OBSTETRICS
At Ali`i Health Center, our physicians work together to help you during this very special time in your life. The physicians are skilled in vaginal and cesarean deliveries, as well as high-risk pregnancies. We combine modern medical techniques with a personal touch to ensure the safe delivery of healthy babies. During pregnancy, the health of the mother and baby are monitored at regular intervals. The physicians place a strong emphasis on prevention and early detection of complications. Care of high-risk pregnancies are coordinated with Maternal Fetal Medicine programs to ensure the best care for our patients.

3D & 4D ULTRASONOGRAPHY
We offer State of the Art ultrasounds for your obstetrical and gynecological needs. We offer on-site gynecological ultrasound exams, as well as diagnostic ultrasounds at your initial OB visit and again at 18-20 weeks gestation. These ultrasounds are covered in the standard OB care. *OB ultrasound fee packages are also available to “Take a Peek” ($75.00). You will be able to watch, in two-dimensional ultrasound, your baby move their arms, legs and body. You will also be able to get a peek at your baby’s gender, if they are not being shy, and you will get a picture of your baby to cherish. This can be done at any gestational age. Gender determination is best done after 15 weeks. Take a Peek is a non-covered service and will require payment at the time of service.

IN OFFICE NON-STRESS TEST
The Fetal Non-Stress test is a simple, non-invasive test performed in some high risk pregnancies in the third trimester. The test is named “non-stress” because no stress is placed on the fetus during the test. The test involves attaching one belt to the mother’s abdomen to measure fetal heart rate and another belt to measure contractions. Movement, heart rate and “reactivity” of heart rate to movement is measured for 20-30 minutes. If the baby does not move, it does not necessarily indicate that there is a problem; the baby could just be asleep. A nurse may use a small “buzzer” to wake the baby for the remainder of the test.

AMNIOTIC FLUID INDEX (AFI)
AFI is the score (expressed in cm) given to the amount of amniotic fluid seen on ultrasonography (aka ultrasound) of a pregnant uterus.
