Background: Surgical site infection is the invasion by microorganisms of the tissue layers affected by the surgical procedure. Maternal morbidity from infections has been shown to be higher after caesarean section compared to the vaginal delivery. Objective of the research was to analyze the risk factors associated with surgical site infections after caesarean section.Methods: This was a cross sectional (affected/non affected) study approved by the institutional committee for ethics and research of the faculty of medicine and biomedical sciences. A total of 310 medical files were assessed, 62 files from patients with surgical site infections and 248 files from patients without any complications. The data was collected using a pretested questionnaire and analyzed using the statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) software version 22.0. The Chi squared and the Fisher exact tests were used to assess homogeneity between the 2 groups. Odd ratio 95% confidence interval was used to assess the association between the variables.Results: The proportion of surgical site infections during the study was 1.81%. Factors associated with surgical site infections were premature rupture of membranes (OR: 2.065; 95% CI 1.051-4.05; p=0.035); the vertical midline incision (OR=5.26; 95% CI; 1.41-19.57; p=0.013) and a operation by a resident physician doctor (OR=1.98; 95% CI 1.09-3.59; p=0.02).Conclusions: A factors associated with surgical site infections after caesarean section are a premature rupture of membranes, vertical midline incision and the qualification of the practitioner.

The early 28 days of life called the neonatal period is the most vulnerable period for infants. The infants face the highest risk of death in the first month after birth. The most common cause of infant death is asphyxia, prematurity, and infection. Infection in newborns is defined as a condition where the newborns have a disease caused by microorganisms. One of the risk factors causing infection in newborns includes factors from the mother, such as premature rupture of membranes, green or meconium and smelly amniotic fluid, maternal infection, and others. The main objective of this research was to describe the risk factors of incidence of infection in newborns at RSUD Abdul Wahab Sjahranie Samarinda. This research uses a retrospective descriptive method with the cross-sectional approach. Sampling was done by taking data on medical records of patients at the RSUD Abdul Wahab Sjahranie Medical Record Installation using total sampling technique. The results obtained were 99 samples that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria with details of patients who experienced premature rupture of membranes by 18 people (18,2%), poor amniotic color by 62 people (62,6%), mothers who had leukocytosis by 15 people (15,2%), and the incidence of infection in newborns by 2 people (2%). the collected data were tabulated bu frequency and percentage and displayed in tables

Risk factors associated with preterm delivery in the Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen National Hospital from January to June 2010 Lizbeth Estefanía Díaz Polo Universidad de San Martin de Porres. Lima 12 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33017/RevECIPeru2011.0036/ RESUMEN El parto pre término ocurre entre las 22 y antes de las 37 semanas. Su etiología es multifactorial y es causa principal de morbilidad y mortalidad perinatal. El objetivo fue determinar los factores de riesgo asociados al parto pre término en gestantes del Hospital Nacional Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen de Enero a Junio del 2010. Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo, caso - control y descriptivo. Las historias clínicas de pacientes casos y controles, fueron revisadas y registradas en fichas y se procesaron con el SPSS versión 15. Los resultados fueron 81 pacientes con diagnóstico de parto pre término, con significancia estadística en las siguientes variables: ausencia de atención prenatal (OR 3.07, P>0.05), pre eclampsia (OR 20.86, P>0.001), ruptura prematura de membranas (OR 4.03, P>0.005), embarazo múltiple (OR 5.64, P>0.01), corioamnionitis (OR 2.02, P>0.1), lugar de nacimiento: sierra (OR 3.88, P>0.05) y nivel socioeconómico D-E (OR12.73, P>0.05). Se evidencio que gestantes más pobres y con menor nivel educativo presentan mayor incidencia de parto pre término [1] [2] [3]. Que el 21% de los partos pre término, estuvo asociado a la ruptura prematura de membranas (OR 4.03) dato que se encuentra dentro del rango de incidencia, ya que Aagaard-Tillery [4] (2005) señala una incidencia de la ruptura prematura de membrana pre término entre 30 y 40% y Fabián (2008) observó 11.67% de ruptura prematura de membranas [5]. Las gestantes con pre eclampsia tuvieron un riesgo 20 veces más de presentar parto pre término. El 34.6% con parto pre término presentó pre eclampsia, de ellas el 42.8% fue pre eclampsia severa, 25% leve y 32.14% síndrome de HELLP; dato similar al observado por Salviz en su estudio en el Hospital Cayetano Heredia, donde encontró un 30 % de parto pre término en pacientes con pre eclampsia; si bien es conocido que la pre eclampsia afecta del 3 al 5% de las gestaciones, no existen estudios sobre la incidencia de la pre eclampsia en el parto pre término [6]. Se concluye que el principal factor de riesgo asociado al parto pre término fue la pre eclampsia. Haber nacido en la sierra, pertenecer a nivel socioeconómico D-E, ausencia de atención prenatal, ruptura prematura de membranas, coriomanionitis y embarazo múltiple fueron también significativos. Descriptores: factores de riesgo, parto pre término, parto a término, pre eclampsia. ABSTRACT Preterm birth occurs between 22 and before 37 weeks. Its etiology is multifactorial and is a major cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. The objective was to determine the risk factors associated with preterm delivery in pregnant women Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen National Hospital from January to June 2010. We performed a retrospective case - control and descriptive. The case histories of patients and controls were reviewed and recorded in chips and processed with SPSS version 15. The results were 81 patients diagnosed with preterm birth, with statistical significance in the following variables: absence of prenatal care (OR 3.07, P> 0.05), pre-eclampsia (OR 20.86, P <0.001), premature rupture of membranes (OR 4.03, P> 0,005), multiple pregnancy (OR 5.64, P> 0.01), chorioamnionitis (OR 2.02, P> 0.1), place of birth: saw (OR 3.88, P> 0.05) and socioeconomic status (OR12.73, P> 0.05). It was evident that more poor pregnant women with less education have a higher incidence of preterm delivery [1] [2] [3]. That 21% of preterm births was associated with premature rupture of membranes (OR 4.03) data that is within the range of incidence, as Aagaard-Tillery [4] (2005) noted an incidence of premature rupture preterm membrane between 30 and 40% and Fabian (2008) observed 11.67% of premature rupture of membranes [5]. Pregnant women with preeclampsia had a 20 times higher risk of preterm birth present. 34.6% presented with preterm birth pre-eclampsia, of which 42.8% was severe preeclampsia, 25% and 32.14% mild HELLP syndrome; data Salviz similar to that observed in their study in the Cayetano Heredia Hospital, where he found a 30 % of preterm birth in patients with preeclampsia, although it is known that pre-eclampsia affects 3 to 5% of pregnancies, no studies on the incidence of preeclampsia in preterm labor [6]. We conclude that the main risk factor associated with preterm delivery was preeclampsia. Being born in the mountains, belong to socioeconomic status, lack of prenatal care, premature rupture of membranes, coriomanionitis and multiple pregnancy were also significant. Keywords: risk factors, preterm delivery, term delivery, pre-eclampsia.

<p><strong>OBJECTIVE:</strong> To evaluate clinical characteristics of surgical-site infections (SSIs) following cesarean section (CS) and to identify infection rates and risk factors associated with SSIs following cesarean section. <br /><strong>STUDY DESIGN:</strong> A total of 197 patients who underwent cesarean and complicated with SSIs was evaluated during hospital stay or within 30 days following cesarean section by readmission to the hospital or by post discharge survey. The clinical characteristics, subsequent microbiological culture results and management were recorded. <br /><strong>RESULTS:</strong> There were 34 (17.25%) patients complicated with preeclampsia and 26 (13.17%) gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in the study group. Preterm rupture of membranes (PROM) rate was 17.31% and mean rupture period were 6.61 hours. In the study population, 66 patients had positive culture results. The most isolated microorganism was S. Aureus (n=13, 19.7%). Preeclampsia, GDM and PROM rates were statically significant high in patients with positive culture results (p&lt;0.05). There were 31 patients complicated with PROM in the study group. The rates of positive culture results were significantly increased by PROM (mean 45%, p&lt;0.05).<br /><strong>CONCLUSION:  </strong>Independent risk factors for post-cesarean SSIs are younger age, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, premature rupture of membranes. Information regarding higher rates of SSIs should be provided to obese women undergoing cesarean delivery, especially when diabetes and hypertension coexists.</p>

Background: Stroke is a great public health problem in Ethiopia. According to reports, in-hospital stroke mortality was estimated to be 14.7% in Ethiopia. Despite this, in this country researches done on factors associated with stroke sub-types were inadequate. Objective: To assess the Characteristics and risk factors associated with stroke sub-types among patients admitted to JUMC. Methods and materials: A retrospective cross sectional study was conducted from May 2017 to May 2018 in stroke unit of Jimma University Medical Center. A total of 106 medical charts of patients diagnosed with stroke were reviewed. Checklist comprising of relevant variables was used to collect data. SPSS version 21 was employed for data entry and analysis. Chi-square test was used to point-out association and difference among stroke sub-types. The data was presented using text, tables and figures. Result: From a total of 106 patients, 67(63.2%) were men. The mean ± SD of age was 52.67±12.46 years, and no significant association was found. Of all the patients, 59(55.6%) had ischemic strokes and 47(44.4%) had hemorrhagic strokes. The most common risk factor in the patients was alcohol use with a prevalence of 69.9%. Of all the risk factors, only sex, cigarettes smoking and dyslipidemia were significantly associated to sub-types of stroke. Conclusion: Ischemic stroke was the most common subtype of stroke. Sex of patient, cigarette smoking and dyslipidemia are significantly associated with the two stroke subtypes.

Inadequate Bowel Preparation

The success of a colonoscopy in detecting and removing pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions depends heavily on the quality of bowel preparation. Despite efforts, 20–44% of colonoscopy participants have an inadequate bowel preparation. We aimed to assess and compare risk factors for inadequate bowel preparation and for the presence of advanced colorectal neoplasms in routine screening practice. In this cross-sectional study, among 8125 participants of screening colonoscopy in Germany with a comprehensive assessment of sociodemographic factors, lifestyle and medical history, we examined factors associated with inadequate bowel preparation and with findings of advanced neoplasms using adjusted log-binomial regression models. Among the identified risk factors assessed, three factors were identified that were significantly associated with inadequate bowel preparation: age ≥ 70 years (adjusted prevalence ratios, aPR, 1.50 95%CI 1.31–1.71), smoking (aPR 1.29 95%CI 1.11–1.50) and abdominal symptoms (aPR 1.14 95%CI 1.02–1.27). The same risk factors were also associated with the prevalence of advanced neoplasms in our study (aPR 1.72, 1.62 and 1.44, respectively). The risk factors associated with inadequate bowel preparation in this study were also associated with a higher risk for advanced neoplasms. Inadequate bowel preparation for colonoscopy might lead to missed colorectal cancer (CRC) precursors and the late diagnosis of CRC. People at high risk of advanced neoplasms are in particular need of enhanced bowel preparation.
