the posterior surface of the symphysis pubis?
C. True conjugate.
What is the significance of the woman's psyche during labor?
It should be preserved so that labor can be viewed as a positive experience.
What is the True Conjugate measurement?
It is greater than 11 cm, measured from the midpoint of the sacral promontory to the upper margin of the symphysis pubis.
What are the three parts of the innominate hip bones?
Ilium, ischium, and pubis.
What visual aid is used to track progress?
A tracker to mark completed sessions.
What does the Tubero-Ischial Diameter measure?
The distance between the ischial tuberosities, representing the transverse diameter of the outlet.
Which pelvis type is round in shape and most common among females?
B. Gynecoid.
What is the LINEA TERMINALIS?
An imaginary line from the sacral promontory to the superior border of the pubic symphysis that divides the pelvis into true and false pelves.
What role does the pelvis play in labor?
It supports and protects reproductive organs, accommodates the growing fetus, and anchors pelvic support structures.
What are the 5 components of labor?
Pelvis, Fetus, Uterine factors, Psyche, Position.
What should students do during the face-to-face interaction?
Ask questions and debate among themselves.
What is the shape of the Platypelloid pelvis?
It has a smoothly-curved oval inlet but a shallow anteroposterior diameter.
What is the upper half of the pelvis that supports the uterus during late pregnancy?
False pelvis.
What condition occurs when the fetal head cannot fit into the maternal pelvis, necessitating a C-section?
Cephalopelvic disproportion (CPD).
What does the term 'Passageway' refer to in childbirth?
The route a fetus must travel from the uterus through the cervix and vagina to the external perineum.
What are the two main portions of the pelvis?
Anterior & lateral portion made up of innominate hip bones and posterior portion made up of sacrum and coccyx.
What is the anthropoid pelvic shape described as?
APE-LIKE.
What are the two important pelvic measurements for estimating pelvic size?
The Diagonal Conjugate and the Tubero-Ischial Diameter.
What factors affecting labor are associated with the passageway?
A. Size of the fetal head and its ability to mold to the maternal pelvis, B. The presentation of the fetus in relation to the maternal pelvis, C. The structure of the maternal pelvis.
What is the purpose of the rationalization activity?
To discuss and clarify answers among students.
What is a defining feature of the Android pelvis?
The pubic arch forms an acute angle, resulting in a narrow lower pelvis, which can make fetal exit difficult.
Which of the following is NOT a function of the pelvis?
Nourishment of the growing fetus.
What are the two divisions of the pelvis?
False pelvis and True pelvis.
What does the CAT 3-2-1 strategy evaluate?
What students learned after the discussion and activity.
What is the most reliable measurement of the outlet?
Bi-ischial diameter.
What is the function of the false pelvis?
Supports the uterus during late pregnancy and aids in directing the fetus into the true pelvis for birth.
What factors must be adequate for successful labor?
The woman's pelvis size and contour, fetus size and position, uterine factors, position comfort, and psyche.
What specific aspect of labor is discussed in Chapter 15?
The Passenger.
What does the term 'passageway' refer to in labor?
The route a fetus must travel from the uterus through the cervix and vagina to the external perineum.
What is the true pelvis divided into?
Inlet, pelvic cavity, and outlet.
What is the Diagonal Conjugate measurement range?
10.5 - 11 cm.
What is the characteristic of the Gynecoid pelvis?
It has a well-rounded inlet and a wide pubic arch, making it ideal for childbirth.
What is the adequate diameter for the Tubero-Ischial Diameter of the outlet?
11 cm.
