Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Gain insight into the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of narcotics commonly used for pain management during labor and delivery.
Learn how narcotics can cross the placenta and affect the fetal CNS, leading to respiratory depression and other adverse effects.
Understand the risk factors associated with maternal narcotic use and fetal CNS depression, including maternal dose, timing of administration, and fetal susceptibility.
Practice fetal assessment techniques, including electronic fetal monitoring and fetal heart rate assessment, to detect signs of CNS depression and fetal distress.
Learn to monitor maternal vital signs, respiratory status, and sedation levels following narcotic administration, recognizing signs of maternal overdose or adverse reactions.
