How to successfully protect the fetus from premature rupture of amniotic fluid? In fact, pregnant women will feel many different things from pregnancy to delivery. During this period, the pregnant woman's body will also have many different changes. Let's learn how to successfully protect the fetus from premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
How to protect the fetus from premature rupture of amniotic fluid 1 When premature rupture of amniotic fluid occurs, the following measures can be taken to protect the fetus.
First, the use of drugs to inhibit uterine contraction often leads to the feeling of uterine contraction shortly after the premature rupture of amniotic fluid. Using magnesium sulfate and amber can inhibit uterine contraction and continue to maintain pregnancy.
Second, the biggest risk after premature rupture of amniotic fluid is intra-amniotic infection, so antibiotics should be used to prevent infection. Commonly used antibiotics include cephalosporins and penicillin.
Third, after the premature rupture of amniotic fluid, the buttocks can be appropriately raised to reduce the outflow of amniotic fluid and the decline of fetal head. Fourthly, after premature rupture of amniotic fluid, dexamethasone can be used to promote fetal lung maturity to avoid neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.
What about premature rupture of amniotic fluid?
1, ask people around you for help.
If expectant mothers suddenly find that their amniotic fluid is broken when they go out shopping, they should immediately ask people around them for help. With the help of others, find a flat place to lie down first. If you can put a pillow under your ass, it will effectively slow down the outflow of amniotic fluid and help win more production time. At this time, we should call an ambulance immediately and send the parturient to the nearest hospital as soon as possible so that the doctor can take further production measures.
If the expectant mothers have their amniotic fluid broken at home, all these things will be done with the help of their families until the mother and fetus are safe.
Don't rush home to prepare.
Some women are afraid of what they have prepared before. They didn't bring anything for production, and insisted on going home to get something before going to the hospital. This is not right. Because the amniotic fluid reaches a certain level, the fetus will be deprived of oxygen, which will directly affect the healthy breathing of the fetus. After the amniotic fluid is broken, expectant mothers must be calm and know how to make judgments. They should be sent to the hospital first, and then the family members should send what they need to the hospital, instead of wasting the baby's time on the road and endangering the life of the fetus.
Step 3 follow the doctor's advice
In the case of severe water breakthrough, the fetus may be seriously deprived of oxygen and can no longer give birth naturally. Urgent measures must be taken to remove the fetus by laparotomy to ensure the healthy survival of the fetus. However, in the case that the amniotic fluid is only slightly broken, the mother still has a lot of time to give birth by herself. Doctors generally advise women to give birth naturally, which is better for the health of mother and baby. It is best to listen to the doctor's advice whether to have a caesarean section after water is broken, not necessarily 100% caesarean section.
4, other matters needing attention after breaking water
After the water is broken, women should first keep calm and not be scared, which is even more detrimental to production. For how to protect the fetus and herself after breaking water, women should first master some simple emergency measures, such as lying flat, raising their hips and slowing down the outflow of amniotic fluid. Don't shout loudly. Only by maintaining your physical strength can you cooperate with the doctor to give birth. If you yell before, you won't need it when the doctor asks for cooperation, which is not conducive to the smooth delivery of the fetus. Pay attention to personal hygiene and avoid infection when amniotic fluid is broken.
Five causes of premature rupture of amniotic fluid
1, pregnant women's cervix relaxes, which stimulates fetal membranes and leads to premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
2, fetal membrane dysplasia, such as amniotic inflammation. , resulting in excessive pressure in the amniotic cavity, causing premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
3. Abnormal fetal position, pelvic stenosis, head-basin disproportion, polyhydramnios, multiple pregnancy, etc. Will increase the pressure in the amniotic cavity, leading to premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
4. Inadvertent sexual life during pregnancy causes amniotic chorionic infection, especially prostaglandin in semen can induce uterine contraction, resulting in uneven amniotic cavity pressure and premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
5, other factors can also cause premature rupture of amniotic fluid, such as severe cough during pregnancy, sudden laughter or rage, engaging in heavy physical labor, etc., which can increase abdominal pressure sharply, leading to rupture of fetal membranes and amniotic fluid flowing out of the vagina.
Harm of premature rupture of amniotic fluid
1, resulting in premature delivery of fetus.
Fetal membrane is the protective film of fetus. If the fetal membrane ruptures prematurely, amniotic fluid will flow out prematurely and lose its protective effect on the fetus. Because amniotic fluid flows out, the uterus will become smaller, constantly stimulating uterine contraction. At this time, if the fetus is less than one month old, premature delivery will occur. However, premature infants have not fully developed organ function, low weight and poor living ability, and are prone to premature death.
2, causing fetal distress.
If the fetal presentation is uncertain before labor, the umbilical cord will prolapse with the outflow of amniotic fluid, resulting in fetal distress.
3, causing labor stagnation and fetal hypoxia.
If the amniotic fluid flows out too much, the uterus will cling to the fetal body, stimulate the uterus to cause uncoordinated contractions, affect the progress of labor and the blood circulation of the placenta, and lead to delayed labor and fetal hypoxia.
4, causing mother-to-child infection
The longer the rupture time of fetal membrane, the greater the chance of intrauterine infection. If the fetus inhales infected amniotic fluid, it will cause aspiration pneumonia. In addition, women are prone to infection or puerperal infection during childbirth.
How to distinguish premature rupture of amniotic fluid?
When premature rupture of amniotic fluid occurs, many times women often think that they have wet their underwear, but they don't know that it is premature rupture of amniotic fluid. However, it is very important to determine premature rupture of amniotic fluid as soon as possible, to avoid bacteria from infecting the fetus through vagina, and to avoid complications such as umbilical cord prolapse.
When the parturient is not sure whether it is premature rupture of amniotic fluid or urine outflow, a specific chemical test paper can be placed in the vagina. If the amniotic fluid is premature, the amniotic fluid flowing in the vagina will turn the orange test paper into dark green. Take the test paper to the hospital and observe it under the microscope. You can see the small fat lumps and fetal hair in the amniotic fluid, and then you can determine that the amniotic fluid has broken early.
How to protect the fetus from premature rupture of amniotic fluid II. Premature rupture of amniotic fluid is naturally very dangerous, which can easily lead to suffocation and death of the baby. After the amniotic fluid is broken, you must call the emergency hospital and take some rescue measures in time, such as oxygen inhalation. If necessary, you can take anti-abortion drugs for a period of time. There are many reasons for premature rupture of amniotic fluid, such as improper sexual life, inflammation of reproductive system, abnormal fetal position, etc., and timely measures should be taken to improve these.
Now everyone knows the importance of prenatal and postnatal care, so many people will do a good job of pregnancy preparation in advance and finally get pregnant successfully. Everyone is in a state of joy, but some women suddenly find that their amniotic fluid breaks prematurely in the late pregnancy. If the amniotic fluid breaks, the situation of the baby and pregnant friends will be very dangerous. So can amniotic fluid break early to protect the baby?
Is premature rupture of amniotic fluid successful in 23 weeks of pregnancy? Yes
If the amniotic fluid is not broken too much, we can protect the fetus. Everyone goes to the hospital first, most of them need oxygen, which can avoid the baby's lack of oxygen. Then, at the same time, be sure to stay in bed and don't walk often. This can play a preventive role, and of course it can also protect the fetus.
Causes of premature rupture of amniotic fluid
Factor 1: sex life
In the third trimester of pregnancy, the sensitivity of the uterus increases, and external stimulation can easily lead to uterine contraction in women. Prostaglandin in semen can also stimulate uterine contraction. During sexual life, women's abdomen is squeezed and collided, which leads to increased pressure. These comprehensive factors may lead to the rupture of amniotic fluid in women.
Factor 2: Genital tract inflammation
Vaginitis and cervicitis also easily lead to fetal membrane infection, which eventually leads to amniotic fluid rupture, mainly because pathogens are complex, including bacteria and pathogens, especially mycoplasma and chlamydia infection, which generally have no obvious symptoms and are not easy to be found by women.
Factor 3: Abnormal fetal position.
There is too much amniotic fluid. Because the pressure in amniotic cavity is relatively high, women are prone to premature rupture of membranes and asymmetry of head and basin. Uneven pressure in amniotic cavity may also lead to rupture of amniotic fluid in women.
Factor 4: unreasonable nutrition
The causes of amniotic fluid rupture actually include malnutrition and lack of elasticity in women. Some women may have their own cervical diseases, and some women have premature rupture of amniotic fluid due to external forces.
Premature rupture of amniotic fluid may also successfully protect the fetus if emergency measures can be taken in time. There are many reasons for premature rupture of amniotic fluid, such as malnutrition in pregnant women, improper sexual life in the third trimester, or abnormal fetal position. These factors will not only lead to premature rupture of amniotic fluid, but also lead to difficulties in maternal delivery, so try to avoid them.
How to protect the fetus from premature rupture of amniotic fluid 3. Family treatment of premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
First of all, pregnant women should not panic. They should lie quietly on the bed, put the pillow under their hips, raise their hips, keep their heads as low as possible and keep their hips high. The purpose of this is umbilical cord prolapse, especially the breech position of fetus and twin mother.
Secondly, the parturient should put a clean sanitary towel on the vulva pad, pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and not re-bathing.
Thirdly, premature rupture of amniotic fluid means the arrival of labor, so it is advisable to go to the hospital immediately for labor. After admission, according to the specific situation of pregnant women, the doctor will make corresponding treatment.
Four great tricks for premature rupture of amniotic fluid
1, insist on regular prenatal examination, and check every month for 4-6 months 1 time; Check every half month for 7-9 months 1 time; Check weekly for more than 9 months 1 time; Check at any time under special circumstances.
2. Don't engage in strenuous activities in the second and third trimester. Don't be too tired to live and work. Keep a happy mood every day and take a walk outside.
3. It is not advisable to walk or run for a long time. Be careful when walking to avoid falling, especially when going up and down stairs. Don't lift heavy objects for a long time or bump on the road.
4, reduce sexual life during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, and prohibit sexual life after pregnancy 1 month, so as not to stimulate the uterus and cause premature rupture of amniotic fluid.
Pregnant women should pay attention to physical changes whenever and wherever they approach the expected date of delivery. Once abnormal phenomena such as water breakthrough are found, you must be hospitalized immediately for labor. 20%-25% of pregnant women will have premature rupture of membranes during delivery.
