“Implementing Health Reforms for the Rapid Reduction of Maternal and Neonatal Mortality”
To ensure rapid reduction of maternal and child mortality, the DOH issued Administrative Order 2008-2009 entitled;
Maternal Mortality rate
What does MMR mean?
Majority of maternal deaths directly result from pregnancy complications occurring during labor, delivery and the post-partum period
Majority of maternal deaths directly result from _________________ occurring during labor, delivery and the post-partum period
❑ Mistimed, unplanned, unwanted and unsupported pregnancy
❑ Not securing adequate care during pregnancy

❑ Not securing proper post-partum and newborn care for the mother and her newborn, respectively.
4 RISK FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO MATERNAL AND NEONATAL DEATHS
24-48 hours
What is considered as vigilance stage for hemorrhage during postpartum
Abortus
an embryo or fetus that is removed or expelled from the uterus at 20 weeks of gestation or less, weighs 500g or less, or measures 25 cm or less
Pregnancy-Associated Deaths
all deaths during pregnancy and within the 1 year following the end of pregnancy
Birth Rate
number of live births in 1 year per 1000 population
Pregnancy Related Deaths
deaths that are a complication of pregnancy, an aggravation of an unrelated condition by the physiology of pregnancy, or a chain of events initiated by the pregnancy
Fertility Rate
number of births per 1000 women between the ages of 15 and 44 years (inclusive), calculated on an annual basis
Neonatal Mortality Rate
number of deaths of infants younger than 28 days of age per 1000 live births.
Perinatal Mortality Rate
number of stillbirths and number of neonatal deaths per 1000 live births
Maternal Mortality Rate
number of maternal deaths from births and complications of pregnancy, childbirth, and puerperium (the first 42 days after termination of the pregnancy) per 100,000 live births
Stillbirth
an infant who at birth demonstrates no signs of life such as breathing, heartbeat, or voluntary muscle movements
Genetics
is the study of the way such disorders occur.
3 generations
Assessment measures for genetic disorders begin with a detailed family history, preferably of how many generations
A-Fetoprotein
a protein produced by the liver and yolk sac of a developing baby during pregnancy.
Chronic Villi Sampling (CVS) and amniocentesis
are both techniques that may be offered to women who are older than 35 years of age, or to those whose genetic testing is abnormal, to diagnose chromosomal genetic disorders
Inherited or genetic disorders
are disorders that can be passed form one generation to the next because they result from some disorder in the gene or chromosome structure.
occur in some ethnic groups more than others because people tend to marry within their own cultural group.
Genetic disorders
CYTOGENETICS
is the study of chromosomes by light microscopy and the method by which chromosomal aberrations are identified.
GENE REPLACEMENT THERAPY
is encouraging in the treatment of blood, neural tube, eye, and congenital metabolic disorders as well as for cancers and immunodeficiency syndromes.
STEM CELLS
can be obtained from bone marrow (adult cells), embryos, or umbilical cord blood (embryonic stem cells).
Genes
are the basic units of heredity that determine both physical and cognitive characteristics of people
A person’s phenotype refers to his or her outward appearance or the expression of genes
A person’s ________ refers to his or her outward appearance or the expression of genes
A person’s genotype refers to his or her actual gene composition
A person’s ________ refers to his or her actual gene composition
person who has two like genes for a trait–two healthy genes, for example (one from the mother and one from the father) is said to be homozygous for that trait
person who has two like genes for a trait–two healthy genes, for example (one from the mother and one from the father) is said to be____________for that trait
the genes differ (a healthy gene from the mother and an unhealthy gene from the father, or vice versa), the person is said to be heterozygous for that trait
the genes differ (a healthy gene from the mother and an unhealthy gene from the father, or vice versa), the person is said to be _______________ for that trait
genetic assessment
A ___________ begins with careful study of the pattern of inheritance in a family
DERMATOGLYPHICS
the study of surface markings of the skin) is also helpful because unusual fingerprints, abnormal palmar creases, hair whorls, or coloring of hair are also present with some disorders

This involves taking a small sample of placental tissue (chorionic villi) to analyze the baby's chromosomes. It is typically performed between 10 and 13 weeks of pregnancy.

Collection of amniotic fluid containing fetal skin cells through maternal abdomen . It is usually performed between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy.
PERCUTANEOUS UMBILICAL BLOOD SAMPLING
Fetal umbilical blood sampling through maternal abdomen usually after 18 weeks, and is often used when other tests have shown a potential problem.
Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD):
Cell sample obtained from day 3 or day 5 embryo prior to implantation in mother during in vitro fertilization process
Nuchal Translucency (NT) Scan
This is an ultrasound performed between 11 and 13 weeks of pregnancy to measure the fluid at the back of the baby's nec
Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) Screening
This blood test analyzes fragments of fetal DNA circulating in the mother's bloodstream. It can be used to screen for conditions such as Down syndrome and trisomy 18.
18-22 weeks, ideal timing to assess the baby's physical development and look for any abnormalities.
Fetal Anatomy Ultrasound:
NEWBORN SCREENING
A blood sample via heel prick or blood draw from newborn blood draw from newborn peior to discharge
1. ALTERNATIVE INSEMINATION
instillation of sperm from a masturbatory sample into the female reproductive tract by means of a cannula to aid conception at the time of ovulation

both donor ova & sperm are used is a woman who agrees to carry the pregnancy to term for a sub fertile couple or an LGBT couple
TYPES OF SURROGACIES
TRADITIONAL SURROGACY
Surrogate is the biological mother of the baby she carries.
Gestational pregnancy
The statement "Surrogate does not use her own egg and, therefore, is not biologically related to the child she’s carrying" best describes which type of surrogacy?
Compensated Surrogacy
A surrogate will receive base compensation for carrying the intended parents’ child. in addition to the coverage of all pregnancy-related costs
ALTRUISTIC SURROGACY
Surrogate does not receive any additional compensation beyond the coverage of pregnancy-related costs.
Adoption
usually refers to the legal process of becoming a nonbiological parent to a child.
ADOPTION PROCESS
the process through which the adopted child becomes the lawful child of his adoptive parents with all the rights, privileges and responsibilities that are attached to a biological child.
AGENCY ADOPTIONS
FAMILY OR RELATIVE ADOPTIONS
PRIVATE OR INDEPENDENT ADOPTIONS
LOCAL ADOPTION IN THE PHILIPPINES THREE TYPES OF ADOPTION
Agency Adoptions
licensed agency finds and develops adoptive families
Family adoptions
biological parents make a direct placement of the child to a relative or a member of their extended family
PRIVATE OR INDEPENDENT ADOPTIONS
either be a direct placement to a family known by the child's biological parents or through the use of an intermediary or a go-between
CHILD – FREE LIVING
known as Voluntary Childlessness. Can be fulfilling as having children because it allows the couple more time to help other people and contribute to society through personal accomplishments
SURROGATE EMBRYO TRANSFER
• for a woman who does not produce ova • the oocyte is donated by a friend, relative or a donor
• the menstrual cycle of the donor & recipient is synchronized
