Objective: The aim of this study was to see the maternal and fetal outcome of preterm pre labor rupture membrane and to identify the risk factors for preterm pre labor rupture membrane. Methods and Material: This was a cross-sectional descriptive type study carried out in Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, during April to September, 2005 (6months) in the Department of Obstetric and Gynecology. 50 pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of the membrane (gestational age 29-0 to 36-6 weeks) were included in this study. Results: The mean age of the women was 27.24±6.28years and 36% of them more than 30 years old. Sixty two percent women were multi gravid .Socio-economic condition, level of education and antenatal care of the women was low. Median gestational age of the patient was 35 weeks. Fifty six percent had previous history of PROM, preterm delivery, abortion, MR and dilatation and curettage. Sixty two percent women had history of sexual activity between 2 to 7days. Seventy two percent women had UTI, anaemia, and lower genital tract infection. Mean duration of the latent period was 18.87 ±16.17hours and time interval of rupture membrane and delivery was 27.60 ± 21.127 hours. Eighty four percent patient delivered by vaginal route and Fifty four percent delivered within 24 hours of ruptured membrane. Forty two percent newborn suffered from neonatal asphyxia, respiratory distress syndrome, neonatal jaundice and neonatal sepsis. Thirty two percent women suffered from chorioamnionitis, abruptio placent and endometritis.Conclusion: PPROM is malnutrition and poverty related disease. Antenatal care is an important tool to prevent PPROM by identifying the risk factors and its management. Steroid for fetal lung maturity, antibiotics to prevent fetal and maternal infection and induction and /or augmentation of labor will speeded delivery and reduce hospital stay and infection.

Background : Premature Rupture of Membrane (PROM) is one of the most common complication of pregnancy. A woman with premature rupture of membrane is at risk of perinatal morbidity and mortality and also associated with maternal morbidity and psychological stress. Objective of this study was to determine incidence and risk factors of pregnant woman with PROM admitted in a tertiary hospital at Chattogram, Bangladesh. Materials and methods : This prospective observational study conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Chattogram Maa-O-Shishu Hospital Medical College (CMOSHMC) Chattogram from 1stJanuary 2018 to 31st December 2018. In this period total admitted antenatal patients were 8117. Among the pregnant patients with PROM were 665 and their weeks of gestation were > 28 weeks. Data was collected by interviewer with semi structured questionnaire & check list. Results : Incidence of PROM was 8.2%. PROM was found to be frequent (53%) in younger age group between 20-24 years. It was also commonly in primigravida (61.8%). Term PROM was higher (69.2%) than pre-term PROM (30.8%). 93.3% were singleton pregnancies, 6.4% were twins and .3% were triplets. Analysis of risk factors revealed ectiology was unknown in 46 (6.8%) low socioeconomic condition (60.6%), anaemia (45 %), lower genital tract infection (35.6%) UTI (31%) previous history of PROM (27.9%) malpresentation (15%) multiple pregnancy (6.7%) polyhydramnios (6%) history of recent coitus (12%) DM and GDM (10.5%) were commonly associated with PROM. Conclusions : Early identification of various risk factors causing PROM and their management can prevent premature deliveries and its complications to some extent as well as serious maternal complication like Chorioamnionitis.

A hospital based cross sectional study was carried out to analyze prevalence of risk factors for stroke in hospitalized patient in a medical college hospital. 100 patients were chosen using purposive sampling technique. Highest incidence of stroke was between the 6th and 7th decade. Patients came from both urban (54%) and rural (46%) areas and most of them belong to the low-income group (47%). In occupational category; service holder (28%) and retired person (21%) were the highest groups. Most of the study subjects were literate (63%). CT scan study revealed that the incidence of ischaemic stroke was 61% and haemorrhagic stroke 39%. Analysis indicated hypertension as major risk factor for stroke (63%) and major portion of the patients (42.85%) were on irregular or no treatment. Twenty four percent of the patients had heart diseases and out of 24 patients 45.83% were suffering from ischaemic heart disease. The present study detected diabetes in 21% patients. Fifty three percent of the study subjects were smoker, 39% patients had habit of betelnut chewing. Out of 26 female patients, only 23% had history of using oral contraceptives. Majority of the patients were sedentary workers (46%). Thirty seven percent of the stroke patients were obese. Among the stroke patients 9% had previous history of stroke and 3% had TIA respectively. Most of the patients (21%) were awake while they suffered from stroke and the time of occurrence was mostly in the afternoon (46%). This study found that hypertension, cigarette smoking, ischaemic heart disease and diabetes mellitus are the major risk factors prevalent in our community while other risk factors demand further study.

Introduction: An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg attaches somewhere outside the uterus.There are many risk factors for ectopic pregnancy. This study will help us to prepare a list of risk factors associated with ectopic pregnancy in our state. In addition, it will help implement a risk-reduction counseling program before conception, which will help us screen high-risk patients and reduce and manage ectopic pregnancy. Materials and methods: The present study was conducted in our department for two years, from August 2018 to July 2019. Cases included all patients with ectopic pregnancy admitted in labor. A total of 192 cases were taken, out of which 8 cases refused to participate in the study, so 184 patients were included in the study. Results: Patients with previous ectopic pregnancy have 6.34 times increased risk of a repeat ectopic pregnancy (odds ratio 6.34, confidence interval 1.40-28.77), and this association was highly significant (p = 0.006). The risk of ectopic pregnancy is 3.02 times increased (odds ratio 3.10; 95% confidence interval, 1.16-7.84) if the patient once had the pelvic inflammatory disease and is statistically significant (p = 0.01). The study also revealed that 17 (10.3%) patients with ectopic pregnancy had a history of tubal ligation or some other tubal surgery done in the past compared to 3 (2.2%) patients among controls, and this finding is statistically highly significant (p = 0.001). Conclusions: In the present study, we found that the main risk factors for incidence of ectopic pregnancy are prior ectopic pregnancy, prior tubal ligation, and prior pelvic/abdominal surgery. In addition, ectopic pregnancy was positively related to the previous history of ectopic pregnancy, abortion, cesarean section, and infertility. These findings can be helpful for early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy to pursue proper medical therapy instead of unnecessarily surgical treatment.

Background: The rupture of fetal membrane before onset of labour at less than 37 completed weeks of gestation. Incidence of Preterm prelabour rupture of membrane (PPROM) ranges from 3.0-10.0% of all deliveries and causes around 25-30% of all preterm deliveries. Objective: To see the clinical profile, maternal and fetal outcome of preterm prelabour rupture of the membrane. Materials and Methods: One hundred fifteen pregnant women with 28-37 weeks of gestation and diagnosed as PPROM admitted in different units selected by purposive sampling, fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled as study population in this study. Results: The mean age was 24.65(±3.68) years. Majority (75.65%) were primi para. The mean gestational age was 32.34(±2.86) weeks, 79.13% had gestational age between 30-36 weeks and 20.87% had up to 30 wks. The common risk factors of the study population were history of coitus, CPD, infection and history of abortion which were 42.61%, 9.57%, 5.22% and 4.35% respectively. Majority 55.65% women had vaginal delivery, 44.35% had caesarian section. Majority of the babies born to PPROM group were in the very low birth weight category (53 cases 62.3%), whereas only 32 cases (37.6%) were of normal birth weight. Infection and perinatal mortality was significantly associated with PPROM. Conclusion: PPROM can be prevented avoiding the certain risk factors by proper ante natal checkup, strict follow up, good obstetrical care and perinatal care , making mass awareness of the sequele.

Objective: The objective of the study was to assess the maternal and neonatal outcome in premature rupture of membranes.Material and Methods: A prospective study was carried out in the department of Obstetrics &Gynae in Ibn Sina Medical College hospital from October’15 to September’16. The sample size was 110. The maternal and neonatal outcome of pre-labour rupture of membranes in both term and preterm pregnancies was observed and statistically analyzed.Results: Incidence of PROM (premature rupture of membrane) was commonly in primigravida (62.7%). Term PROM was higher (70.92%) than PPROM (29.09%). Aetiological analysis revealed cause is unknown in most of the cases. Infection in 26.4% cases, previous history of PROM 16.3% and history of recent coitus 9.09% cases. Patient delivered by vaginal route 70.91% and LSCS 29.09%. The PROM had higher maternal morbidity (27.8%) like post partum fever 11.8%, wound infection 4.5% and chorioamnionitis 3.6%. Also higher perinatal mortality (4.5%) and morbidity (26.4%) like respiratory distress syndrome 9.09%, birth asphyxia 4.5%, septicemia 5.8%.Conclusion: Antenatal diagnosis to prevent PROM by identifying the risk factors is an important tool in management. Steroid for fetal lung maturity, antibiotics to prevent fetal and maternal infection, induction and/or augmentation of labour in due time and skilled NICU support will speed delivery, reduce hospital stay and infection as well as decrease maternal morbidity and perinatal morbidity and mortality.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.17(3) 2018 p.479-483

Background: Risk factors can lead to clinical conditions, like metabolic syndrome, that predisposes the development of cardiovascular diseases. Objective: The goal of this population-based, prospective and non-randomised cohort study was to study the association between patients with metabolic syndrome and other various factors defining metabolic syndrome. Methods: All the patients referred to the department of Medicine, Al-Ameen Medical college hospital and District Hospital, Vijayapur, Karnataka, India over a period of twenty-two months extending from December 2013 to September 2015 were considered in this study. Results: In the current study, out of 100 patients, 62.9% patients had metabolic syndrome with positive family history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus. 70.8% patients had metabolic syndrome with positive history of smoking. 64.3% patients had metabolic syndrome with positive history of alcohol .73.9% patients had metabolic syndrome with positive history of IHD. 87% of the patients with metabolic syndrome had SBP> 130 mmHg, and 78.85% patients had DBP>85 mmHg. And metabolic syndrome was observed in 71.8% patients on anti hypertensive drugs. The mean level of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglyceride is increased whereas the mean level of anti-atherogenic HDL cholesterol is low in subjects with MS. At least one lipid abnormality was present in > 95 % of cases. Around 81% subjects with BMI <25 (out of 38) had metabolic syndrome and 58% subjects with BMI>25(out of 62) had metabolic syndrome. Conclusion: All the components defining the metabolic syndrome correlated positively with the abdominal obesity. Systolic blood pressure values were significantly higher than diastolic blood pressure in subjects with abdominal obesity. Metabolic syndrome has multiple risk factors determined by various aspects like the race, the life style, geographical factors larger study is needed to understand the correlation between various components defining it. A healthy lifestyle, that includes avoiding tobacco exposure and proper weight control, must be encouraged in this high-risk population.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease with a remarkable global burden on the affected patients and healthcare systems. Among the reported complications, the diabetic foot has been reported to be a common one, which might be disabling, resulting in related amputations. Furthermore, we will provide evidence regarding the effect of education on the awareness and knowledge of diabetic Saudis about diabetic foot risk factors and management practices. Different risk factors were reported for developing diabetic foot among patients with DM. These will be studied in the current literature review, focusing on evidence that was conducted in Saudi Arabia. Age, gender, type of diabetes, education, duration of the disease, peripheral neuropathy, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, peripheral vascular disease, ischemic heart disease, renal artery disease, having a previous history of diabetic foot, and hypertension were all reported to be significant factors that were associated with the risk of developing diabetic foot across the Kingdom. The level of knowledge was variable across the different investigations. However, there is a poor attitude in general about the appropriate care practices of diabetic foot. Although it has been demonstrated that educational campaigns are effective, further efforts are still needed to increase awareness and attitude levels among diabetic patients in Saudi Arabia.
