89.99$ Instead of 825$
Now in its 48ᵗʰ year, UCSF’s flagship obstetrics program delivers the latest evidence and practical algorithms for antepartum and intrapartum care—including fetal heart-rate interpretation, hypertension, Rh management, twins, autoimmune disease, PPROM, pelvic-floor preservation, perinatal collaboratives, and more.
What You’ll Learn
Counsel & manage patients on Rh alloimmunization with non-invasive fetal blood-typing tools.
Interpret pathologic placenta/cord ultrasound findings and decide when to intervene.
Refine labor management: induction updates, Category II tracings, terminal bradycardia timing.
Optimize care of twin gestations, short cervix, PPROM, and fetal-growth restriction.
Minimize pelvic-floor injury through delivery-technique adjustments and postpartum rehab.
Diagnose & treat autoimmune and hypertensive disorders antepartum and postpartum.
Leverage statewide perinatal collaboratives to reduce morbidity and mortality.
8 Take-Home Clinical Pearls
cffDNA Rh genotyping now approved at 10 weeks—cuts anti-D use by 40 %.
Placental lakes + cord insert anomalies double FGR risk—initiate q2-week growth scans.
AIM bundles for postpartum HTN reduce readmissions by 60 %; implement before discharge.
Race-concordant teams increase prenatal-visit adherence and lower preterm birth in Black patients.
Twin-TAPS screening: weekly MCA Dopplers starting 26 wks improves neonatal outcomes.
Category II algorithm: Stripe rule (baseline, variability, waves) guides escalation vs expectant.
Short cervix ≤25 mm at 18–24 wks: vaginal progesterone decreases PTB by 44 %.
Periviable PPROM: latency antibiotics + steroids prolong pregnancy 7 days median without ↑ infection.
