Time between conception and onset of labor

A woman who is pregnant for the first time

Any pregnancy, regardless of duration, including present pregnancy

A fetus born dead after 20 weeks

A woman who has had one birth at more than 20 weeks gestation, regardless of wheather the infant is born alive or dead

A woman who has not given birth at more than 20 weeks gestation

Labor that occurs after 20 weeks but before the completion of 37 weeks gestation

Time from birth until the woman's body returns to prepregnant condition

A woman who has never been pregnant

Birth after 20 wks gestation, regardless of whether the infant is born alive or dead

The normal duration of pregnancy (38-42weeks gestation)

A woman who has had two or more births at more than 20 wks gestation

Time from onset of labor until the birth of the infant and placenta

Bluish color or the hands and feet

Swelling due to maternal hormones

Swelling of soft tissues of head and scalp

Enlargement resulting from bleeding beneath the periosteum

sign of possible fracture due to delivery trauma

Small, shiny, yellow-white nodules on palate

Small red patches on cheeks or trunk

tongue thrust

Line dividing bright red body half from pale body half

Fine, downy hair often found on forehead, ears and shoulders

pinnas below level of outer canthus of eyes

protruding tongue

small white papules caused by blocked sebaceous glands

Bluish-black ares on buttocks of dark-skinned babies

Widening of nares on respiration

thorax pulls inward and abdomen bulges outward

protruding tongue

Crossed eys

Red areas in eyes due to pressure during delivery

Cheesy white substance composed of sebum and skin cells

Yellow discharge from cord

Formation of antibodies by the pregnant woman in response to illness or immunization

The contracting force between alveoli

Fat deposits in newborns that provide greater heat generating activity than ordinary fat. Found around the kindesys, adrenals and neck;between the scapulas and behind the sternum,

Adaptation of the newborn's cardiovascular and respiratory systems to life outside the womb.

Loss of heat to a cooler surface by direct skn contact

Loss of heat incurred when water on the skin surface is converted to a vapor

Intrauterine practice respiratory movements that begin around the 17th-20 wk of gestation

The amount of air remaining in the lungs at the end of a normal expiration

Infant's ability to diminish innate responses to specific repeated stimuli

The ease with which the lung is able to fill with air

Dark green or black material present in the large intestine of a full term infant;the first stools passed by the newborn

The first few hours of life, in which the newborn stabilizes his or her respiratory and circulatory functions.

Infant's ability to respond to auditory and visual stimuli in the environment

Transfer of antibodies (IgG) from the mother to the fetus in utero

Sporadic episodes of apnea, not associated with cyanosis, that lasts for about 10 seconds and commonly occur in preterm infants

predictable patterns of newborn behavior during the first several hours after birth.

The initial decline in hemoglobin that has declined during the first 2 months after birth

The accelerated destruction of fetal RBC's, impaired conjugation of bilirubin and increased bilirubin absorption from the intestinal tract. This condition does not have a pathologic basis, but rather is a normal biolgic response of the newborn

Newborn care to decrease the probability of high bilirubin levels:

Heat loss when heat transfers to cooler surfaces and objects not in direct contact w/body

Infant's ability to use personal resources to quiet and console himself or herself

A substance composed of phospholipid, which stabilizes and lowers the surface tension of the alveoli during extrauterine respiratory exhalation, allowing a certain amount of air to remain the alveoli during expiration

The newborn's physiologic mechanisms that increase heat production

Sum of conjugated (direct) and unconjugated(indirect) bilirubin

To maintain life, 2 significant changes must take place immediatly following birth for the lungs to begin adequate functiong:

Pathologic events whose events may give rise to physioligic jaundice

The signs of physiologic jaundice appear after _____________ hours, differentiating it from pathologic jaundice

A rise in bilirubin beginning after the first week of life, may last from several weeks to several months
