Background: Cardiac disease is one of the non obstetric problems causing mortality both in pregnancy and labor due to the complications. Preventions for the complications have not been implemented, thus the number of patients which have cardiac disease with complications and perinatal outcome with low birth weight is still high. Objective : To identify maternal and neonatal outcome of pregnant women with cardiac disease in dr. Soetomo Surabaya hospital in 2018. Method: Descriptive retrospective study using medical records in dr. Soetomo Surabaya hospital 2018. Result: We found 1433 pregnancy cases with 51 (3,6 %) patients were having cardiac disease and included in this research. The most common maternal complication was pulmonary hypertension 16 cases. A dead case was found 1 case (1,9 %) with eissenmenger syndrome. We found the perinatal outcome of 30 babies (58.8%) born with a weight of 2500 gram and under. There are 7 patients with cardiac disease that have been corrected (13,7%). Among those 7 patients, 6 had a perinatal outcome with a birth weight of more than 2500 gram. Conclusion : Most pregnant patients with cardiac disease in dr. Soetomo Surabaya hospital 2018 are already having some complications with perinatal outcomes of low birth weight. Therefore, management of cardiac disease in pregnancy to prevent complications by means of preconception counseling, good antenatal care, and appropriate referrels are still needed to improve the quality of maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Background: Impaired maternal and uteroplacental perfusion can occur in pregnancy with cardiac disease leading to maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity due to increased cardiac load and ventricular dysfunction. This research aims to determine maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies with cardiac disease. Method: This research was a descriptive observational study conducted by a total sampling method and a cross-sectional design. This research used medical records of pregnant women with cardiac disease who gave birth in RSUP Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang in January 2018-December 2020 as study samples. Result: Among 68 pregnancies with cardiac disease, there were 4 cases (0.87%) found in 2018, 37 cases (2.47%) found in 2019, and 27 cases (1.48%) found in 2020. The highest distribution of pregnancies with cardiac disease was found at 64.7% in the range of 20-35 years old age group; 57.4% in the multiparity group; 38.2% in the range of ≥34 – <37 weeks gestational age group; 86.8% in the high school educational level group; 66.2% in the high-risk cardiac functional status group; 54.4% in the peripartum cardiomyopathy group; and 36.8% with preeclampsia/eclampsia as a comorbid. In this study, maternal outcomes found were maternal mortality at 11.8%; cardiac failure at 70.6%; arrhythmia at 1.5%; and stroke at 1.5%, while perinatal outcomes found were prematurity at 60.3%; low birth weight at 64.4%; IUGR at 37.0%; IUFD at 1.4%; stillbirth at 6.8%; neonatal death at 9.6%; and perinatal asphyxia at 42.5%. Conclusion: The prevalence rate of pregnancies with cardiac disease in RSUP Dr. Mohammad Hoesin Palembang was 0.87% in 2018, 2.47% in 2019, and 1.48% in 2020. The most common maternal outcome in this study was cardiac failure, with most in the peripartum cardiomyopathy group, while the most common perinatal outcome was low birth weight, with most in the hypertensive heart disease group.

Background: Maternal nutrition plays an important role in maternal and fetal outcome. The low maternal BMI or Obesity is associated with adverse outcome.Methods: A total 148 primigravida included. BMI was calculated on first visit and in each trimester, all booked patient was followed throughout pregnancy and delivery for any maternal and fetal complications.Results: (66.2%) of patients were with normal BMI, (17.56%) were underweight, (10.13%) were overweight and (6.08%) patients were obese. APH was seen in (11.1%) and (6.7%) cases in BMI grades ‘IV and III’ respectively. PIH was present in total 10 cases, (33.3%) cases belonged to BMI grades IV. Anemia was present in total 51 cases (53.8%) belonged to BMI grade I. Preterm delivery was present in total 5 cases and out of them (7.7%), (2%) and (11.1%) belonged to BMI grades I, II and IV respectively. GDM was present in 11 cases and out of them (26.7%) and (44.4%) cases belonged to BMI grade III and IV respectively. PPH was present in total 5 cases and out of them (7.7%), (2%) and (11.1%) belonged to BMI grades I, II and IV respectively. In BMI grade I group, (96.2%) babies had birth weight <2.5, while in BMI grade IV, (88.9%) babies had birth weight >2.5 (22.2%) cases of fetal macrosomia belonged to BMI grade IV.Conclusions: There is importance of pr-pregnancy counseling in maintaining weight of women during pregnancy to avoid pregnancy maternal and fetal outcomes.

ABSTRACT Objective To study the relationship between maternal hemoglobin and maternal and perinatal outcomes in a cohort of 1200 women, and to highlight the importance of antenatal care to improve maternal health, maternal and fetal outcome. Method All singleton pregnancies delivering at NKPSIMS, from January 2009 to December 2009 that fulfilled the required criteria were included. Results Out of 1200 women, 787 were anemic (67.2%) < 11 gm of Hb and 413 were nonanemic. Perinatal outcome included preterm delivery, birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction, perinatal death, low Apgar scores and intrauterine fetal death. Risk of preterm and low birth weight among anemic women was 4.2 times and 1.8 times more than nonanemic women. The neonates of anemic women had 1.8 times more risk of low Apgar scores at 1 minute. Among anemic women there was 2.4 times greater risk of intrauterine fetal death than nonanemic women. The women with anemia had 2.5 times higher incidence of PPH than nonanemic women. Puerperal complications were 2.5 times more in anemic women than nonanemic women. Conclusions Regular patient education by imparting proper knowledge regarding iron-rich foods, food fortification, implementation of anemia prophylaxis program from adolescence, regular antenatal care from 1st trimester has a vital role in assessing and managing maternal anemia timely, and it directly affects the perinatal outcome. The patients with anemia have higher risk of having low birth weight, preterm birth and Intrauterine fetal death (Rawalmeds 2007,32:102:101:104).

Study in order to know the results of prenatal care related to clinical complications of pregnancy, newborn’s low birth weight and prematurity in the context of the users of the service. Descriptive, exploratory research with quantitative approach developed with 305 users who underwent prenatal care in primary care in the city of Mossoró-RN. The data collection occurred from the application of a validated questionnaire, the IPR-PRENATAL index. The results indicate that over 50% of pregnant women had some type of complication during their pregnancy process, among intercurrent diseases in pregnancy, and experienced by users, the urinary tract infection was the most prevalent (28.0%), followed by anemia (19.3%) and hypertension (15.7%). Hypertension and anemia were the only events that interfere with the newborn’s weight, which showed that the existence of complications contributes in three times to the occurrence of low birth weight. In this sense, the quality of prenatal care can minimize that type of complication.

Abstract Context The effects of maternal subclinical hypothyroidism on pregnancy outcomes are not clear. Objective We aimed to assess potential associations between maternal thyrotropin (thyroid-stimulating hormone [TSH]) levels in pregnancy and obstetric and perinatal outcomes. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Tertiary academic medical center. Patients Women aged ≥18 years with a singleton gestation and no known thyroid disease seen for prenatal care at Boston Medical Center from January 1, 2003 through May 22, 2014, and their fetuses and infants were included. Main Outcome Measures Risk ratios of adverse obstetric and perinatal outcomes. Results A total of 8,413 pregnant women (mean age 29.1 years, 15% white, 60% black, 13% Hispanic) and their fetuses and infants (mean gestational age at birth 38.5 weeks, 52% male, mean birth weight 3.2 kg) were included in the analyses. The median (interquartile range) TSH level was 1.06(0.62–1.60) mIU/L, and 130 women (1.6%) had TSH &gt; 4 mIU/L. Maternal TSH levels &gt; 4 mIU/L were associated with increased risks of prematurity (risk ratio [RR] 2.17 [95% confidence interval 1.15–4.07] P = .016) and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) (RR 2.83 [95% confidence interval 1.02–7.86] P = .046) compared to TSH levels ≤ 4 mIU/L. Although not statistically significant, TSH levels &gt; 4 mIU/L were also associated with increased RRs for fetal loss, preeclampsia/eclampsia, and low birth weight. TSH levels &gt; 4 mIU/L were not associated with preterm labor, placental abruption, cesarean section, gestational hypertension or diabetes, or neonatal intensive care unit admission. Conclusion Maternal serum TSH concentration &gt; 4 mIU/L in pregnancy was associated with approximately 2-fold increased risks of prematurity and RDS in offspring. Elevated TSH was also associated with statistically non-significant increases in the risk of fetal loss, preeclampsia/eclampsia, and low birth weight.

Abstract Background We aimed to evaluate the difference between the effects of three categories of classifications of placenta previa (PP) on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods This study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, The Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, between January 2009 and 2018. The three categories of PP were the four-classification (low-lying, marginal, partial, and complete PP), three-classification (low-lying, “marpartial,” and complete PP), and two-classification (low-lying PP and PP) methods. We performed multivariate analysis to determine the effects of these classifications on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Results There were 4490 singleton pregnancies complicated with PP, of which 466, 1233, 140, and 2651 were low-lying, marginal, partial, and complete PP, respectively. As per the four-classification method, compared with women with low-lying PP, women with complete PP had a risk of placenta accrete spectrum, postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), hemorrhagic shock, severe PPH, blood transfusion, hysterectomy, puerperal infection, preterm labor, NICU admission, and low birth weight. There was no difference in maternal and perinatal outcomes between marginal and partial PP, except for increased chances of preterm labor and low birth weight in partial PP. In the two-classification method, PP was the risk factor for most of the adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes. Conclusions Complete and low-lying PP were associated with the highest and lowest risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes, respectively, whereas clinically similar outcomes were observed between marginal and partial PP. The three-classification method may be practical from the ultrasound and clinical perspective.

Background: Advanced maternal age is an important predictor for maternal and neonatal outcomes such as maternal mortality, low birth weight, stillbirth, preterm birth, cesarean section and preeclampsia. Objective: To determine the association of advanced maternal age and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in Iranian pregnant women. Methods: In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, 5117 pregnant women from 103 hospitals in Tehran, Iran, were participated in the study in 2015. The required data were gathered from hospitals which equipped to the department of obstetrics and gynecology. Advanced maternal age was considered as an independent variable and unwanted pregnancy, preeclampsia, preterm birth, cesarean section and low birth weight were considered as interested outcomes. Results: In our study, the prevalence of advanced maternal age was 12.08%. Advanced maternal age was significantly associated with higher risk of unwanted pregnancy (OR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.12-1.73), preterm birth (OR: 1.75, 95% CI: 1.28- 2.39) and cesarean section (OR: 1.34, 95% CI: 1.03-1.74). In our study, there was no significant relationship between advanced maternal age and preeclampsia but this relationship could be clinically important (OR: 1.48, 95% CI: 0.99-2.20, P=0.052), and there is no significant relationship between advanced maternal age and low birth weight (OR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.67-1.74, P=0.736). Conclusion: Advanced maternal age is associated with higher risk of unintended pregnancy, preterm birth and cesarean section but our findings did not support advanced maternal age as a risk factor associated with low birth weight.

Background: Pregnancy may increase the risk of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection because of pregnancy induced immune suppression. The objective of this study was to use a large population-based dataset to estimate the prevalence of HPV infection and its association with adverse outcomes among pregnant women. Methods: We analyzed Pregnancy Risk Monitoring System data from 2004-2011 (N=26,085) to estimate the self-reported HPV infection. Survey logistic procedures were used to examine the relationship between HPV infection and adverse perinatal outcomes. Results: Approximately 1.4% of women were estimated to have HPV infection during their pregnancy. The prevalence of adverse outcomes in this sample was preterm birth (8.4%), preeclampsia (7.5%), low birth weight (6.3%) and premature rupture of membranes (2.8%). Compared to women without HPV infection, HPV infection positive women were much more likely to have had other infections such as chlamydia (9.23% vs. 2.12%, p-value <.0001), Group B Strep (21.7% vs. 10.04%, p-value <.0001), and herpes (7.17% vs. 1.07%, p-value <.0001). After adjusting for other risk factors including other infections, HPV infection was significantly associated with low birth weight (OR: 1.94, 95% CI: 1.14-3.30). Conclusion: The study indicated a potential association between HPV infection and low birth weight. Because pregnant women with HPV infection are at higher risk of other infections, future research may focus on the roles of co-infection in the development of adverse perinatal effects.

Objectives: To compare the perinatal outcome (low birth weight, preterm delivery) in women with <6 month versus 12-17 months of interpregnancy birth interval. Material and methods: This Cohort study was conducted at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Lahore General Hospital Lahore from March 2020 to September 2020. Total 420 patients with age range 18-40 years, singleton pregnancy, women with previous live birth, parity 1-4 and Gestational age > 28 weeks assessed on LMP were selected for this study. Patients were divided into two groups (A & B) according to their inter-pregnancy interval i.e. <6 months group labelled as A group and 12-17 months group labelled as B group. All patients in both groups will be followed till delivery and the perinatal outcome i.e. preterm delivery (birth occurred before completion of 37 weeks of gestation) and low birth weight (those babies whose weight less than 2.5 Kg at the time of birth) were noted. Results: The mean age of women in group A was 26.73 ± 6.56 years and in group B was 26.73 ± 6.56 years. The perinatal outcome was preterm delivery in 189 (90.0%) and low birth weight babies in 143 (68.10%) women of <6 months while in 12-17 months interpregnancy interval, it was noted in 111 (52.86%) and 102 (48.57%) women respectively Conclusion: Our study concluded that appropriate inter pregnancy interval could reduce the rate of preterm delivery and low birth weight babies and optimal interval associated with the lowest risk of adverse perinatal outcome was 12-17 months. Keywords: Birth spacing, short interval, preterm delivery, low birth weight.
