Aim: The aim of the study was to compare the outcomes of emergent and planned peripartum hysterectomy. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in two hospitals. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were compared according to the emergent and planned peripartum hysterectomy. Results: Totally 34020 deliveries were evaluated retrospectively and 66 peripartum hysterectomy cases were analyzed. Of these patients, 31 cases were planned surgery and 35 cases were emergent surgery. The patients who underwent planned peripartum hysterectomy had lower rate of blood transfusion (83.9% vs. 100%, p=0.014), higher postoperative hemoglobin levels (9.9±1.3 vs. 8.3±1.3, p<0.001) compared with the emergent hysterectomy group. The birth weight was lower although the apgar scores were higher in the planned surgery compared with the emergent cases. Conclusion: The planned peripartum hysterectomy with a experienced team provide less need for transfusion and improved neonatal outcomes in regard to the emergent peripartum hysterectomy.

Objective. To determine risks of severe adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in women with repeated cesarean delivery (CD) and primary CD compared with those with vaginal delivery (VD). Methods. Data of this cross-sectional study were extracted from 2,262 pregnant women who gave birth between August 2014 and December 2016, at Srinagarind Hospital, Khon Kaen University. Severe maternal outcomes were categorized based on the World Health Organization criteria. Adjusted odds ratio (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to indicate the risk of severe adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes among women underwent CD compared with those who underwent VD. Results. There were no cases of maternal death in this study. CD significantly increased risk of severe adverse maternal outcomes (SMO) (aOR 10.59; 95% CI, 1.19-94.54 for primary CD and aOR 17.21; 95% CI, 1.97-150.51 for repeated CD) compared with women who delivered vaginally. When compared with vaginal delivery, the risks of neonatal near miss (NNM) and severe adverse neonatal outcomes (SNO) were significantly higher in primary CD group (aOR 1.71; 95% CI 1.17-2.51 and aOR 1.66; 95% CI 1.14-2.43), respectively. For repeated CD, the risks were borderline significant (aOR, 1.58; 95% CI, 0.98-2.56 for NNM and aOR, 1.61; 95% CI, 0.99-2.60 for SNO). Conclusion. Primary and repeated CD significantly increased the risk of SMO compared with VD. Risks of NNM and SNO were also significantly increased in women with primary CD. The risks of NNM and SNO for repeated CD trended toward a significant increase.

Abstract Background: Hair colorant use has spread globally and rapidly in recent years. Concerns have arisen about the safety of hair dyes usage during pregnancy. The primary goal of this study was to examine the association between hair coloring during pregnancy, intrapartum, and neonatal outcomes.Methods: This explorative cross-sectional study was carried out at Talegani Teaching Hospital of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences from Jan 2017 to Dec 2019. Three trained midwives inquired mothers about the hair coloring history on the admission to the labor room and recorded intrapartum, and neonatal outcomes. Chi-Square test of independence with post hoc tests and Logistic regression analysis were used for data analysis. Odds Ratios with a 95% confidence interval and contributing effect sizes were reported. The significance level was set at α ≤ 0.05Results: We studied 2040 women aged 14 to 48 years. Most of the participants (75.24%) dyed their hair during pregnancy, and the majority (62.67%) colored their hair in the third trimester. There was no statistically significant association between hair coloring and neonate 1-minute (p=0.23) and 5-minute Apgar score (p=0.99). The logistic regression model did not confirm a rise in overall neonatal complications (NC) associated with hair coloring at any time during the pregnancy (OR:0.027 p<0.001). Higher rates of Low birth weight (LBW) were seen among those dyed their hair in the preconception period and third trimester compared to the woman who colored their hair in the first and second trimester (p<0.001).Conclusions: We observed associations between hair coloring and LBW, but there were no increased odds for NC. The evidence for recommending hair dye safety during pregnancy is still limited. Perinatal health professionals should advise their patients on possible adverse outcomes and inform them about the uncertainties about hair dyes.
