Sites where you will look for the cause of PP.
1- Throat
2- Breast

Tip 2. INDICATIONS OF OUTLET FORCEPS
Always keep this tip with you & read it daily..
1-Prolonged 2nd stage of labor
2- Maternal exhaustion
3- mother not able to push
4- When pushing is not required
5- Fetal distress .
6- High head at doing C section
7- After coming head of breech.
Obstructed labor is not an indication rather it is a contraindication.
PRE REQUISITES for APLICATION OF OUTLET FORCEPS (MNEMONIC: FORCEPS)
F - FULLY DILATED CERVIX.
O - Outlet adequate no CPD.
R - Ruptured membranes .
C - Contractions present.
E - Engagement of head and episiotomy.
P - Presentation: Cephalic. Position: occipito anterior

Tip 16. PPH .
Bleeding from the genital tract after the delivery of the baby(>500 ml at V delivery or >1000 ml after c\section )till 42 days. one of the leading cause of maternal mortality.
primary PPH is bleeding occurs within first 24 hrs
 secondary PPH if after 24 hr till 42 days
major cause of p PPH is atony of the uterus (remember 4 Ts, aTony. Trama. Trombin.Tissue) and
secondary PPH is ENDOMETRitus due to RPOCS.
RX of PPH
1 Resuscitation
2double iv line
3blood for grouping crossmatching & coagelation profile
4fluid colloid or crystalline
5foleys catheter
6RX of cause BOTh would b done simultaneously. 
Stepwise Management of atony..
1.massage the fundus
2.iv syntocinon
3 syntocinon infusion

8.uteine packing
9. Temponade
10. B lynch 
11. Uterine arteries ligation
12. Ant devision of int artery ligation
13.hysterctomy last resort.....
truma needs repair...
 DIC treated by FFPs.
thromboctopenia by platelates or fresh blood,




Tip .3A+B=C (Breech Delivery)
Dont be afraid this is not a mathematical Q
Any obstetrical complication(A) associated with BREECH(B) mode of delivery is C/s(c).
COMPLICATIONS
1.Hypertension
2. Diabeties mellitus
3. Previous one c/s
4.p previa any type
5. IUGR
6.Rh incompatability
7.twins with ist fetus breech
8. Footling breech
9.wt of the fetus >3.75kg <2.5 kg
10. Poly or oligohydramnios
11.exteded attitute of fetal head. elective C/S for breech should be performed at 38weeks.
FEW MANOUVERS IN BRREECH DELIVERY.
PINARD MANOUVER for exteded legsLOVSET MANOUVER for exteded arms.
MARACEUIA SMELI VIET MANOUVER.
BURN'S MARSHAL TECNHNIQ&
PIPERS FORCEPS For aftercoming head.
Maternal complications of breech delivery
1.Increased ç/s
2tears
3.infections.
fetal.
1fracture of femur and dislocation of hip joint
2. Injury soft tissuesLIVER
3humers fracture
4clavicle fracture
5sublaxation of atlantoaxial joint
6intracranial haemorage
7hypoxia.read

Tip.4.Eclampsia
It is one of major cause of maternal mortality .
principles of management of Eclampsia
1Resusitation (ABC)

Evaluation...  Painless bright red bleeding,,, placenta previa... Painful dark colour bleeding.. Abruptio placentae.... 
Complications of abruptio placenate 1, DIC 2. Renal failure 3. PPH 4.FETAL DISTRESS 5. FETAL DEATH......NEVER DO PELVIC EZAMINATION IN A CASE OF APH UNLESS PLACENTA PREVIA IS RULED OUT BY ULTRASONOGRAPHY. 
TREATMENT.... INITIAL RESUCITATION..1. Double iv line with wide bore Canulae 2. Blood should be sent fo r grouping cross matching and coagualton profile 3. I v fluids preferably cryatalloids 4. Pass folye cather... Treatment of cause. P previs...type 1 and type 2 anterior vaginal delivery.. Type 2 post Type 3 and 4 c section..abruptio p.. If fetus alive c section.

Gynecology Tips.


Tip 5. Pelvic mass
causes of lower abdominal mass
1 full bladder
2 pregnancy
3 fibroid uterus
4 adenomyosis
5 OVARIAN tumor(benign or malignant)
6 turbo OVARIAN mass
7 non gynacological causes(dnt forget appendicular mass
8 mesentriscyst
9pelvic kidney.
Three important investigations
1 abdominal pelvic usg
2 ct scan
3 doppler usg if OVARIAN tumor.
RX is cause directed .
Pregnancy needs antenatal care
fibroid myomectomy or hysterectomy.
Adenomyosis by hysterectony.
OVARIAN cyst by cystectomy.oophorectomy. laparatomy.
Tuboovaian mass needs laparatomy 

Non gynacological referred to surgeon\

Tip 6. Endomertriosis.
It is the presence of endmetrium out side the uterine cavity,
Adenomyosis is presence of this tissue in myometrium.
Endometriosis usually is a disease of nulliparous women & ademomyosis of PAROUS (mcq)
most common site of endo is ovaries(mcq)where they form Endometromas. Mostly effect 30-45 years age.major symptoms are Dysmenorrhea(D/D PID in PID dys starts before mens arnd relived at onset but in end it remains throghout mens )Dyspareunia&infertllity.
Investigation of choice is Laparoscopy(mcq)usg(endometroma)Ca 125(NON SPECIFIC)
TREATMENT DEPENDS UPON AGE PARITY &REPRODUCTIVE WISHES.
SURGERY IS RADICAL (TAH & BSO IF FAMILY IS COMPLETE AND AGE IS MORE THAN 40)CONSEVATIVE SURGERY .. REMOVAL OF ENDOMETROMA IF FAMILY NOT COMPLETE.
MEDICAL MANAGMENT IS DANAZOL(ANDROGENIS DRUG)ORAL CONTARCEPTIVE PILLS (CONTINEOUS WITHOUT A BREAK , PSEUDO PREGNANCY TREATMENT)PROGESTERONS OR GNRH ANALOUGES(DEPOT INJECTIONS THREE MONTHLY ENDOMETROSIS IS A V TROUBLSOME.




Tip11.D&C

Tip. uterovaginal prolapse
...protrusion of uterus or vagina beyond their normal anatomical confines,,
types of prolapse... Cystocel.. Urethrocel.. Uterovaginal..rectocel...enterocel...
normal support of pelvic viscera 1.  Cardinal ligaments 2. Uterosacral ligaments 3.pubocervical ligament 4. Pubo urethral ligament 5. Muscles of pelvic floor ,,round ligament keeps the uterus anteverted and have v little role in the support.... 
Degress of prolapse,,, 1st degree,, when leading part of prolapse is above the introitus.. 2nd degree.. When leading part outside of introitus,,, 3rd degree,,, when whole uterus lies outside the introitus,,also caled PROCEDENTIA...
Complications of prolapse.. Ulcer formation::incarceration,, STRESS INCONTINECE..
Treatment of prolapse.. Surgery is the defiantive treatment. If woman is postmeopausal or family is complete operation is VAGINAL HYSTERECTOMY and ANT  &POST calpoperinorraphy..if family is not complete than Manchester repair or sling operation,,,, if pt not fit for surgery than Ring pessary..
