Background: In modern obstetrics, the prevalence of Eclampsia and its complications are high, so we decided to study pregnancy outcome in all Antepartum Eclampsia patients. The present study was carried out to investigate the maternal and fetal outcome in patient with Antepartum eclampsia.Methods: A prospective study was conducted in Government Mohan Kumaramangalam Medical College Hospital, Salem, India over a period of one year from January 2016 to December 2016 in all Antepartum Eclampsia patients. Analysis was done regarding the age of women, parity, gestational age, imminent symptoms, mode of delivery, fetal outcome and maternal morbidity and mortality.Results: Incidence of Antepartum Eclampsia in our hospital is 0.7%. It is more common in age group of 20 to 25years (68.5%) and primigravida (56%) and gestational age >37 weeks (51.85%). Commonest mode of delivery was by caesarean section (72%). Out of 54 patients of Antepartum Eclampsia 3 (5.5%) died and 18 (33%) had complications. Out of 50 live babies, 16 (32%) died.Conclusions: Eclampsia is still one of the important and common obstetric emergencies and it has a significant role in maternal and fetal outcome. The early identification of risk factors and timely intervention is needed to improve maternal and perinatal outcome.

Background: To study the incidence, management and to determine maternal and perinatal outcome in cases of twin pregnancy with one twin demise in the second half of the pregnancy.Methods: This retrospective study was carried out at Cheluvamba Hospital, a tertiary care hospital attached to Mysore medical college and research institute between September 2009 and 2014. 19 twin pregnancies complicated by single intrauterine fetal demise (IUFD) after 20 weeks of gestation were identified from the hospital records. Data collected included maternal age, parity, antenatal complications, cause of IUFD, gestational age at diagnosis, time interval between diagnosis of IUFD and delivery, mode of delivery, birth details, type of placentation and neonatal complications.Results: The incidence of twin with one twin demise was 2.056%. Mean gestational age at presentation was 33.86 weeks. Most common cause of death was growth discordance in 7 cases followed by placental insufficiency in 4 cases. 57.89% of cases had monochorionic placentation. Neonatal course was most commonly complicated by prematurity. Maternal course was uneventful in majority (63.15%) of cases with two maternal deaths due to intravascular coagulopathy sequelae.Conclusions: Single fetal death occurs more often in monochorionic twins. The main problem for the surviving twin is prematurity. It is very important to identify the chorionicity by ultrasound examination in early pregnancy and implement specific surveillance of monochorial pregnancies.

Background: Fetal, neonatal and maternal complications associated with pregnancy beyond 40 weeks have always been underestimated. However emerging evidence demonstrates that the incidence of complications increases after 40 weeks of gestation. The present study was conducted to find out the fetomaternal outcome of such prolonged pregnancy.Methods: This was a prospective cross-sectional study of 70 patients with uncomplicated prolonged pregnancy fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria and admitted in department of obstetrics and gynecology at a tertiary care hospital B. J. Medical College, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.Results: Out of 70 patients, majority of the subjects belongs to 26-30 years of age (50%). The gestational age of 90% of patients were between 40-42 weeks. About 42-44% of the foetus had a birth weight of 2.5-3.5 kgs. Maximum patients underwent vaginal deliveries in spontaneous group (57%) and 64% underwent LSCS in induced group. Mode of delivery is significantly associated with presence of adequate liquor.Conclusions: With regular antenatal check-up, incidence of postdate pregnancy can be decreased and it is important because of definite risk to fetus as pregnancy continuing beyond 40 weeks of gestation is associated with increased perinatal morbidity and mortality especially those who do not come for regular antenatal check-up.

Background: Most severe and frequent complication of pregnancy is Oligohydramnios and the incidence of this is observed to be about 1-5 % of total pregnancies. Objective of present study was to find the maternal and perinatal outcome, etiology associated with oligohydramnios at tertiary care hospital.Methods: This prospective study was done among 55 patients with gestational age from 30-40wks with Oligohydramnios AFI<5cms with intact membranes were analysed for perinatal outcomes admitted at department of obstetrics and Gynecology in B.J. Medical college, Ahmedabad during July 2008 to July 2010.Results: 65.5% participants were belonged to 20 to 25 age group and 35.5% participants were Primigravida. Mean age was 23.9±3.3 years and mean gestation age was 36.9 week. Almost 72.2% were in 34 to 37 weeks of gestational age. Study found FMC <10 in 56.4% of participants. Forty percent participants have AFI 4 and 27.3% have AFI 5.  47.3% delivery was done by vaginal route. 5.5% baby was still birth and prematurity were the most common cause of still birth. Around 71% babies were low birth weight and congenital anomalies were present in 7.3% babies. APGAR score measured <7 at 1 minute was in 65.4% and <7 at 5 minutes was in 43.6% babies.Conclusions: Oligohydramnios in obstetrics is a frequent occurrence and it points towards intensive surveillance and proper ante-natal and post-natal care. Due to high perinatal morbidity and mortality, the incidence of LSCS increases. However, vaginal delivery has similar outcome, but strict vigilance in labor is mandatory.

Background: Just about three decades ago (1976) congenital malformations comprised 8% of perinatal deaths, from available data and ranked fifth as a cause of perinatal mortality. But the trend is rapidly changing over the years. perinatal death was due to congenital malformation, is the second commonest cause. This changing trend over years warns us that with the control of nutritional and infectious diseases, congenital malformations will come to the forefront as it is in India. To find out the incidence of congenital anomalies in stillbirth. And the probable etiology of congenital anomalies.Methods: The study was conducted at Government Mohan Kumaramangalam Medical College Hospital, Salem in the year 2017 August- September 2018. Totally 5000 babies born of consecutive deliveries were taken for the study, over the period of one year. All mothers were interrogated within 48 Hours of delivery as per the proforma prepared, which contains the following particulars like, maternal and paternal age, consanguinity, detailed antenatal history with reference to exposure to teratogens, especially during 1st Trimester.Results: Of the five thousand consecutive deliveries 48 deliveries were multiple delivers and a number of stillbirths were 108. The incidence of congenital anomalies was 30.4 per 1000 live birth (152 cases). Major malformations were present in 20.8 per 1000 (104 cases) while minor malformations were 9.6 per 1000 (48 cases).Conclusions: Incidence of malformation were higher in preterm babies 6.31%. Incidence of malformations were higher in male babies, especially genitourinary system anomalies. Antenatal events in the 1st trimester like fever, drug intake could be implicated in the etiology of malformations especially neural tube defects in our study.

Haemophilia is one of the most common bleeding disorders globally. Though the prevalence of haemophilia in Bangladesh according to the ‘World Haemophilia Registry’ is ten per million people, the original prevalence would be much higher. There is lack of evidence about the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of these patients. The objective of the present study was characterization of the haemophilia patients according their socio-demographic condition as well as their disease and treatment related profiles. All the patients who visited the haematology department of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital (RMCH) from May 1, 2019 to April 30, 2020 diagnosed as haemophilia were included in the study. Socio-demographic and clinical data from 74 haemophilia patients were analysed. Among them 72 patients were male. More than two-thirds of the patients were from rural area and belonged to lower socioeconomic status. Total 72 out of 74 patients were suffering from haemophilia A. Severity of the disease was mild 34%, moderate 63% and severe 3%. More than 86% patients reported target joint of bleeding and 78% of them had bleeding in last six months. A total of 73% patients received treatment within past six months of the current visit and all of them received factor concentrates. More than 94% patients received treatment on demand. Under the shed of findings of the present study it is recommended that a funded haemophilia management program and optimum use of prophylactic therapy is necessary to improve the quality of life as well as increase life expectancy of the patients.

Background: The number of maternal death has decreased by 43% from an estimated 532 000 in 1990 to 303 000 in 2015. The progress is notable, but the annual rate of decline is less than half of what is needed to achieve the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) target of reducing the maternal mortality ratio by 75% between 1990 and 2015, which would require an annual decline of 5.5%. Our aims of study to evaluate the mode of delivery and its obstetric and fetal outcomes and to find out the association between Mode of delivery with socio demographic and medical complication.Methods: Study design was a retrospective analytical record based study. In study setting, conducted in tertiary care hospital at GMERS Medical College and Civil hospital, Valsad, Gujarat. Detailed information is obtained from last 6 months review of data from obstetric and gynecology department. A data analysis of the outcome was carried out by using appropriate statistical test and MS excel.Results: out of total 692 mothers for maternal age majority of them from the age group of 21-25 ages followed by 26- 30 yrs of age which were 46.96% and 24.27% respectively. Out of the 644 babies majority of babies were born at term (43.43%) followed by very low birth weight (41.55%).Conclusions: No statistically proven association found between modes of delivery with mothers socio demographic characteristics and between mothers literacy status with weight of child and week of gestations.

Background: Obstructed labour is one of the most common preventable cause of maternal and prenatal morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to determine the risk factors as well as to asses the outcome of obstructed labour. Method: This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Gynecology & Obstetrics at Shaheed Ziaur Rahman Medical College Hospital, Bogra during the period from January 2007 to December 2007. One hundred and five cases with features of obstructed labour were selected as per inclusion and exclusion criteria in a consecutive method. A detailed history included sociodemographic feature, obstetric history, features of obstruction, intrapartum events were recorded to detect risk factors. Condition of patients, mode of delivery, preoperative and post operative complications, maternal and fetal outcomes were recorded. Results: A total number of 3171 deliveries were conducted during this period and 132 cases of obstructed labour were found constituting an incidence of 4.2%. The highest frequency was found among the unbooked, primigravid patients that were illiterate or only having primary education level. The commonest cause was cephalo-pelvic disproportion (47.5%) followed by fetal malpostion (25.7%) and malpresentation (24.8%). The majority of the patients were between 25-29 years, caeserean section was the most common mode of delivery (78.09%). Maternal morbidity due to different complication accounted for 76.19% of the case while the fetal morbidity was 51.31% of the cases. The maternal mortality was 1% and prenatal mortality was 24.76%. Conclusion: In this study the incidence of obstructed labour was very high. The commonest cause was cephalo-pelvic disproportion followed by fetal malpostion and malpresentation.

Objectives: To audit the obstetric hysterectomies in a tertiary care hospital during one year. Methods: It was an observational retrospective study design, where all the pregnant women were assessed for fetomaternal outcomes, indications and complications for peripartum hysterectomy. The records were retrieved from Jan 2015 to Dec 2015 by using hospital record system. The study duration was of one year. The venue of the study was Lahore General hospital, Lahore. The exclusion criteria included all unmarried women, women with chronic kidney disease or renal failure, past surgical history of heart disease, whereas all the women who delivered in hospital, private clinic or at home after atleast 28 weeks of gestational age and experience hysterectomy at the time of delivery or after delivery in the puerperium, were included in the study. Results: The data over 32 women were retrieved from the hospital record system. The mean age of the women was 30.34+2.23 with range 26-34. The average number of parity was 3 of all females. The range of parity was 2 to 7. The average gestational age was 36.18 weeks. All the deliveries were done by cesarean section whereas 4 (12.5%) were elective and 28 (87.5%) were with emergency indications. 13 (40.6%) of the deliveries were in private clinic, 9 (28.1%) were done by LHV/ mid wife, 5(15.6%) were in private hospitals, 4(12.5%) were in LGH and only 1(3.1%) was at home. 18(56.3%) of the women were having at least one abortion in previous history. Conclusion: We concluded that emergency peripartum hysterectomy is very vital procedure that saves lives and manage life threatening obstetrical hemorrhage when other methods failed to control it.The major indications for emergency peripartum hysterectomy were placental abruption, placenta praevia/accrete, uterine atony and ruptured uterus.
