I was admitting Darlene Jenkins, a pregnant, unmarried,14-year-old to the prenatal clinic. This was her first visitand she was already in her third trimester. A quick historyrevealed multiple factors putting both her and her fetus at risk
for health problems: lack of family (or other) support (home-less, occasionally staying with an older girlfriend), father of
the baby unknown, multiple sexual partners, diet consistingmainly of fast food, no prenatal vitamins, little to no exercise,and history of smoking (2 packs of cigarettes per day) andalcohol consumption (“beer 4 to 5 times a week”). When shewas seen by the medical resident, he asked her quite curtly if
she was trying to “kill your baby,” telling her that it was prob-ably too late for her to get the care she needed. “Why should
we waste our time on you when other women here reallywant to be helped?” Although Darlene was acting “tough,” Icould tell from her expression that she was both angry andhurt. While I was upset by the…

- One of your best friends tells you that she and her husband think she might be pregnant. She feels she can wait until shes several months along before finding an obstetrician. You think she could use some medical advice sooner, and you suggest she discuss her plans with a physician as soon as possible. What kinds of health issues might you be concerned about?arrow_forwardAfter hearing this information, should Sue and Tim feel that their chances of having a child with a cleft lip are increased over that of the general population? Sue and Tim were referred for genetic counseling after they inquired about the risk of having a child with a cleft lip. Tim was born with a mild cleft lip that was surgically repaired. He expressed concern that his future children could be at risk for a more severe form of clefting. Sue was in her 12th week of pregnancy, and both were anxious about the pregnancy because Sue had had a difficult time conceiving. The couple stated that they would not consider terminating the pregnancy for any reason but wanted to be prepared for the possibility of having a child with a birth defect. The genetic counselor took a three-generation family history from both Sue and Tim and found that Tim was the only person to have had a cleft lip. Sues family history showed no cases of cleft lip. Tim and Sue had several misconceptions about clefting, and the genetic counselor spent time explaining how cleft lips occur and some of the known causes of this birth defect. The following list summarizes the counselors discussion with the couple. Fathers, as well as mothers, can pass on genes that cause clefting. Some clefts are caused by environmental factors, meaning that the condition didnt come from the father or the mother. One child in 33 is born with some sort of birth defect. One in 700 is born with a cleft-related birth defect. Most clefts occur in boys; however, a girl can be born with a cleft. If a person (male or female) is born with a cleft, the chances of that person having a child with a cleft, given no other obvious factor, is 7 in 100. Some clefts are related to identifiable syndromes. Of those, some are autosomal dominant. A person with an autosomal dominant gene has a 50% probability of passing the gene to an offspring. Many clefts run in families even when there does not seem to be any identifiable syndrome present. Clefting seems to be related to ethnicity, occurring most often among Asians, Latinos, and Native Americans (1 : 500); next most often among persons of European ethnicity (1 : 700); and least often among persons of African origin (1 : 1,000). A cleft condition develops during the fourth to the eighth week of pregnancy. After that critical period, nothing the mother does can cause a cleft. Sometimes a cleft develops even before the mother is aware that she is pregnant. Women who smoke are twice as likely to give birth to a child with a cleft. Women who ingest large quantities of vitamin A or low quantities of folic acid are more likely to have children with a cleft. In about 70% of cases, the fetal face is clearly visible using ultrasound. Facial disorders have been detected at the 15th gestational week of pregnancy. Ultrasound can be precise and reliable in diagnosing fetal craniofacial conditions.arrow_forwardPatty Turner age 7 has symptoms that include a skin rash, fever, slowed growth, fatigue, and swelling in the joints.
