2 You are the dietitian in a hospital with responsibilities to cover the maternity and pediatric floors. You see both inpatients and outpatients in the women s and children specialty areas. To prepare for potential patients you want to create a set of standards with information about pregnancy, pediatrics, infants, etc. This way when you need to assess a patient you have information quickly and easily accessible. To create your standards complete the information for the pre-worksheet below. Billing and Coding 1. List the three CPT codes that can be used to bill MNT?

List possible nutrition factors that may reduce the risk of Pregnancy Induced Hypertension (PIH) Calcium of 1-2 g/day Vit C (1000 mg) and E (400 IU) reduce oxidative damage before week 20 Omega-3 fatty acids may or may not help (mixed studies) Folate of 600 mcg helps a little bit Eat 5+ fruits and vegetables per day No sodium restrictions unless she has chronic HTP 4. When should pregnant women be screened for gestational diabetes? Why does screening 3

4 take place at this time? A pregnant woman who has risk factors for diabetes should be screened at the prenatal visit to test for type II diabetes. They are then rescreened for gestational diabetes between weeks of gestation. Women who are not at risk of diabetes or who do not currently have diabetes will also be screened at weeks of gestation. This is because in the second or third trimester of pregnancy there is an increase in insulinantagonist hormone levels and a resulting insulin resistance. 5. What is the test is used for screening for gestational diabetes? An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) 6. How is the test administered? 1 Step test: An Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) of 75 g of glucose is given to a woman who is fasting. Her blood glucose levels are taken at fasting, at 1 hour, and at 2 hours. It should be performed after an overnight fast of at least 8 hours. 2 Step test: A nonfasting 50 g glucose load is given and glucose measurements are taken at one hour. If the blood glucose level is 140 mg/dl or higher, a 100 g OGTT is given. The 100 g OGTT is given while fasting. After 3 hours, blood glucose levels are taken. If blood levels exceed 140 mg/dl then gestational diabetes is diagnosed. 7. What are the diagnostic criteria for this test? One step: Fasting: > 94 mg/dl 1 hour: >180 mg/dl 2 hours: >153 mg/dl Two step: 1) >140 mg/dl 1 hour after nonfasting test 2) >140 mg/dl 3 hours after fasting test 8. What are risk factors for developing gestational diabetes? Overweight BMI >25 Gaining too much weight during pregnancy Being physically inactive Having a first degree relative with diabetes Having a previous baby >9 lbs Having PCOS Having high blood pressure Having HDL <35 Being black, Latino, native American, Asian, or Samoan 4

5 9. List at least two ways (equations) to calculate energy needs for a pregnant women Equation #1 Equation #2 Equation No additional calories in the first trimester 340 additional kcal in the second trimester 452 additional kcal in the third trimester 30 kcal/kg if at desirable weight 24 kcal/kg if above desirable weight kcal/kg if below desirable weight Source (e.g. Nutrition care manual, etc.) 10. List one way to calculate protein needs for pregnant women. (Hint look at the DRI) Equation Source (e.g. Nutrition care manual, etc.) Protein needs #1 1.1 g/kg/day 11. List specific recommendations for carbohydrate intake and gestational diabetes. What is the minimum CHO intake? 130 g-175 g per day depending on the trimester What are general guide for CHO at breakfast? g What percent of calories should come from CHO for gestational diabetes? <45% 12. What is the appropriate weight gain for pregnancy according to pre-pregnancy BMI? Fill in the table below to answer. (Hint: check the IOM pregnancy weight gain brief on Learning Suite). Pre-pregnancy BMI kg/m2 Total Weight gain range lbs Average Rates of Weight Gain (lbs per week) in 2nd and 3rd Trimester Underweight < lbs lbs Normal weight lbs lbs Overweight lbs lbs Obese lbs lbs 13. Locate pregnancy weight gain charts; have charts available for case studies in class. (Hint look in NDFS 405 materials or on Learning Suite) 5

6 14. Describe any consequences with excess wt gain during pregnancy. Macrosomia Gestational Diabetes Preeclampsia Less likely to breastfeed 15. What are general recommendations for exercise during pregnancy? 30 min 3 times per week If active prior to pregnancy then you can exercise more If not active prior to pregnancy, start with 5 minutes per day and add 5 minutes per week until you get up to 30 min Don t do high impact or bouncing things as it can hurt joints. Stop if you are dizzy, short of breath, have heart pain, bleeding, loss of movement by the baby, or contractions. 16. Can blood sugars be controlled with oral hypoglycemic agents in gestational diabetes? Explain Yes, there are 3 oral medications that can be used in gestational diabetes: Glyburide: must sign consent forms to take during pregnancy Sufonylureas: Metformin: Class b. Not recommended unless mom was on metformin before pregnancy. 17. Are women with gestational diabetes at risk for developing diabetes later in life? If yes, how can this risk be reduced? Yes they are. This risk can be reduced by breastfeeding, increasing physical activity, and by eating healthy after the baby is born. Pediatrics 1. Locate pediatric weight gain charts for children 2-20; have charts available for case studies in class. Know how to use and interpret charts. (Hint look in Pediatric NCM) 2.

What is the expected growth velocity for premature infants? <2500 g: g/kg/day g: 10 g/kg/day >3500 g: 7g/kg/day Overall: g/day 3. Why is the dextrose given initially to premature infants? Often premature infants are hypoglycemic. 4. List access types and typical dextrose concentrations for parenteral nutrition in premature infants. Peripheral Intravenous (IV) line: 12.5 g/dl Peripherally inserted central venous catheter: The PNCM says that peripherally inserted central venous catheter allow for greater concentrations of dextrose, but does not specify how much, so I am assuming that the dextrose concentration can be above 12.5 g/dl, but not greater than 20 g/dl. Central venous catheter: g/dl Umbilical artery catheter (UAC) and umbilical venous catheter (UVC): Solutions greater than 12.5 g/dl can be used, but this increases the risk of glucosuria and dehydration. 9

10 5. List at least one multi-vitamin (MVI) dosing option for an infant weighing < 2500 g.
