Tocomonitor: Empowering Individuals to Make Informed Health Choices
– TOCO number is a measurement of the pressure force produced by the abdomen during uterine contractions
– TOCO numbers are displayed in mmHg (millimeters of mercury)
– Braxton Hicks contractions have a TOCO number between 5-25 mmHg
– True labor contractions have a TOCO number between 40-60 mmHg during the active phase and 50-80 mmHg during the second stage of labor
– Various ways to alleviate contraction pressure or pain during labor
– For Braxton Hicks contractions: changing positions, taking a warm bath, drinking water
– For true labor contractions: breathing exercises, walking, massage therapy, aromatherapy, warm or hot compresses
– Epidural as a form of regional anesthesia that can help with pain during labor
– An epidural can be started at any time during labor but may cause loss of feeling in the lower half of the body and restrict movement
– No guaranteed method that works for everyone
– Different positions like squatting or using an exercise ball can help with true labor contractions
– Mention of loss of feeling below the waist and restricted mobility as potential side effects of epidural
Antenatal Diagnosis: Empowering parents with invaluable prenatal insights
List:
– Antenatal care is important for detecting abnormalities and preventing illnesses in mother and child during pregnancy
– Regular antenatal check-ups and weekly classes can benefit pregnant women and their child
– Screening during antenatal care can detect and prevent complications like hypertension and pregnancy diabetes
– Certain foods should be avoided during pregnancy, such as raw fish, undercooked eggs, and unpasteurised/soft cheese
– Prenatal vitamins, including folic acid and pregnancy multivitamins, are important for the health of the child
– Antenatal classes provide support, education on pregnancy, child development, and post-birth care
– Antenatal care also educates expectant fathers on their role during pregnancy
Fetal Tone: Understanding the Importance of Prenatal Development
– A biophysical profile (BPS or BPP) is a test performed after 32 weeks of pregnancy to evaluate the fetus’s health.
– It is typically done for high-risk pregnancies or when there are irregular test results.
– The test uses ultrasound to evaluate four areas: fetal body movement, muscle tone, breathing movements, and amniotic fluid volume.
– A scoring system is used to rate the fetus in each area.
– If one or more of the areas are not met, a nonstress test may be needed to assess the fetus’s heart rate.
– A modified biophysical profile combines a nonstress test with an ultrasound assessment of amniotic fluid.
– The purpose of a biophysical profile is to assess the fetus’s well-being.
– It may be ordered for high-risk pregnancies or pregnancies that go beyond 40 weeks.
– The five parameters of a biophysical profile include a nonstress test and four ultrasound assessments.
– A biophysical profile is a test used in the third trimester of pregnancy to assess the unborn baby’s overall health.
– It combines a nonstress test, which checks the baby’s heart rate and contractions, with an ultrasound evaluation.
– Five areas are assessed during the profile: body movements, muscle tone, breathing movements, amniotic fluid, and heartbeat.
– Each area is given a score of either 0 (abnormal) or 2 (normal), and the total score ranges from 0 to 10.
– A score of 8 or 10 is considered normal, while 6 is borderline and below 6 indicates possible problems.
– The test can help determine if the baby needs to be born early.
– Reasons for needing a biophysical profile include concerns about the baby’s health, decreased fetal movement, fetal growth problems, or pregnancy going past 42 weeks.
– The procedure is safe and painless, involving sensors attached to belts for the nonstress test and an ultrasound wand with gel for the ultrasound.
– The test poses very little risk to the mother and baby, and concerns about ultrasounds over a long period of time have not been proven.
– Mothers should discuss any concerns with their healthcare provider.
– A biophysical profile is a test done during pregnancy to assess the health of the fetus.
– It is typically done after 32 to 34 weeks of pregnancy.
– The test involves a nonstress test and an ultrasound.
– The results of the test are scored based on the baby’s body movements, muscle tone, breathing movements, amniotic fluid, and heartbeat.
– Depending on the score, the healthcare provider may suggest inducing labor or delivering the baby by C-section if the score is low, while if the score is normal, the pregnancy can continue as usual.
– There are no special precautions to take after the test.
– The article advises individuals to discuss the test and any instructions with their healthcare provider before agreeing to it.

Flexion: The Key to Unlocking Your Body’s Potential
Pertinent List for Keyword ‘flexion’:
– Flexion is the bending of an arm or leg, decreasing the angle between bones at a joint.
– Hyperflexion is when a joint is bent beyond its normal range of motion, potentially causing injury.
– The opposite of flexion is extension, which is the straightening of a joint.
– Normal extension is typically limited to 180 degrees or less.
– Hyperextension is an extreme version of extension that can result in injury.
– Joints have a predetermined range of motion, measured in degrees.
– Flexion refers to a decrease in the angle between two body parts, such as the elbow and the knee.
– Extension refers to an increase in the angle between two body parts, such as the elbow and the knee.
