Coagulation And Fibrinolysis

Tests of coagulation and fibrinolysis were performed in 20 patients with severe preeclampsia and in 20 normal pregnant women. Compared with the normal patients, the women with severe pre-eclampsia had raised factor VIII, increased cryofibrinogen and reduced platelet counts. Despite increased resistance to urokinase-induced fibrinolysis, the pre-eclamptic women had lower plasminogen and increased serum and urinary F.D.P. levels. These results suggested that intravascular fibrin deposition was a feature of severe pre-eclampsia. In each test, the range of values in the pre-eclamptic women overlapped with the controls, so that no single test indicated whether intravascular coagulation was present in every case of severe pre-eclampsia. By the use of logistic analysis, it was possible to demonstrate that an abnormality of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems was present in every case of severe pre-eclampsia. In 10 patients with moderate pre-eclampsia, the severity of the coagulation abnormality was intermediate between the severe cases and the controls.By sequential logistic analysis, it may be possible to anticipate the phase of clinical deterioration and permit delivery before the onset of fetal death. The haemostatic abnormalities would appear to be a constant and inevitable feature of pre-eclampsia.

Coagulation And Fibrinolysis

SummaryVarious tests of hemostasis were carried out during pregnancy, labour and the puerperium in a group of 259 women. Determinations were carried out in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trimesters, in the period of dilatation, the expulsion period, the period of expulsion of the placenta and the immediate postpartum period of labour and on each of the first 5 days of the puerperium. It was confirmed that during pregnancy there is an elevation of the fibrinogen degradation producs (FDP) levels with a proportional increase in the numbers of positive protamine sulfate and ethanol tests. The proportion of positive protamine sulfate and ethanol tests reaches a maximum in the expulsion of the placenta coinciding with the presence of soluble complexes heavier than fibrinogen as detected by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and by column chromatography.All this indicates that there is a transitory intravascular coagulation produced during labour reaching its maximum at the time of birth and tending to become normalized in the first few days of the puerperium.

SummaryWe report on a man (age: 49 years), who died from severe meningococcal sepsis with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and extended skin necrosis. We discuss in detail the pathophysiology of the activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis during sepsis. The article discusses new therapeutic concepts in the treatment of disseminated intravascular coagulation in meningococcal sepsis, too.

The Aim of this study is to Review the timing of intervention which will provide the Best Outcome in Hypothyroidism in Pregnancy. Hypothyroid pregnant women are appropriately managed with regular antenatal checkup and thyroxine therapy during pregnancy, a good maternal and fetal outcome can be achieved and congenital cretinism and other neuro developmental sequele in the offspring can be averted.

ABSTRACT Studies of iodine metabolism have been carried out in 15 pregnant women, 33 cases with sporadic goitre and 11 with thyrotoxicosis. A low plasma inorganic iodine was common to the three groups. In pregnancy and sporadic goitre the thyroid clearance of iodine was elevated and the absolute iodine uptake normal. A high thyroid clearance of iodine in thyrotoxicosis was associated with a high absolute iodine uptake. The results suggest that both pregnancy and sporadic goitre are physiological responses to an iodine deficiency state while the iodine deficiency state of thyrotoxicosis is secondary to increased thyroid activity.

Antenatal care (ANC) literacy is particularly important for pregnant women who need to make appropriate decisions for care during their pregnancy and childbirth. The link between inadequate health literacy on the educational components of ANC and maternal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is undisputable. Yet, little is known about the ANC literacy of pregnant women in SSA, with most studies inadequately assessing the four critical components of ANC literacy recommended by the World Health Organization, namely danger signs in pregnancy; true signs of labour; nutrition; and preparedness for childbirth. Lesotho, a country with one of the highest maternal mortality rates in SSA, is also underexplored in this research area. This cross-sectional study explored the levels of ANC literacy and the associated factors in 451 purposively sampled women in two districts in Lesotho using a structured questionnaire, making recourse to statistical principles. Overall, 16.4 per cent of the participants had grossly inadequate ANC literacy, while 79.8 per cent had marginal levels of such knowledge. The geographic location and level of education were the most significant predictors of ANC literacy, with the latter variable further subjected to post hoc margins test with the Bonferroni correction. The participants had the lowest scores on knowledge of danger signs in pregnancy and true signs of labour. Adequate ANC literacy is critical to reducing maternal mortality in Lesotho. Improving access to ANC education, particularly in rural areas, is recommended. This study also provides important recommendations critical to informing the national midwifery curriculum.

Objectives: Thyroid disorders are among the common endocrine problems in pregnant women. It is now well established that not only overt but subclinical thyroid dysfunction also has adverse effects on maternal and fetal outcome. There are few data from Bangladesh about the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy. With this background, this study aims to find out thyroid dysfunction (both overt and subclinical hypothyroidism) in pregnancy and its impact on obstetrical outcome.Methods: We studied the evaluation of 50 admitted pregnancies corresponding to 29 women with subclinical hypothyroidism and rest 21 was overt hypothyroidism. Detailed history and examination were performed. Apart from routine obstetrical investigations, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) estimation was done. Their obstetrical and perinatal outcomes were noted.Results: Overt hypothyroidism was significantly (p<0.05) higher in 25 to 44 years age group. However two and three abortions were significantly (p<0.05) higher in overt hypothyroidism patients. In sub clinical hypothyroidism 86.2% conceived firstly within 2 years and 66.7% in overt hypothyroidism patients conceived firstly in between 3 to 5 years after marriage. Overt hypothyroids were prone to have pregnancy-induced hypertension 42.9%, intrauterine growth restriction (P=0.001) and gestational diabetes (38.1%) as compared to subclinical cases. Neonatal complications were significantly more in overt hypothyroidism group. Mean TSH level was significantly (p<0.05) higher in overt hypothyroidism patients but mean FT4 level was almost similar in both groups. Majority of the patient underwent caesarean section in both groups due to associated medical and obstetrical complications. None of the babies showed hypothyroidism by cord blood tests. In this analysis our results showed that overt hypothyroidism among Bangladeshi pregnant women are associated with more maternal complication & adverse parental outcome than subclinical hypothyroidism. The adequate treatment of hypothyroidism during gestation minimizes risks and generally, makes it possible for pregnancies to be carried to term without complications. Significant adverse effects on maternal and fetal outcome were seen emphasizing the importance of routine antenatal thyroid screening.Bangladesh Med Res Counc Bull 2014; 40 (2): 52-57
