Obstetrics and Gynecology Faculty Publications

Introduction: Simulation is rarely used for medical student education in the field of obstetrics. This method is an effective model of learning for topics that are encountered in clinical situations and for topics that pose significant risk to patients when an untrained individual is involved. Methods: A 2-hour obstetric delivery simulation session was developed and incorporated into the third-year obstetrics and gynecology clerkship rotation at Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine. Medical students completed self-guided content reviews with resources provided prior to the session. During the session, each medical student conducted a normal vaginal delivery and one of the …

Incidental Recognition Of Umbilical-Portal-Systemic Venous Shunt Diagnosed During Bpp For Decreased Fetal Movement, Kathleen Lundeberg, Adam Hiett

Obstetrics and Gynecology Faculty Publications

Background: The prevalence of prenatally diagnosed umbilical-portal systemic venous shunts (UPSVS) is reportedly rare, ranging from 0.003-0.209% [1]. Disruption in the normal development of the fetal venous system can be caused by primary failure of a system or by secondary occlusion of an already transformed system [2]. While UPSVS’s are rare, the downstream effects are potentially fatal, including intrauterine growth restriction, high output cardiac failure, associated neonatal morbidity and mortality, and thus necessitate early detection with appropriate monitoring.

Introduction: The patient was a 21-year-old G2P1001 who presented to the Maternal Fetal Medicine Ultrasound Genetics (MFMUG) clinic at 36w2d for a …
