Respuesta
-
ligamentum arteriosus
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
Unlike anywhere else in the body, [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] acts as a vasoconstrictor in the ductus arteriosus thus contributing towards its closure following birth.
[blank_start]A reduction[blank_end] in the level of prostaglandins in the blood also contributes towards ductus arteriosus closure following birth
Respuesta
-
A reduction
-
An increase
-
oxygen
-
nitrogen
-
carbon dioxide
Pregunta 12
Pregunta
Oxygen typically acts as a [blank_start]vasodilator[blank_end] in the body's blood vessels
Respuesta
-
vasodilator
-
vasoconstrictor
Pregunta 13
Pregunta
The foramen in the foetal heart allowing right to left shunting of blood via the atria is called the foramen [blank_start]ovale[blank_end]
Respuesta
-
ovale
Pregunta 14
Pregunta
Which form of fat is produced in excess by the foetus in the final stages of pregnancy in order to facilitate thermogeneration upon entrance to the world?
Respuesta
-
White fat
-
Brown fat
Pregunta 15
Pregunta
Fat Types:
[blank_start]White fat[blank_end] = Good for energy storage
[blank_start]Brown fat[blank_end] = Good for quick breakdown and energy release (e.g. thermogeneration)
Respuesta
-
Brown fat
-
White fat
Pregunta 16
Pregunta
The fat pad that typically generates between the scapulae of the foetus in late pregnancy typically consists of which type of fat?

Respuesta
-
Brown
-
White
Pregunta 17
Pregunta
One of the main worries for the baby during late pregnancy/labour/birth is the development of hypoxia. Hypoxia in a foetus would likely lead to ...
Respuesta
-
Metabolic acidosis
-
Metabolic alkalosis
-
Respiratory acidosis
-
Respiratory alkalosis
Pregunta 18
Pregunta
Persistence of the foetal circulation (patent foramen ovale/ductus arteriosus/etc) can lead to the pulmonary vessels not opening properly thus causing persistent pulmonary [blank_start]hypertension[blank_end] of the newborn (PPHN)
Respuesta
-
hypertension
-
hypotension
Pregunta 19
Pregunta
Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn is investigated by measuring the oxygen saturations of the hands and feet.
In a case of PPHN:
The [blank_start]hands[blank_end] will have a near normal O2 saturation
The [blank_start]feet[blank_end] will have an abnormal O2 saturation
Respuesta
-
feet
-
hands
-
hands
-
feet
Pregunta 20
Pregunta
Management of PPHN is via multiple processes, one of which is ventilation using oxygen and which other vasodilating molecule?
[blank_start]Nitric oxide[blank_end]
Respuesta
-
Nitric oxide
Pregunta 21
Pregunta
Inotropes such as [blank_start]adrenaline[blank_end] are also given in order to raise the [blank_start]systemic[blank_end] blood pressure above the [blank_start]pulmonary[blank_end] pressure thus allowing the blood to force itself into the pulmonary circulation, hopefully solving the problem.
Respuesta
-
adrenaline
-
oxytocin
-
oxygen
-
magnesium sulphate
-
systemic
-
pulmonary
-
pulmonary
-
systemic
Pregunta 22
Pregunta
Transient [blank_start]tachypnoea[blank_end] occurs in infants when there is insufficient clearing of fluid from the foetal lungs
Respuesta
-
tachypnoea
Pregunta 23
Pregunta
Neonates typically do not shiver in order to produce heat. Preterm neonates are therefore more likely to become hypothermic due to a lower content of [blank_start]brown fat[blank_end]
Respuesta
-
brown fat
-
white fat
-
glycogen
Pregunta 24

The [blank_start]rooting[blank_end] reflex
Respuesta
-
rooting
Pregunta 26
Pregunta
Noramly breastfeeding should involve the neonate's tongue pushing the nipple against the [blank_start]soft[blank_end] palate in order to facilitate lactation

soft
-
hard

Adult haemoglobin is produced in the [blank_start]bone marrow[blank_end]
Respuesta
-
liver
-
bone marrow
