This 5-minute video demonstrates how to examine the abdomen during pregnancy. Using both graphics and actual video, important findings are illustrated, including the normal anatomic changes that occur over the course of the pregnancy. Changes in location of the diaphragm, appendix and gallbladder are illustrated. The technique of measuring the fundal height is shown and applied to evaluation of gestational age, fetal growth, and estimation of fetal weight. The four Leopold Maneuvers are shown both on a live patient and on a fetal model, to better explain how the maneuvers are used clinically. This CD contains a medium-resolution version (Television quality, for slower processor speeds), and a high-resolution version (DVD quality) for computers with higher processor speeds. |
