Evaluation of sociodemographic factors and outcome associated with anaemia and its mode of correction in anaemic women (antenatal and non-antenatal) admitted in obstetrics and gynaecology department of tertiary care centre

Background: Multiple pregnancy remains one of the highest risk situations for the mother, foetus and neonate despite recent advances in obstetrics, perinatal and neonatal care. Twin pregnancies have increased rates of obstetric and perinatal complications compared to singletons Objective of present study was comparative assessment of fetomaternal outcome in twin pregnancy with singleton pregnancy in Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department of S.M.S. Medical College, Jaipur.Methods: This was a hospital based, prospective observational study done in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. S.M.S. Medical College, Jaipur from April 2015 to March 2016. 150 women with twin pregnancy and 150 women with singleton pregnancies at gestation age of 28 weeks and above coming for delivery and consented for the study were included in the study. Women with chronic medical disorder or chronic hypertension were excluded from the study. Maternal and neonatal outcome recorded and analysed.Results: Occurrence of twin in our study was 2.82%. Risk of preterm labour was about nine times higher in twin pregnancies than the singleton (OR: 2.74, 95% CI; 1.4494-5.1884, P value 0.001). The risk of premature rupture of membrane was increased by 2.74 times in twin pregnancies (OR:2.74; 95% CI: 1.4494-5.1884, p value .001). There was 3-time increased risk of malpresentation (OR 3.14; CI:1.7184-5.7480, p value .00002) and 2.28 times increase in hypertensive disorder (OR 2.28; 95% CI: 1.0727-4.8823, p value .03) in twin pregnancies. The risk of asphyxia and septicaemia was 2.5 times more in twins.Conclusions: Twin pregnancy is a high-risk pregnancy with more complications in mother and foetus and is a great challenge for obstetrician. So, it should be managed carefully at tertiary care centre to reduce the maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity.

Background: Over the last few decades, there has been an alarming increase in the rate of deliveries by caesarean section (CS) in most of the countries, though the drivers of this trend are not completely understood. In 1985, WHO had proposed that ideal rate for regional CS rates should not exceed 10-15%. The Robson’s classification system is simple, robust and flexible. The study was done as it was important to have a tool to monitor, compare the CS rates in a same setting and between different settings over a period of time and to optimise the CS rates.Methods: It was a retrospective study conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology in a tertiary care centre. The hospital delivery records were reviewed for a period of 15 months from April 2020 to June 2021.Results: The total number of deliveries during the study period was 1016. The total number of CSs was 441 and the total number of vaginal deliveries was 575.The CS rate was 43.4%. The relative contribution from groups 1, 2 and 5 in our study accounted for 76.36% and group 5 accounted for 44.4% of the total CSs. These 3 groups should be the focus of attention to reduce the overall CS rates.Conclusions: It is advisable that all institutions can use the Robson’s report table to analyse the population catered by them and to make institutional specific policies. This will allow comparing the data amongst the different institutions and countries which can help in policy making.

Background: Aim of the present study was to found the incidence of APH, demographic profile risk factors and maternal outcome.Methods: This was a retrospective study carried out in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, MGM Medical College and associated M.Y., Hospital, Indore from August 2019 to July 2020.Results: The incidence of APH was 3.27%. 68.7% cases of APH were associated with pregnancy induced hypertension suggesting PIH is one of the major risk factors. Maternal morbidity was very high with increased rates cesarean section 91.7%, postpartum hemorrhage (32.6%), need of blood transfusion (86%). There were 2 mortalities and 3.1 % patients underwent Obstetric Hystrectomy and 24% required CCU admission.Conclusions: There is very high maternal morbidity and mortality in APH.

Background: Eclampsia is one of common cause of maternal mortality in developing country like India. It can be detected and prevented if early ANC care is properly done. Mainstay of management in case of eclampsia is early delivery to improve the prognosis in terms of reducing maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality.Methods: This prospective study was carried out in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology, at tertiary care centre in the state of Gujarat, for a period of two years from July 2012 to June 2014. With purposive sampling method all patients admitted with complain of eclampsia is included in study. Details are taken in predesigned, pre-validated and prescribed proforma.Results: Hospital based incidence of eclampsia in our study is 1.11%. Majority of the patient were unbooked. Eclampsia is a disease of young primigravida, specifically teenage primigravida. Seventy-five percentage of eclampsia cases occurred in the antenatal period, 14% in intranatal period and 11% in the postnatal period.Conclusions: In developing countries like India still eclampsia is major problem. Good antenatal care with increased antenatal visits may help in reducing the incidence. Increased incidence among young primigravida and low socio-economic status group provides the target group for medical measures.

Mupirocin Resistance

Apropos to the article by Dr Bali, titled “Mupirocin resistance in clinical isolates of methicillin-sensitive and resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a tertiary care centre of North India” (1), the authors have raised important issue of emerging antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Antimicrobial resistance is an increasingly serious threat to global public health that requires action across all government sectors and society. As per WHO, AMR lurks the effective prevention and management of an ever-increasing spectrum of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, fungi and viruses. Novel resistance mechanisms are emerging and spreading globally, threatening the man’s ability to treat common infectious diseases.
