Aim: To analyse the demographic factors and parity in women influencing choice of contraceptive methods. Methods: This is a hospital record based retrospective study at Bhaktapur hospital, a tertiary hospital in a span of 6 months from October 2020 to March 2021. Data were collected from medical record and descriptive analysis was done. Results: There were 142 women taking contraceptive service in six months.Implant was the most commonly used method of contraception (48%), followed by the IUCD (26%), Injectable (16%) and OCP (10%). Age group of 20-39 had more acceptance of contraception as compared to adolescent and women above 40. More the parity more usage of long acting reversible contraception was found. Conclusion: The most common contraceptive method used among women was implant. Client having two or more children are more to receive long acting contraception.

Objective: To identify the characteristics of maternal mortality cases in a tertiary hospital in Jakarta, including socio-demographic characteristics, previous medical and obstetric history, and patient’s clinical condition on arrival at the hospital. Method: This was a survey to identify the descriptive data of maternal mortality cases through medical records during study period. Manual review of 51 medical records was conducted for 2 years from January 2013 to December 2014 in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM). Result: Of 51 cases of maternal deaths, 46 subjects (90.19%) had nine years of minimum education background. There were two subjects less than 21 years old and another was 42 years old. None of these subjects were using intrauterine device (IUD) or implant as the contraceptive methods where 66.6% subjects with underlying disease never used contraception. Ninety-two percent of subjects did antenatal care (ANC) regularly and 80.4% (41 subjects) of them was done in midwives. There were 14 subjects (29.78%) who had ANC in the first trimester of pregnancy. Severe preeclampsia is the most prevalent complication in pregnancy (26 subjects, 65%), which all (100%) patients arrived at RSCM with HELLP Syndrome. Therefore, preeclampsia was the leading cause of death in RSCM. Conclusion: The characteristics of maternal death in RSCM are prevalent in the group of 25-34 years old with the high school as the educational background. Most of them are multiparity and do not use the long-term contraceptive methods. Preeclampsia is the major cause of maternal death in RSCM.

SummaryThe risk of thromboembolic events (TE) is increased by acquired or inherited thrombo -philias (IT). We know that some hormonal contraceptives also increase the risk of thrombosis, thus, the use of such contraceptives are discussed as contraindications in women with IT. TEs are infrequent events in children and adolescents and in the majority of cases are associated with secondary complications from underlying chronic illness. Although adolescents are not typically considered to be at high-risk for TE, this cohort is frequently using hormonal contraception, leading to an increased risk in cases with unknown IT. The risk of TE with pregnancy alone is higher than associated with combined hormonal contra -ception. Progestin-only methods have not been found to increase the risk of TE with only moderate changes of coagulation proteins compared to normal reference values. Conclusion: Thrombophilic women are good candidates for progestin-only contraceptive methods.

Recently non-fermenting Gram negative rods (NFGNR) are playing an important role in healthcare associated infections. This observational study in a tertiary care hospital of Dhaka city conducted during 01August 2007 to 30 June 2013 found that 34.8% isolated organisms from patients with healthcare associated infections were NFGNR. Majority (74.3 %) of these infections were occurring inside critical care areas. Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter together constituted 79.6% of the total NFGNR whereas Burkholderia cephacia complex (15.4%), Stenotrophomonas (4.3%) and Chryseobacterium species (0.7%) combined constituted remaining 20.4%. Out of total NFGNRs, Pseudomonas was responsible for highest number of catheter associated urinary tract infections (55.6%), ventilator associated pneumonia (46.3%), respiratory tract infection (65.8%) and surgical site infection (70.6%). Blood stream infection was predominantly caused by Burkholderia cephacia complex (33.5%) and Acinetobacter spp. (39.5%). Other than colistin most of the organisms were resistant to antibiotics commonly recommended for NFGNR.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjmm.v7i2.19326 Bangladesh J Med Microbiol 2013; 07(02): 6-12
