diagnostic data of hydramnios

Its called RULE OF 2.
Polyhydramnios = amount of liquor 2L
Oligohydramnios = 0.2L
sonographically, poly = vertical pool 10-2 0r more
oligo = vertical pool 2 or less.
AFI, poly = 5^2
oligo = 10/2

Manning score (BPP)

"T.B. (tuburcular) MAN has manning score."
T-Tone of fetus
B-Breathing of fetus
M-Movement of fetus
A-Amniotic fluid volume
N-Nonstress test

Here "MAN" is also for "MANning score.".
It is also c/a BPP (Biophysical Profile)
Use for fetal monitoring.

PROSTAGLANDINS confusion

A)All have "1 MISS"
means
MISoprostol is PGE1.

B)cErviprimE has 2E so
cErviprimE is PGE2.

C)DInoproSTONE
DI=2
Remember that "stonE" in both(2) kidney n "stonE" has "E".
So DINOPROSTONE is PGE2.

D)DINO mario has 2 FArari CAR.
DINO-DINOPROST
2 FArari-F2A [A for Alpha]
CAR-CARBOPROST
so
DINOPROST n CARBOPROST r PGF2alpha

Note: DINOPROSTONE is PGE2 which is remember by 2 kidney stonE bt DINOPROST is PGF2alpha.
