I cannot stress it enough how helpful these visual and imagery-driven explanations are to my learning. It really places the body in the diagnosis, as opposed to there being an outside agent taking over the mother's body. Though most of these pregnancy issues are uncontrollable, it helps to witness the chronological steps, even through drawings, of going through the motions of the complications. The woman's body is always fighting! Thank you for thoroughly breaking down the chemistry of the common circumstances that may come with pregnancy, labor, and delivery. #birthinglittlehumans

betamethasone needs from 24 to 48 hours to kick in, So they give tocolytic to delay labor until betamethasone kicks in.

Phenomenal video. Thank you for posting.

Simply superb! Makes learning beautiful and easy 2/9/2018

I love all of the videos you guys post! Very easy to understand and super informative!

a round of applause for this queen, thank you for this video

I knew someone who had a baby at 27 weeks , he was so blessed to survive he was only 1 lb , he is a happy baby but has developed cerebral palsy and developmental delays by 4 months and has frequent doctor visits because of the trauma of his birth . #birthinglittlehumans

Thank God you "dumb" it down some. I totally get it now!!!! Thank you!!!!!

Great video, but I am still confused in regards to magnesium sulfate. Magnesium Sulfate is a tocolytic. So it is given after 34 weeks gestation (obviously before 37 weeks) with betamethasone and before 34 weeks gestation (after 20 weeks gestation)? Any input will help.

thank you very much khan Academy I understand it vey clear

thank you so mutch ..

thanx a lot so helpful ♥

Brilliant teaching aids

steroid think fetal lungs. administer steroid improve fetal lung function. because the baby's lungs and liver are the last to develop

It's amazing

what is the priority nursing focus assessment to be done for preterm labor?

thanks

Great info! #birthinglittlehumans

Betamethasone is used for fetal lung maturity in case the tocolytic therapy doesn't work and the labor is going to happen. Tocolytic therapy is used as an attemption to try to stop the contractions from happening and to prolong the pregnancy and not as a method of giving steroids time to kick in. Also magnesiun sulfate IS a tocolytic therapy, together with nifedipine and prostaglandin synthetase inhibitors, and, is not a drug that might prevent brain damaging or whatever. I was watching this video as a way to remember the lession, but now, i have to get back to the book and read it all over, because your video messed all my infos.

The treatment for pre term labor is terbutaline

If the steroid injection is administered to a woman in preterm labour but she goes on to deliver full term, will this have an effect on the baby?

Thanks you Dr Igudia on KZread for all you do in my life and my family. I went for a test today after taking the medication i ordered from Dr Igudia and I tested type 2 Diabetes negative. Thanks doctor I will keep letting the world know about your good work sir.
