外傷後造成胎兒死亡的原因

第一名: maternal death


第二名: abruptio placentae

胎盤早期剝離的發生率
1-5 % of minor injuries VS. 40-50% of major injuries


胎盤早期剝離的典型症狀: painful vaginal bleeding in the 3rd trimester
1) abdominal pain
2) vaginal bleeding
3) tetanic uterine contractions

懷孕時為何不宜將靜脈導管放置在鼠蹊部及下肢?

Placement of intravenous lines in the groin and lower extremity should be avoided if possible

because of inferior vena cava compression by the uterus

and

to avoid pooling in engorged or injured pelvic veins.

何謂 supine hypotension syndrome?

發生在懷孕第 18~20 週

因為日漸擴大的子宮在躺臥時 supine position 壓迫下腔靜脈 inferior vena cava 進而造成回心靜脈血量 venous return 以及心輸出量 cardia output 下降,進而造成低血壓 hypotension


因此,在進行搬運超過 20 週的懷孕婦女時,應注意保持左傾 30 度,或直接將子宮推向左側,

使用 PAST (pneumatic anti-shock trousers) 時,勿將 abdominal compartment 充氣

NHTSA 建議孕婦繫安全帶的方法

lap belt:
as low as possible under the gravid uterus
across both the anterior superior iliac spines and symphysis pubis

shoulder harness:
snugly between the breasts
off to the side of the uterus

neurogenic shock

-- The presence of shock in a pt with a head injury necessitates a search for another cause of shock. (Isolated intracranial injuries do not cause shock)

-- mechanism: loss of sympathetic tone
shock without tachycardia
shock without cutaneous vasoconstriction
shock without a narrowed pulse pressure

-- management: initially same as hypovolemia
Failure to restore organ perfusion with fluid resuscitation suggests
either continuing hemorrhage or neurogenic shock.
(CVP monitoring may be helpful in managing this sometimes complex problem.)

tension pneumothorax

-- a true surgical emergency (without waiting for x-ray confirmation)

-- mechanism: one-way valve → ↑ intrapleural pressure → lung collapse →
mediastinal shift → venous return ↓ → cardiac output ↓

-- S/S: hypotension associated with
absent breath sound, tracheal shift, jugular vein engorgement, hypoxia

-- needle thoracostomy:
2nd intercostal space at midclavicular line or
5th intercostal space at midaxillary line

cardiac tamponade 和 tension pneumothorax 有何共通之處?

Ans: 都需要戳一針 (one for pericardial sac; one for pleural space)

靜思語 - 布施不一定要有錢,但一定要有心。
