1. In fetal circulation, three shunts (ductus venosus, foramen ovale, ductus arteriosus) redirect blood away from the underdeveloped lungs and liver. The placenta provides gas/nutrient exchange.
2. At birth, cutting the umbilical cord closes the placental circulation. The shunts then close as well - the ductus arteriosus and foramen ovale close due to pressure changes upon lung inflation, while the ductus venosus obliterates.
3. Normal postnatal circulation is established with gas exchange in the lungs and nutrient processing by the liver. The umbilical vessels become ligaments.
A serious pregnancy complication in which the placenta detaches from the womb (uterus).
Placental abruption occurs when the placenta detaches from the inner wall of the womb before delivery. The condition can deprive the baby of oxygen and nutrients.
Symptoms include vaginal bleeding, stomach pain and back pain in the last 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Depending on the degree of placental separation and how close the baby is to full-term, treatment may include bed rest or a Caesarean (C-section).

Fetal Circulation by Barkha Devi,Lecturer,Sikkim Manipal College of NursingBarkha Devi
This PowerPoint will provide you a short a sweet lecture about fetal circulation. Please give me your feed back .
-Discuss anatomy and physiology of fetal circulation
-Compare and contrast fetal circulation to infant circulation
-Define specialized structures of fetal circulation
Describe the normal fetal circulation and mention the changes that occur in it is placental stage and after birth. Fetal circulation is composed of placenta, umbilical cord, heart and systemic blood vessels.
A major difference between the fetal circulation and postnatal circulation is that the lungs are not used during the fetal stage resulting in the presence of shunts to move oxygenated blood and nutrients from the placenta to the fetal tissue.
At birth, the start of breathing and the severance of the umbilical cord prompt various changes that quickly transform fetal circulation into postnatal circulation.
When the embryo develops into the fetus, it creates a functional cardiovascular system that cooperates with the mother's system.
During birth, there are functional physiological changes that transform the shared system into an individual one for the fetus.
In the fetus main filtration site for plasma nutrients and wastes in the placenta, which is outside of the body cavity.
In adults, the circulation occurs entirely inside the body.
The blood that flow to through the fetus is actually more complicated than after the baby is born (normal heart).
This is because the mother (the placenta) is doing the work that the baby's lungs will do after birth.
The placenta accepts the blood without oxygen from the fetus through blood vessels that leave the fetus through the umbilical cord (Umbilical arteries , there are two of them).
When blood goes through the placenta it pick up oxygwn.
The oxygen rich blood then returns to the fetus via the third vessels in the umbilical cord (Umbilical vein).
The oxygen rich blood that enters the fetus passes through the fetal liver and enters the right side of the heart.
The oxygen rich blood goes through one of the two extra connections in the fetal heart that will close after the baby is born.
The hole between the top two heart chmbers (right and left atrium) is called "Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO).
This hole allows the oxygen rich blood to go form the right atrium to left atrium and then to the left ventricle and out the aorta.
As a result the blood with the most oxygen gets to the brain.
Blood coming back from the fetus's body also enters the right atrium, but the fetus is able to send this oxygen poor blood from the right atrium to the right ventricle (the chamber that normally pumps blood to the lungs).
most of the blood that leaves the right ventricle in the fetus bypass the lungs through the second of the extra fetal connections known as the ductus arteriosus.
The ductus arteriosus sends the oxygen poor blood to the organs in the lower half of the fetal body. This also allows for the oxygen poor blood to leave the fetus through the umbilical arteries and get back to the placenta to pick up oxygen.
Since the patent foramen ovale and ductus arteriosus are normal findings in the fetus, it is impossible to predict whether or not these connections will close normally after birth in a normal fetal heart.
Embark on a captivating exploration of #FetalCirculation in this presentation. Delve into the intricacies of the developing cardiovascular system, understanding how the fetus receives oxygen and nutrients for optimal growth within the womb. Uncover the role of critical structures such as the ductus venosus and foramen ovale in facilitating unique circulatory patterns. Gain insights into the transition from fetal to neonatal circulation and its crucial significance for newborns. This presentation provides a comprehensive overview of the physiological marvel that sustains life before the first breath.
Blood from the placenta is carried to the fetus by the umbilical vein. In humans, less than a third of this enters the fetal ductus venosus and is carried to the inferior vena cava, while the rest enters the liver proper from the inferior border of the liver. The branch of the umbilical vein that supplies the right lobe of the liver first joins with the portal vein. The blood then moves to the right atrium of the heart. In the fetus, there is an opening between the right and left atrium (the foramen ovale), and most of the blood flows through this hole directly into the left atrium from the right atrium, thus bypassing pulmonary circulation. The continuation of this blood flow is into the left ventricle, and from there it is pumped through the aorta into the body. Some of the blood moves from the aorta through the internal iliac arteries to the umbilical arteries, and re-enters the placenta, where carbon dioxide and other waste products from the fetus are taken up and enter the maternal circulation.
USMLE CVS 008 Fetal and regional circulation anatomy .pdfAHMED ASHOUR
Fetal circulation and regional circulation refer to the distinct patterns of blood flow in the developing fetus and the circulatory pathways within different regions of the body.
Understanding these circulation patterns is crucial for comprehending the physiological adaptations that occur during fetal development and in the various regions of the body after birth.
After birth, the circulatory system undergoes significant changes, such as closure of the foramen ovale and ductus arteriosus, leading to the establishment of the adult circulatory pattern.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. 1. What is the oxygenation status of the blood in
the umbilical arteries? In the umbilical vein?
2. What are the three fetal shunts? What vessels
or heart chambers do they connect? What
organ does each shunt bypass?
3. What changes do you expect at birth?
Objectives:
3.
4. Introduction
• During pregnancy, the fetal circulatory system
works differently than after birth.
• The fetus is connected by the umbilical cord to
the placenta. This is the organ that develops
and implants in the mother's uterus during
pregnancy.
• Through the blood vessels in the umbilical
cord, the fetus gets all needed nutrition and
get rid of waste products.
5. Key differences between fetal and
adult circulation
• The lungs and liver both do not serve significant
functions prior to birth.
• Gas exchange occur at the placenta.
• Detoxification and metabolism are primarily
controlled by the mother’s liver, and nutrient and
waste exchange occurs at the placenta, as well.
• Notably, these two organs are both
underdeveloped so the developing child’s body
constructs three shunts to actively direct blood
away from these organs
6.
7. • Fetal circulation consequently differs from the
adult one predominantly due to the presence of
3 major vascular shunts:
• Ductus venosus - in the liver between the
umbilical vein and IVC
• Foramen ovale - in the heart between the right
and left atrium
• Ductus arteriosus - in the aortic arch between
the pulmonary artery and descending aorta
8. • The main function of these shunts is
to redirect oxygenated blood away
from the lungs, liver and kidney.
9.
10. Foramen Ovale
• There is a direct connection between the right
and left atria , blood from the right atrium flows
directly into the left via the foramen ovale and
thus goes around the pulmonary circulation
system. This shunt allows a normal
development of the left atrium and the left
ventricle in that the cardiac musculature on this
side is trained.
11.
12. Ductus arteriosus
• The right ventricle could also not develop
correctly when no blood would flow via the
right side. Thus in fetal hearts blood also flows
in small amounts from the right atrium via
the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle but,
going through the truncus pulmonalis it takes
a shortcut into the aorta via the ductus
arteriosus.
13.
14. • Oxygenated blood is carried from the placenta
to the foetus in the umbilical vein, most of
which then passes through the ductus venosus
to the IVC while some blood supplies the liver
via the portal vein.
15. • The blood from the
placenta that has been
enriched with oxygen
and nutrients gets via
the umbilical vein to the
liver, part flows through
it and part bypasses it via
the ductus venosus and
gets via the v. cava
inferior into the right
atrium.
16. • Blood from the liver
drains into the IVC
through the hepatic
veins.
• The blood in the IVC
is a mixture of
oxygenated blood
from the umbilical
vein and desaturated
blood from the lower
limbs and abdominal
organs (e.g. the liver).
17. • This blood enters the right atrium where
most of it is directed to the left atrium
through the foramen ovale and from here
to the left ventricle and aorta.
18.
19. After birth
With birth, a change from parallel flow
through the heart to a serial one gradually
takes place. The following changes must
occur:
• The gas exchange takes place in the baby's
lungs.
• By cutting the umbilical cord, the placental
circulation system is switched off.
• The fetal heart shunts become closed
20. • On the other hand, with the cutting of the
umbilical cord following birth, the placental
low resistance area also disappears and the
peripheral resistance increases in the systemic
circulation.
21.
22. • With the activation of breathing the lungs
becomes distended, the capillary network
dilated and their resistance is reduced
drastically so that a rich flow of blood can take
place. As a consequence, the pressure in the
right atrium sinks in comparison with that of
the left one.
23. • This pressure turn around in the atria causes
the septum primum to be pressed against the
septum secundum and the foramen
secundum becomes functionally closed.
Towards the end of the first year, it has also
grown together in 99% of the babies --> The
shunt between the left and right atrium is
closed.
24.
25. • The pressure in the aorta is now higher than
that in the truncus pulmonalis and the right-
left shunt via the ductus arteriosus that is
present before birth is turned around into
being a left-right shunt. The pO2 pressure in
the aorta increases since the blood is now
oxygenated directly in the baby's lungs.
26. • This increase in pO2 triggers a contraction of
the smooth musculature in the wall of the
ductus arteriosus and thereby to a functional
seal.
After a few weeks or months this shunt via
the ductus arteriosus is definitively
obliterated and the remnant is known as
the ligamentum arteriosus.
27. Fetal remnants
• The severing of the baby's umbilical cord leads to
the obliteration of the umbilical vessels, primarily
through active constriction of their muscular
layer. Only the proximal part of the umbilical
arteries stays open as the superior vesical artery.
• The distal part forms the medial umbilical
ligament on both sides in the anterior abdominal
wall. The umbilical vein transforms itself into
the ligamentum teres hepatis.
