44  Preterm Labor (PTL) is defined as regular contractions associated with cervical changes after 20 weeks’ gestation and prior to 37 completed weeks of gestation.  It is the second, only to birth defects, as the leading cause of neonatal mortality.  It occurs in up to 12 % of all pregnancies and is the most frustrating clinical dilemmas in obstetrics.

45 1. Premature activation of the maternal or fetal HPA axis 2. Decidual and amniochorionic inflammation 3. Decidual hemorrhage 4. Pathologic uterine distention

59 Other Tocolytic Drugs which are not used due to Maternal/Fetal adverse Effect MedicationMaternal/Fetal Side-effects Terbutaline /Bricanyl B2 Adrenergic Receptor Agonist PULMONARY EDEMA is a well-documented complication, usually associated with aggressive intravenous hydration. Indomethacin Prostaglandin Inhibitor Decrease fetal urine output resulting in Oligohydramnios & Premature close of fetal ductus arteriosus which result to fetal pulmonary Hypertension. Atosiban Oxytocin Inhibitor Nausea was significantly increased after injection administration.

60 Antibiotic Therapy AntibioticDose AmpicillinLoading: 2gram IV Maintenance: 1 gram IV Q6 for 48hours Erythromycin250mg Q6 until 10 days

61 General Contraindications to Tocolytic Therapy 1. Category III FHR Patterns 2. Intra-amniotic infection 3. Eclampsia or severe preeclampsia 4. Fetal demise 5. Fetal maturity 6. Maternal hemodynamic instability 7. Severe bleeding of any cause 8. Fetal anomaly incompatible with life 9. Severe IUGR 10. Cervix dilated more than 5cm

62 Acceleration of Fetal Maturity AgentMechanism Of Action DoseSide-effectsNursing Implications DexamethasoneCorticosteroid To hasten fetal lung maturity 12mg IM Q12 x 2 doses irritation at the injection site, tachycardia  Explain the purpose of the drug  Monitor v/s and fetal heart rate Postponing delivery for administration is an option because it takes about 24 hours for the Dexamethasone to have an effect. The effect last approximately 7 days.

63 Acceleration of Fetal Maturity

64 Complications Prematurity and associated neonatal complications, such as lung immaturity:  Intraventricular Hemorrhage (IVH)  Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS)  Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)  Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC)

65 Complications of Preterm Labor Premature Labor can’t be halt will lead to Preterm Delivery

66 PRIORITIZATION OF NURSING PROBLEMS 1. Risk for injury maternal/fetal related to preterm labor and tocolytic therapy. 3. Activity intolerance related to prescribed bed rest or decreased activity secondary to threat to preterm labor 2. Deficient Knowledge: Preterm labor Prevention related to unfamiliarity with Preterm Labor signs/symptoms and prevention)

67 PRIORITIZATION OF NURSING PROBLEMS 4. Deficient Diversional activity related to inability to engage in usual activities secondary to attempts to avoid PTL & PTB 6. Anticipatory grieving related to preterm labor and birth 5. Anxiety related to medication and fear of outcome of pregnancy

68 PRIORITIZATION OF NURSING PROBLEMS 7. Risk for Complications secondary to tocolytic therapy 8. Compromised Family Coping secondary to hospitalization

70 ASSESSMENT NURSING DIAGNOSIS GOALS & DESIRED OUTCOME NURSING INTERVENTION RATIONALEEVALUATION SUBJECTIVE: “ I feel a sudden contraction” as verbalized by the patient OBJECTIVE: 1.Continued uterine contraction 2.Facial mask of pain 3.Irritability V/S taken as follows: BP: 120/70mmHg PR: 80 bpm RR: 20 cpm Temp.: 36.9◦C FHT: 152bpm Cervix: 1cm dilated, 50% Effacement, Station: -3 Cephalic Position Risk for Injury maternal /fetal related to preterm labor and tocolytic therapy. Within 12 hours of nursing intervention, patient’s contraction halt after treatment with tocolytic and fetal heart rate remains within acceptable parameters. 1. Positioned patient on left side as much as tolerated. Change to right side if client becomes uncomfortable – avoid supine position. 2. Explain all procedures and equipment to patient and significant other. 3. Attached external fetal heart rate monitors for continuous evaluation of contractions and fetal response. Position facilitates uteroplacental perfusion. Client and significant other may be experiencing high anxiety and need repeated explanation. Uterine and fetal monitoring provides evidence of fetal well- being. After 12 hours of nursing intervention, the goal was fully met as evidenced by: Cessation of uterine contraction after treatment with tocolytic. Fetal heart rate remains within acceptable parameters.

71 ASSESSMENT NURSING DIAGNOSIS GOALS & DESIRED OUTCOME NURSING INTERVENTIONRATIONALE EVALUATION 4. Made contact with ultrasound personnel as per doctors order. 5.Extracted blood for laboratory studies such as CBC. Obtained clean-catch urine for culture, vaginal and cervical culture. 6. Inserted IV line and begin IV fluid therapy as doctors’ order. 7.Administered betamethasone as prescribed. An ultrasound can document fetal health and cervical dilation. Assessment provides a baseline for future comparison. IV fluid improves hydration, which may help to minimize contractions. This synthetic cortisol can accelerate fetal lung maturity by stimulating surfactant production.

72 ASSESSMENT NURSING DIAGNOSIS GOALS & DESIRED OUTCOME NURSING INTERVENTIONRATIONALE EVALUATION 8. Administer antibiotics, as indicated. 9. Initiate tocolytic therapy, as ordered. 10. Checked patient’s vital signs closely, every 15 minutes. Assessed for chest pain and dyspnea. 11. Checked fetal heart rates and pattern. In the event of PROM, antibiotics may be used to prevent/reduce risk of infection. Helps reduce myometrial activity to prevent/delay early delivery. Maternal pulse over 120 beats per minute or persistent tachycardia or tachypnea, chest pain, dyspnea, or adventitious breath sounds may include impending pulmonary edema. Fetal tachycardia or late or variable decelerations indicate possible uterine bleeding or fetal distress, which requires emergency birth.

73  Educate the patient about the importance of continuing the pregnancy until the term or fetal lung maturity.  Encourage the need for compliance with a decrease activity level or best rest, as indicated.  Teach the patient the importance of proper nutrition and the need for adequate hydration.  Instruct the patient not to engage in sexual activity if diagnosed with PTL.

74  Teach the patient the signs and symptoms of infection and to report them immediately.  When preterm labor occur:  Lie down on left side for 1 hour  Drink 2-3 glasses of water or juice  Palpate for contractions  If no contractions, assume light activity, if symptoms comes back, need to notify health care professionals  Empty bladder to relieve pressure on the uterus

75  Presented a case of a 40 y/o G2P1 Pregnancy Uterine 31 3/7 weeks with 10-15 pus cells & Candida present on Cervico vaginal swab are considered maternal infection that plays a potential etiologic role in preterm labor therefore an administration of antibiotic therapy will be given to prevent perinatal transmission.  On conservative management such as antenatal screening and close fetal antenatal surveillance (biophysical profile with Doppler velocimetry every 3 days)

76  High Risk Pregnancy with Preexisting Illness like Diabetes and Heart Disease needs a special care provided by the Internist, Cardiologist, Anesthesiologist, OB/Gyne & Sonologist & Neonatologist.  On tocolytic therapy such as Nifedipine, administration of Corticosteroid Dexamethasone for acceleration of lung maturity and provision of neonatal care.  Rendered close observation including fetal status and labor progress.

77  Nurses’ role in providing education to the patient about the importance of continuing the pregnancy until term or fetal lung maturity.  However, on Day 04 CTG shows early deceleration and labor progresses. Patient underwent REPEAT LSCS due to FETAL DISTRESS (persistent fetal bradycardia) to a stillborn infant with MULTIPLE CONGENITAL DEFECTS, AMBIGOUS GENETALIA.
