Ob Red Alert

Had a class on Ob emergencies. Four common emergencies had been performed together with sem 9 seniors: Cord prolapse, eclampsia, postpartum haemorrhage (PPH), and shoulder dystocia. The sem 9 seniors were the ones that showed us how to handle an Ob emergency. We had our all time favourite actors to help us: Jen Lye as the patient in cord prolapse, Kajen as the patient in eclampsia, Wen Leong as the patient in PPH, and Eugene as the patient in shoulder dystocia.

1. Jen Lye: Heard a 'pop' sound with gush of liqour, on digital vaginal examination by a house officer, was found to have cord prolapse, had to deliver via ELSCS (no choice-lah~)
2. Kajen: Admitted due to hypertension and severe proteinuria with headache and epigastric, went fitted on the bed, treated as eclampsia, also had to deliver via ELSCS
3. Wen Leong: Delivered 'her' baby, but there was severe bleeding, with possible uterine atony, alerted as PPH (No worries for 'her' baby. Just have to save him from going into shock)
4. Eugene: Man of the day, who was halfway delivering 'her' baby, was found that there was shoulder dystocia by house officers, was asked to be in McRobert's position (well, kind of obscene position whereby you have to abduction and flex your hips until the chest), few manoeuvres were tried before sending him to OT for ELSCS

Interesting class. Very funny. I enjoyed it. However, I almost dose-off in the next class. What a tiring day. Seksa-nya! Anyway, going to gym now. Need to increase some blood flowing into my cerebrae! :D
