Objective. The purpose of this study was to explore the underlying clinical factors associated with the degree of retinal hemorrhage (RH) in full-term newborns. Methods. A total of 3054 full-term infants were included in this study. Eye examinations were performed with RetCamIII within one week of birth for all infants. Maternal, obstetric, and neonatal parameters were compared between newborns with RH and controls. The RH group was divided into three sections (I, II, and III) based on the degree of RH. Results. RH was observed in 1202 of 3054 infants (39.36%) in this study. The quantity and proportion of newborns in groups I, II, and III were 408 (13.36%), 610 (19.97%), and 184 (6.03%), respectively. Spontaneous vaginal delivery (SVD), prolonged duration of second stage of labor, advanced maternal age, and neonatal intracranial hemorrhage positively correlated with aggravation of the degree of RH in newborns. Conversely, cesarean section was protective against the incidence of RH. Conclusions. SVD, prolonged duration of second stage of labor, advanced maternal age, and neonatal intracranial hemorrhage were potential risk factors for aggravation of the degree of RH in full-term infants. Accordingly, infants with these risk factors may require greater attention with respect to RH development.

Abstract Purpose: Relaparotomy following cesarean delivery (CD) is performed at a rate of 0.2-1% of CD. The objective of the present study was to identify risk factors for relaparotomy following CD, and to examine whether there is a difference in the risk of relaparotomy between CD performed during different daytimes. Methods: A retrospective study including all CD over ten years. Cases that underwent laparotomy within one week following CD were compared to those that did not. CDs for placenta accreta were excluded.Results: Sixty-four patients underwent relaparotomy following CD. In univariate analysis relaparotomy was significantly higher pregnancies following assisted-reproductive technologies (39.1%vs. 16.9%), hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (18.8%vs. 7%), twin pregnancies (29.7%vs. 10%), preterm deliveries (34.4%vs. 17.6%), low birthweight (2815gr vs. 3047gr), placenta previa (7.8% vs. 1.3%) low body mass index (22.4 vs. 24.5) and urgent CD (54.7% vs. 40.8%), especially during the second stage of labor. In a multivariate regression analysis, the adjusted odds ratio for relaparotomy was 10.24 in CD due to placenta previa, and 5.28 in CD performed at the second stage of delivery.At relaparotomy, active bleeding was found in 50 patients (78.1%), nearly half received packed cells, 12.5% developed consumptive coagulopathy, and 17.2% needed hospitalization in the intensive care unit. 6.3% underwent a second relaparotomy, mainly due to bleeding.Conclusion: Hypertensive disease, placenta previa, and urgent CDs mainly those performed at the second stage of labor are risk factors for relaparotomy after CD.

Elective Induction

Background: This study aims at identifying the association between inductions of labor in nullipara and multipara to caesarean delivery and other associated maternal and neonatal outcomes.Methods: The study subjects were divided into two groups, elective induction group and spontaneous labor group. They were matched for maternal age, parity and gestational age. Duration of first and second stage of labor, mode of delivery, if caesarean section, indication for caesarean section and its relation to Bishop score, maternal age, birth weight was analyzed. Maternal intrapartum and post-partum complications and fetal outcome were also analyzed.Results: Out of the 400 women in the study, 200 were induced and 200 were those who went into spontaneous labor. The rate of cesarean section rate among induced group is 31% and was statistically significant. But the analysis of the same after excluding risk factors like nulliparity, Bishop score <5 and birth weight >3.5 kg it was found that the rate of cesarean section is 37.1%, but was statistically not significant when compared to the spontaneous group.There was significant decrease in the duration of second stage of labor in the induced primipara group with p value of 0.038. There was no significant difference in the maternal and neonatal complications.Conclusions: This study concludes that elective induction in carefully selected low risk population, excluding the above-mentioned risk factors does not pose any increased risk of cesarean section. Elective induction does not cause any increased risk to mother and fetus.

Objective Our aim was to estimate the incidence of unintentional hysterotomy extension at the time of cesarean delivery and to identify associated risk factors and maternal morbidity. Study Design We conducted a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial evaluating chlorhexidine-alcohol versus iodine-alcohol for skin antisepsis in women undergoing cesarean delivery. We included patients with a low transverse hysterotomy. The primary outcome was the incidence of unintentional hysterotomy extension. Logistic regression was performed to identify independent factors associated with hysterotomy extension. Maternal morbidity was compared between patients with and without extension. Results Of 1,038 patients meeting the inclusion criteria, 71 (6.8%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.4–8.5%) experienced a hysterotomy extension. Of several potential risk factors assessed, the second stage of labor was the only independent predictor of hysterotomy extension (adjusted odds ratio: 10.2; 95% CI: 2.6–39.8). Hysterotomy extension was associated with increased operative time (73 vs. 55.3 minutes; p< 0.01), need for blood transfusion (relative risk: 5; 95% CI: 1.6–15.2), and rate of additional surgical injury (RR: 17; 95% CI: 6.9–41.8). Conclusion Hysterotomy extensions are not infrequent at the time of cesarean delivery and are associated with increased maternal morbidity. Cesarean delivery during the second stage of labor is the main independent risk factor for hysterotomy extension.
