Indications: G7, P5-0-1-5 at 36 and 0/7th weeks, gestation induced for the above
with initiation of Pitocin. There were 3 consecutive variable decelerations leading
to the decision to administer an amnioinfusion with full recovery with the category
1 fetal heart sounds in the presence of the primary _____ (word missing in record)
care provider, Dr. Xxxxx. Several minutes later, audible deceleration with recovery
and then inability to appreciate fetal heart tones after many efforts as documented
in the chart.
A sterile vaginal exam was performed with brow presentation, unable to place fetal
scalp electrode. An ultrasound revealed inappropriately slow fetal heart motion
with cervical exam of 3 cm dilation, 50% effacement, -l station, remote from
delivery. Decision was made to proceed emergency cesarean delivery due to fetal
bradycardia.
Findings: Viable female infant in cephalic presentation, clear amniotic fluid, very
thin cord, 1480 g, APGARS 3, 6, and 9 at 1, 5 and 10 minutes respectively.
Pediatrics were present at the delivery due to above. Resuscitative measures
included chest compressions and PPV. Initial efforts to intubate were stopped after
baby released to cry.
Normal uterus and bilateral ovaries and tubes. Uterine atony without postpartum
hemorrhage likely due to grand multiparity status resolved with uterine massage,
30 units of Pitocin and 1 liter of normal saline and 20 units Pitocin administered to
the myometrium directly.
We avoided Hemabate due to history of bronchitis and we avoided Methergine
brief hypertensive period _____ (word missing in record) at the time of uterine
atony. Uterus responded well becoming firm and globular. Please also note that the
cord arterial gases were 6.77 with a base excess of 17.
Description of procedure: The patient was taken to the operating room after
obtaining verbal consent. The patient was then draped and prepped for a sterile
procedure. In an emergent situation, we did a splash of Betadine. General
endotracheal intubation was initiated and the scalpel was then used to make a
Pfannenstiel incision directly from the skin to the fascia. The fascia was then
nicked to the midline and opened in one sweep.
Using the operator’s hand, the fascia was then separated from the rectus muscles.
The rectus muscles were then separated digitally and the peritoneum was then
entered bluntly with the operator’s hand. The bladder blade was then inserted. The
lower uterine segment was then identified. The operator ensured that the bowel and
bladder were then clear from the operator site. The scalpel was then used to make a
transverse incision in the lower uterine segment.
The operator hands were then used to enter the uterine cavity with the fingers and
the uterine incision was then extended in the craniocaudal fashion. The infant’s
head was them identified and then delivered. The remainder of the infant s body
was then delivered. The cord was then clamped and cut and the infant was handed
off to the awaiting pediatric team. Cord gases were then obtained.

The uterus was then exteriorized and the placenta was then delivered manually.
The uterine incision was then repaired in a running locking fashion using a 1
Vicryl suture. There was an area of oozing noted in the left one-third lateral area of
the hysterotomy. A 1 Vicryl suture was placed in a figure of fashion to obtain
excellent hemostasis.
The entire incision was then inspected and again excellent hemostasis was
obtained. The uterus was then replaced into the uterine cavity. Bilateral gutters
were then cleared of clots and debris. Again, the uterine incision was then
inspected and found to be hemostasis. The bladder blade was then removed and the
inspection of the superior and inferior aspects of the fascia as well as the
peritoneum and muscles were then evaluated and there was no evidence of any
bleeding.
The fascia was then repaired in a continuous fashion using a 1 Vicryl suture. The
subcutaneous layer was then re-approximated in a continuous fashion using a 2-0
plain gut. The skin was then re-approximated in a subcuticular fashion using 4-0
undyed Vicryl. Pressure dressing was then applied. Radiology was then entered
into the OR to obtain a plain film due to the inability to perform a sponge count
due to the urgent nature of the procedure.

The patient tolerated the procedure well. Again, due to the emergent nature of the
procedure 2 g of Ancef were given during the procedure. The patient was then
taken to recovery room in a stable and satisfactory condition.

* Reviewer’s Comment: Medical records from 01/09/YYYY to 05/20/YYYY are not
available or review to know the condition of patient.
Development therapy record:
Reason for referral: This referral was made due to concerns with patient’s overall
development secondary to prematurity. Patient’s parents were referred to Early
Intervention by XYZ Hospital.
Family concerns: Parents expressed concern about patient’s overall development.
Specific concerns include growth and a preference to rotate her head toward her
left shoulder.
Medical history:
Mother’s pregnancy with patient was without complication until seven months.
She then began to experience significant pain and what felt like contractions. She
was told by her doctor that this is common for women who have had multiple
pregnancies. An ultrasound at eight months showed low levels of amniotic fluid
and a heart rate was not detected.
Patient was then delivered at ABC via emergency cesarean section. She was 36
weeks gestational age and she weighed three pounds, five ounces. She was not
breathing upon delivery and her heart rate was 30 BPM. She was resuscitated and
intubated. She was admitted to the NICU for 20 days. Initially she was given IV
feedings. Feedings were then administered via NG-tube. She was on oral feeds by
the time she was discharged. She was treated for jaundice.
Patient passed her newborn hearing screening. Patient did not pass the initial
screening for galactosemia. Testing has been repeated two-three more times, with
results indicating she has “borderline galactosemia”. Parents were not aware of the
results of the final testing or the possible diagnosis. They were strongly
encouraged to follow up with Fatima’s pediatrician about this, as there are
significant dietary restrictions for people with galactosemia.
Additional concerns related to feeding include a history of constipation, symptoms
of reflux, and growth. She weighed approximately seven pounds at three months of
age (adjusted). Her parents report that she is a slow eater and that her belly appears
swollen after she eats. These concerns should also be raised with patient’s
pediatrician.
Fatima is frequently congested. Her parents have used saline drops to address this
and they have not seen a difference. She had an appointment at XYZ Hospital. It
appears that this was a NICU follow-up clinic. At that time, she was referred to
Early Intervention due to concerns about possible torticollis. His vision was
assessed and found to be within normal limits.

contact patient’s pediatrician to discuss her possible diagnosis of “borderline
galactosemia”, history of constipation, symptoms of reflux, growth rate, lengthy
feedings, formula intake, and distended belly after feedings. It is strongly advised
that patient’s medical records be translated into Arabic, so that her medical
information/history is fully understood by family members.

Clinical narrative of developmental domains evaluated:
Range Of Motion (ROM)/Orthopedic
Patient has full range of motion throughout her upper and lower extremities. She
has full cervical rotation and lateral flexion. However, she does have increased
redness in her neck on the left side of her neck. She has flatness on the right
posterior aspect of her skull. Her right cheek is slightly larger than her left. There
are no other facial asymmetries present.
Concerns: Patient displays mild asymmetries in her skull and face. Continue to
monitor this as she begins to spend more time off of her head and in other
positions.
Posture:
On her stomach, she will prop on her elbows. Patient will hold her head up for
several seconds at a time before putting it down to rest. She will then lift her head
up again. On her back, she will bring his hands together. She will randomly kick
her legs and move her arms. In supported sitting, she can hold her head off her
chest and rotate it side to side. She will put some weight through her legs in
supported standing.
Concerns: Patient prefers to look to the right in all positions with her head slightly
tilted to the left. She can briefly hold her head in midline. She struggles to hold her

head in midline in all positions. Also on her stomach, she does not hold her head
up for more than a couple seconds at a time and does not yet attempt to push up
onto extended arms.
Muscle tone/primative reflexes:
Muscle tone is defined as a muscle’s readiness to fire. Patient displays muscle tone
within normal limits. She has no atypical muscle synergies. She has a positive
walking reflex. Her asymmetric neck reflex (ATNR) has been integrated. She does
not yet have a Landau response. She has a positive Babinski reflex. She has
positive plantar and palmar reflexes.
Concerns: None at this time.
Strength/gross motor skills:
Patient will track in all directions on her back. She has a more difficult time with
rotation to the left, but can do it. She will bring her hands together. She is also
starting to reach for toys. However, it takes her several seconds before reaching on
her back. She will randomly kick on her legs. She is not yet grabbing her feet or
knees. She will bring her hands together and to her mouth. She is able to roll to her
side in both directions.
Patient tolerated being on her stomach. She will prop on her elbows and hold her
head up for one to two seconds at a time. She is not yet pushing up onto extended
arms or reaching on her stomach. Fatima will sit with maximum support and hold
her head up. She is not yet reaching in sitting. In supported standing, she will put
some weight through her legs.
Concerns: Patient displays decreased strength based on her gross motor skills. She
is starting to hold her head up for brief periods of time and she is not yet pushing
up onto extended arms. She is starting to reach on her back but it is delayed.
Further assessments recommended:
 Nutrition evaluation secondary to concerns with possible allergies and
weight gain.
 Social work evaluation secondary to the family needing assistance with
medical appointments and needs.

Occupational Therapy (OT) initial evaluation:
Reason for referral: Patient was referred for an OT evaluation through Early
Intervention by her parents due to concerns with her development. This OT
evaluation is part of a global evaluation with developmental, physical, and ST to
determine eligibility for services through Early Intervention.
Medical history:
History reviewed. Patient’s general health has been good with no hospitalizations,
major illnesses or injuries. Her parents stated that she has always been congested
and that they tried saline drops but that it did not make a difference. She has no
known allergies and takes no medications. She has had no ear infections to date.
She is given a bottle 5 times daily with 3 oz. per bottle. Her mother noted that
when she has formula her stomach becomes slightly distended and that she is slow
to drink a bottle, usually taking 30 minutes to drink 3 oz. She is often constipated.
She is small for her age, weighing just over 7 lbs. at her last check-up. She is not
meeting the motor milestone of rolling yet.
Behavioral observation:
Patient is a sweet baby who is engaged in her surroundings and enjoys social
interactions. She tolerated handling well by the therapists. She demonstrates a
healthy attachment to her mother and smiled at the therapists occasionally during
the evaluation. She shows interest in toys presented but appeared to fatigue fairly
quickly in reaching and when placed on her tummy. Her parents report she is not
laughing much yet but that she is a good natured baby.
Tests conducted:
This evaluation was completed using the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales
(PDMS-2), in a non-standardized manner. The PDMS-2 is a formal, standardized
assessment tool designed to evaluate motor abilities in children. Of the six
subtests, the Grasp and Visual Motor Subtests were used to assess fine motor
skills.

Fine motor:
Patient presents with flatness to the right side of her head but no tightness in her
neck. In sitting, she holds her hands to her sides with indwelling thumb on the left
hand and right thumb out. When placed on her tummy, she is able to push upward
with her hands for a brief period. She is able to bring her hands to midline for
exploration and partially extend her arms in reaching for a toy presented to her at
midline.
She is able to hold a rattle placed in her hand for greater than 30 seconds and bring
it to her mouth. She is able to track a ball in sitting beyond midline and track a ball
or rattle to each side well. She is able to finger her hands together and bring them
to her mouth.
Concerns: Patient is not yet strong enough to straighten her arms to reach for a toy
when lying on her back and when given a rattle, is not yet able to move the rattle
more than 2 to 4 degrees. In sitting, she will reach for a rattle and touch it but is not
yet grasping the toy.
Activities of Daily Living (ADL’s): Patient is drinking approximately 15 ounces
of milk daily. She demonstrated a weak seal on the bottle nipple though and takes
up to 30 minutes or longer to finish a bottle. She is able to sleep through the night
from 0100 hours to 0600 hours. She usually wakes then for a feeding and sleeps 3
more hours before waking again. She naps throughout the day. Bath time is
enjoyable to patient and she is not resistive to having her diaper changed.
Sensory processing: Patient does not present with difficulties in sensory
processing in tactile, vestibular, proprioceptive or auditory at this time. As her
strength increases, sensory processing should be monitored.
Implications: Patient’s scores in fine motor grasp are impacted by her reduced
strength. Occupational therapy is recommended to help her build strength and
begin exploring toys and she surroundings more.

6 month follow-up psychological assessment:
Service Coordinator Faith Schwartz requested this six month review as part of
Patient’s IFSP. Originally, patient was referred to the Early Intervention Program
by Lurie’s Children’s Hospital due to prematurity, overall development and
medical concerns. Her parents were initially concerned about her eating challenges
and her rate of growth.
At the time of social work referral, the family was hoping patient would qualify for
SSI benefits. Although benefits have not been applied for, it is unlikely that Fatima
would qualify given no medical diagnosis. The family is awaiting receipt of
medical summaries to ensure they have the support from her medical team before
formally applying for SSI.
Patient had been off of milk products since mid-July and was only given soy based
formula. Although galactosemia was initially suspected, blood work does not
support the diagnosis. Per parent report, her reflux and constipation have since
resolved. Frequent diarrhea was reported 2-3 months ago but has since resolved as
well. Milk products have been recently introduced into her diet. She has also been
introduced to a variety of baby foods and cereals and she seems to be tolerating
them well.
Patient is an alert and happy infant. She can follow one simple command without
physical prompts. She is able to find a small toy after it is completely hidden under
a blanket or cloth. She has recently been able to hold her bottle to feed herself with
both hands. She knows what “no” means and reacts. She moves to rhythms and
imitates several new gestures.
She engages in simple relational play. When an adult holds out a hand and asks her
for a toy, she will offer it to the adult although she may or may not let go of it. She
shows like/dislike for certain people, objects and places. She recognizes several
people in addition to her immediate family.
Patient has enjoyed good health aside from a few common colds. Her parents voice
concern about frequent congestion and have been advised to bring their concerns to
the attention of her pediatrician. She has had several doctor appointments since
birth and mother has followed through on most recommended medical
appointments.
Patient is to follow up with neonatal services in February YYYY. She is likely to
be discharged from neonatal services based on her progress. She is seen by her
