Prenatal Care Management
Manage a pregnancy from the first prenatal visit through delivery preparation with a clear, visit-by-visit plan for screening, monitoring, and risk assessment.
What this track covers
This track covers the full arc of routine prenatal care: the initial visit and dating confirmation, first- and second-trimester screening options, routine surveillance across trimesters, and identification of common complications like gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. It also addresses patient education and third-trimester preparation for labor and postpartum.
What you will practice
- Structuring the initial prenatal visit: history, exam, and dating confirmation
- Counseling on first- and second-trimester screening and diagnostic testing options
- Interpreting routine surveillance findings: fundal height, fetal heart tones, weight gain, blood pressure
- Recognizing risk factors and early signs of gestational diabetes and preeclampsia
- Planning third-trimester surveillance, GBS screening, and labor readiness discussions
Simulator scenario
A routine third-trimester visit where fundal height and blood pressure trends require the clinician to decide whether further workup for a pregnancy complication is warranted.
Board question topics
- First- and second-trimester screening options
- Routine prenatal surveillance parameters
- Gestational diabetes and preeclampsia risk factors
- Third-trimester and labor preparation care
