Objectives: 1. To know the incidence of high risk pregnancy. 2. To study the pregnancy outcome in Non-risk and High-risk antenatal mothers. Study Design: Longitudinal study. Setting: Shindolli Village of Belgaum District. Participants: All women in this village who were pregnant at the start of the study and who became pregnant during the study period. Sample Size: 125. Statistical Analysis: Percentages and Chi-square Test. Results: The incidence of High risk pregnancy was noted in 51(40.80%) pregnant women. The various risk factors noted were: primigravida 18 years, grand multipara, pre-eclampsia, bad obstetric history, severe anaemia etc. Among 125 pregnancy outcome, 69(93.24%) pregnant women in the non-risk group had good outcome compared to 34(66.67%) in the high risk group. The outcome of the pregnancy was significantly associated with presence of risk factors. Conclusion: The high-risk pregnancies are due to early marriages and child bearing at an early age. In rural areas early marriages are perpetuated by tradition, belief and family needs to reduce expenditures. A high percentage of anaemia in the pregnant women was due to the fact that, majority of them belonged to low social classes which affect their dietary intake and purchasing power adversely. Another common factor noted in rural area was grand multiparity, due to the need for male child. JMS 2014;17(1):16-19

Status Assessment

Background: ‘High-risk’ pregnancies account for a significant proportion of perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Simple prenatal scoring systems can be used to assess risk status of pregnancy and inform subsequent management. Their use in rural areas and low-resource settings could be of particular benefit. This study employed pregnancy risk status assessment in one such area of rural India. The objectives of the study were to estimate the prevalence of low, moderate and high-risk pregnancy among women in a rural area of Belagavi and to identify factors associated with high-risk pregnancy status.Methods: This community-based cross-sectional study was undertaken among 105 pregnant women of all trimesters presenting to antenatal clinics in the Kinaye area of Belagavi, Karnataka, during July 2018. Information on risk factors and socio-demographic details were collected using a questionnaire, and individual risk scores calculated through a scoring system. This was used to estimate prevalence of low, moderate and high-risk status among participants, and subsequently compared against selected variables to identify factors associated with high risk pregnancy status.Results: Prevalence of high-risk pregnancy among participants was 31.4%, moderate-risk 30.5%, low-risk 29.5% and ‘no risk’ 8.6%. Maternal undernutrition was an important factor associated with high-risk pregnancy.Conclusions: This study highlights the need for early identification and appropriate management of such cases, in order to prevent adverse perinatal outcomes. The prenatal scoring system used in this study offers a simple method for risk status assessment in pregnant women of all trimesters, suited for use in antenatal clinics in rural areas of India.

Risk Pregnancy

Background: High-risk pregnancy refers to any condition in pregnancy that increases risk for morbidity or mortality in mother, fetus and neonate. Globally, nearly 5,29,000 women die due to pregnancy related complications. In India, 20-30% of the pregnant patients contribute to high risk group. This study was conducted to determine different high-risk factors prevalent in antenatal women in Haryana. Objective of this study was to find out prevalence of different high-risk factors in antenatal women.Methods: Data of all antenatal high-risk patients attending OPD during one year was taken from hospital record registers. Maternal characteristics such as age, gravida/parity, gestational age, and gestational age at the time of first visit were noted. High risk factors identified were noted.Results: The records of total 10073 antenatal women were analyzed, 1283 were included in the high-risk group. Most prevalent high-risk factors found were previous cesarean section (31.04%), anaemia (31.02%), malpresentation (12.93%) and thyroid disorders (13.09%).Conclusions: Antenatal surveillance for the high-risk factors complicating pregnancy may prevent or treat most of the complications. Authors should develop strategies for early screening of high-risk pregnancy cases to prevent maternal and perinatal mortality and to improve the maternal and perinatal outcome.

High-risk pregnancy is a pregnancy that is likely to cause harm or complications to the mother and fetus. Given the high rate of disease transmission, the use of telehealth technology can be an effective and efficient way to deal with the spread of the virus. Telehealth is one solution to overcome the problem of access to health, with telehealth it can perform screening to detect high-risk pregnancies early, so that pregnant women can get continuous monitoring. Telehealth can operate as a filter that is able to expand and facilitate access to services, especially in the examination and screening of risks in pregnancy and can apply high risk detection instruments in pregnancy in applications, so as to facilitate decision making. Telehealth can detect high-risk pregnancies early, so that pregnant women can get continuous monitoring. The purpose of this activity is to conduct and determine the effectiveness of telehealth-based high-risk detection in pregnant women. The method of activity is in the form of community service through webinars and screenings which are carried out within 6 months online. The result of the activity is an increase in the knowledge of webinar respondents with an average pre-test value of 120 and post-test 157 out of a total of 200. Based on the results of screening using the SIBIDAN application, from 25 pregnant women in trimesters 1,2, and 3 who became respondents, the results were 52%, low risk group, 32% high risk group, and 16% very high-risk group. Therefore, further assistance, monitoring, and referral are needed to minimize pregnancy complications.

Risk Pregnancy

High-risk pregnancies are still common in rural areas. The percentage of high-risk pregnancy in Singorojo sub-district of Kendal District in the last three years has increased significantly. The highest number of cases was in Cening and Singorojo villages. In the past year, 86.88% of pregnancies in Cening village and 55.42% of pregnancies in Singorojo village were categorized as high-risk. The lack in community education limited prevention of high-risk pregnancies. Prenatal Class Plus model is an innovation that was being developed in this study. This is a research and development study with qualitative and quantitative approaches. The “Prenatal Class Plus” model was developed in Cening and Singorojo village. Research subjects were pregnant women, husbands, or families of pregnant women, health cadres, and related stakeholders. Research data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Prenatal Class Plus model can improve the knowledge, attitude and efforts of pregnant women and their husbands during parturition and prevention of pregnancy complications (P4K).

A Prospective Study

This was a prospective study conducted in pregnant patients with high risk factors who got admitted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Care Hospital, Jamnagar during the period from May 2018 to September 2020. Background: High-risk pregnancies causes many adverse perinatal outcomes. Doppler ultrasound is a non-invasive technique to study the feto-maternal circulation to guide the clinical management. Objective: This study aims at evaluating the role of colour Doppler in high-risk pregnancies and their perinatal outcome. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective study carried out for 29 months in the Department of Radiology with antenatal women in the age group of 18-35 years with singleton pregnancy of gestational age of <28 weeks to >35 weeks having high-risk factors considered in study. The risk factors considered were pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH), gestational diabetes, anemia, oligohydramnios, polyhydramnios and IUGR. Doppler study of umbilical artery and fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA) arteries was done and amniotic fluid index (AFI) was measured. Parameters in the form of resistive index, pulsatility index, and systolic/diastolic ratio were taken. obstetric history was taken with regular interval follow up. Results: The study was carried out with 50 patients. High-risk pregnancy was more common in the age group of 21-25 years. The most common high-risk factor in pregnancy was oligohydramnios which accounted for 30% of cases. Out of 50 high-risk pregnancies, 5 (10 %) of cases resulted in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). Out of 50 high-risk cases, in 36 cases, umbilical artery findings were abnormal. 3 patients had intrauterine death (IUD) and 27 patients had poor perinatal outcome. Umbilical artery abnormality showed significant sensitivity and negative predictive value for adverse (poor + IUD) perinatal. Correlation was seen between high risk pregnancy and need of emergency caesarean section and induction and associated adverse perinatal outcome. Conclusion: Combination of different arterial waveform study enhance the diagnostic accuracy in identifying those intrauterine growth restricted foetuses that were at risk. Keywords: Colour Doppler, high risk pregnancy, perinatal outcome.

High-risk pregnancy is the probability of adverse pregnancy outcome is increased over the general pregnant population. Some high-risk pregnancy is the result of a medical condition present before pregnancy. In other cases, a medical condition that develops during pregnancy causes a pregnancy to become high risk. The reason why high-risk pregnancy is important is detecting the risk factors for high risk pregnancy early and preventing the complicated pregnancy. Korean society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (KSOG) announced the classification of high-risk pregnancy including 95 risk factors: obstetrics risk factors, medical risk factors, physical risk factors and risk factors of current pregnancy. However, this announcement of high-risk pregnancy by KSOG was limited for maternal-fetal healthcare providers to apply their working and making policy. First this didn't include the conception of the complicated pregnancy and high-risk delivery. Second this did not separate the risk factors depend on before and during pregnancy. This review briefly evaluates the classification of high-risk pregnancy by KSOG and suggest the new classification including the complicated pregnancy and high-risk delivery for maternal-fetal healthcare providers.

Abstract Introduction The pregnancy-puerperal cycle is defined as a moment that involves physical, psychological and social changes. There are pregnancies that require specialized care and attention due to the presence of risk factors that may be prior to pregnancy and / or that may be associated with the pregnancy condition itself, which characterize them as high-risk pregnancies. Currently, prenatal care with risk stratification is the main care strategy for pregnant women, once the risk classification is identified, it is possible to promote interventions according to the health needs of each pregnant woman. For this, the risk assessment is carried out at each prenatal consultation, so that, depending on the course of pregnancy, hospitalization becomes necessary. The diagnosis of high-risk pregnancies accompanied by hospitalization has impacts on the woman's life, such as loss of autonomy, a sense of failure and the incidence of greater care and interventions by the health team and the family that can configure practices to control their bodies. Objective This work aims to identify the hospitalization process during high-risk pregnancy as a space for the production of projects, resistance and protagonism through the protocols and regulations that configure the hospital context. Methodology This is an exploratory analysis of a qualitative approach in public health. A reference maternity hospital in high-risk pregnancy located in a teaching hospital in Greater Vitória was chosen. It will be used to define sampling for convenience. The data will be collected through semi-structured interviews and on-site observations by the researcher. The data analysis methodology used will be content analysis. Expected Results It is expected to understand the various practices of protagonism and resistance that permeate the care of hospitalized pregnant women. Key messages This work has an impact on the improvement of the maternal and child care network of the public health system in Brazil. This work allows to evaluate the quality of the assistance provided in the public maternity.
