Objective We aimed to evaluate which patient-level factors influence mode of delivery among candidates for operative vaginal delivery. Study Design Cross-sectional study of candidates for operative vaginal delivery from 18 hospitals over 8 years. Probabilities of mode of delivery were estimated using hierarchical logistic modeling adjusting for clustering within physician and hospital. Results Total 3,771 (64%) women delivered with forceps, 1,474 (25%) vacuums, and 665 (11%) cesareans. Odds of forceps versus vacuum were higher with induction (OR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.76–2.65), nulliparity (OR = 2.06, 95% CI: 1.59–2.66), epidural (OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.19–3.56), maternal indication (OR = 1.53, 95% CI 1.16–2.02), older maternal age (OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.06–1.31 per 5 years), and longer second stage (OR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.01–1.20 per hour).Odds of cesarean versus operative vaginal delivery were higher with maternal indication (OR = 9.0, 95% CI: 7.23–11.20), a perinatologist (OR = 2.51, 95% CI: 1.09–5.78), longer second stage (OR = 1.79, 95% CI: 1.65–1.93 per hour), older gestational age (OR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.01–1.20 per week), and longer labor (OR = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.01–1.04 per hour). Conclusion Patient-level factors influence the decision to proceed with an operative vaginal delivery and the choice of instrument, thereby emphasizing the importance of maintaining availability of both forceps and vacuums.

Background/Aim. To evaluate the obstetrics and gynaecology residents' perspective of their training and experience in the management of perineal tears that occur during assisted vaginal delivery. We hypothesised that residents would perceive room for improvement in their knowledge of pelvic floor anatomy and the training received in tears repair.Design. Descriptive cross-sectional study.Population/Setting. Seventy-two major residents from all teaching hospitals in Catalonia.Methods. A questionnaire was designed to evaluate experience, perception of the training and supervision provided.Results. The questionnaire was sent to all residents (), receiving 46 responses (64%). The participants represented 15 out of the 16 teaching hospitals included in the study (94% of the hospitals represented). Approximately, 52% of residents were in their third year while 48% were in their fourth. The majority of them thought that their knowledge of pelvic floor anatomy was poor (62%), although 98% felt confident that they would know when an episiotomy was correctly indicated. The survey found that they lacked experience in the repair of major degree tears (70% had repaired fewer than ten), and most did not carry out followup procedures.Conclusion. The majority of them indicated that more training in this specific area is necessary (98%).

Background: Postpartum dyspareunia affects many women following childbirth: however, the extent of the problem is difficult to estimate. The objectives of the current study were to determine the prevalence of postpartum dyspareunia and to estimate its risk factors.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted at the National Ribat University Hospital, Sudan. The study was carried out on women attended the refer clinics of obstetrics and gynecology and pediatrics departments in the hospital. The sample size was calculated as 380. The data were collected by a pre-tested questionnaire along with a clinical examination of the vulva and vagina after obtaining the ethical approval. The SPSS was used to analyze the data.Results: The prevalence of postpartum dyspareunia in women attended the National Ribat University hospital was 42.6 %. Regarding age, 8 (61.5%) of women less than 20 years of age experienced dyspareunia, 102 (46.4%) and 52 (35.4%) of women whose age was 20-29 years; and more than 29 years experienced the condition. One hundred forty (51.7%) of women who delivered by normal vaginal delivery developed postpartum dyspareunia. Eight (72.7%), 8 (12.5%) and 6 (17.6%) of women delivered by Operative vaginal, Elective C/S and Emergency C/S developed postpartum dyspareunia respectively. One hundred forty-eight (62.4%), 153 (51.3%) women who had decircumcision and episiotomy in last delivery had postpartum dyspareunia respectively. Forty-six (93.3%), fifty-three (86.9%) and 60 (87%) women who had infected episiotomy, scar tissue at episiotomy and tight interoitus developed the condition respectively.Conclusions: The prevalence of postpartum dyspareunia in women attended the National Ribat University hospital was 42.6 %. Regarding age, 8 (61.5%) of women less than 20 years of age experienced dyspareunia, 102 (46.4%) and 52 (35.4%) of women whose age was 20-29 years; and more than 29 years experienced the condition.

AbstrakPada masa sekarang ini telah terjadi perubahan tren dalam persalinan, yaitu berupa peningkatan angka seksio sesarea. Peningkatan ini dipengaruhi berbagai faktor seperti: adanya kekhawatiran akan terjadinya cedera janin, peningkatan permintaan ibu untuk melakukan persalinan seksio sesarea, serta faktor sosioekonomi. Beberapa penelitian justru menunjukkan seksio sesarea dapat menimbulkan morbiditas pada bayi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membandingkan kondisi bayi antara persalinan normal dan seksio sesarea elektif dilihat dari nilai Apgar Penelitian dilaksanakan dari Mei 2014 sampai Januari 2014 di bagian rekam medis RSUP Dr. M. Djamil Padang.. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah analitik dengan desain cross-sectional study. Sampel dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari 179  pasien dengan persalinan normal dan 56 pasien dengan seksio sesarea. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada menit pertama nilai Apgar 4-6 adalah 3,4% pada persalinan normal. Nilai Apgar 7-10 sebanyak 96,6% pada persalinan normal dan 100% pada seksio sesarea pada menit pertama. Pada menit kelima, nilai Apgar 4-6 adalah 1,1% pada persalinan normal, sedangkan nilai Apgar 7-10 sebanyak 98,9% pada persalinan normal dan 100% pada seksio sesarea pada menit kelima. Setelah dilakukan analisis dengan mann-whitney test didapatkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan nilai Apgar pada menit-1 (p=0,777) dan menit-5 (p=0,887) antara persalinan normal dengan seksio sesarea.Kata kunci: persalinan normal, seksio sesarea elektif, nilai Apgar AbstractIn recent years, cesarean section have increased. Several factor are contributing, such as fears of injury to the fetus, increased women's request to do a cesarean section deliveries and socioeconomic factors. Some studies have also shown that cesarean section can lead to morbidity in infants. The objective of this study was to compare between Apgar scores of infant born by elective cesarean section and normal vaginal deliveries. The research was done from May 2013 to January 2014 at the medical records department of general hospital center Dr. M. Djamil Padang. This was an analytic study with cross-sectional study design. This study used 179 samples with normal vaginal delivery and 56 samples with cesarean section. The result showed that 1st minute Apgar score of 4-6 in normal vaginal delivery was 3.4%, and Apgar score 7-10 was 96.6% in normal vaginal delivery while in cesarean section was 100%. The 5th minute Apgar score of  4-6 in normal vaginal delivery was 1.1%, and Apgar score 7-10 was 98.9% in normal vaginal delivery while in cesarean section was 100%. After being analyzed using Mann-Whitney test, the study showed that there was no significant different in Apgar score of neonates born through normal vaginal delivery and neonates born trough cesarean section at first minute (p=0.777) and fifth minute (p=0.887).Keywords: normal vaginal delivery, elective cesarean section, Apgar score

Abstract Background: In the past few decades, the rate of cesarean section (CS) has increased worldwide which is common in high income countries. Although cesarean section has lots of socioeconomic impacts in the career of mothers and babies especially in LMICs like Afghanistan, it is also increasing in such countries. In compare to vaginal delivery the cesarean section has higher risks for maternal health. The most important aim of this study is to search the commonest indications of cesarean section at the only teaching hospital in west region of Afghanistan, Ghalib Teaching Hospital in 2017.Material and Method: This was a cross-sectional study. Among 456 pregnant women who came to Ghalib Teaching Hospital, 287(63%) had vaginal delivery and 169 (37%) had cesarean section delivery in 2017. Data was collected reviewing medical records; patients discharge certificate and a questionnaire which consisted of the data like; history of previous cesarean sections, age, and so on. Data was analyzed by epi info 7.Results: the prevalence of cesarean section in Ghalib Teaching Hospital was 37%, the median age was 28 years old, the mean age was 23.83 and the most ages were between 21-25 (42.5%). The commonest indications were severe oligohydramnios (29.5%) followed by previous cesarean section (12.4%) and elective cesarean section 10.9% (on maternal request). The least indication was cephalopelvic disproportion (3.09%). In our research we had more than one indication about 10.3%.Conclusion: according to the research the commonest indication of cesarean section was severe oligohydromnios which shows emergency indication among pregnant women. As the women in Afghanistan want many children so they usually do not consider having cesarean section deliveries. Cesarean section on maternal request also has high rate which needs appropriate guidelines and also policies to decrease this high rate of selective cesarean section. In our research 52.1% of indications of CS was fetal factors. This shows in LMICs many fathers have valued to the health of babies instead of mothers. It is highly needed to inform fathers to know about health of both babies and mothers.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of episiotomy and its early complications in natural vaginal delivery in the maternity ward of Ali Ibn Abitaleb (AS) Hospital in Zahedan from 2014 - 2016. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, which was conducted in 2017, the archives of women who gave birth between 2014 - 2016 were reviewed. Data were collected using information forms and analyzed by SPSS software. Results: Of 418 women were reviewed, the episiotomy rate was 54.5%; there was a significant association between parity and mother age with episiotomy rate. Moreover, 24-hour pain frequency, perineal rupture rate, hematoma rate was significantly higher in the episiotomy group. First- and fifth-minute Apgar of the neonates in the episiotomy group was significantly lower. Conclusions: In overall, the episiotomy rate was 54.5%, and there was a significant association between parity and mother age with episiotomy rate.
