Objective:To assess the determinants of Pregnancy induced hypertension. Methods: A case control study was conducted among pregnant women at Rajiv Gandhi Women and Children Hospital, Puducherry. 63 women with PIH were selected as cases and 63 normotensive pregnant women were taken as controls. The cases were selected by purposive sampling and the controls by simple random sampling. The tool consists of a self structured questionnaire which consists of the socio demographic factors and various other determinants assumed as a risk factor for PIH and some required information was also obtained from the case records. Statistics: The odds ratio and Chi-square test was used to determine the risk and association between PIH and the determinants respectively.Results: Primigravida (OR=2.826), multiple pregnancy (OR=2.629), presence of pedal edema (OR=54.836), family history of diabetes (OR=2.969), family history of hypertension (OR=5.5) Overweight (OR=2.12) and obesity (OR=6.52) were found to be significant risk factors of PIH.

Background: Hypertensive disorder is the second most common medical disorder seen during pregnancy. Hypertensive disorder contribute to maternal morbidity and mortality mainly due to its complications and not due to hypertension per sec. Thus, maternal mortality and these complications are preventable. The objective of the present study was to study the pattern of feto-maternal outcome and complications in cases of pregnancy-induced hypertension to identify them at the earliest. Methods: A study was conducted over a period 8 months in the department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Cama and Albless Hospital, Mumbai. This study enrolled a total of 50 pregnant women with pregnancy-induced hypertension with inclusion-exclusion criteria. Necessary information such as Sociodemographic information, detailed clinic, and obstetric history, clinical examination, investigations, and fetal outcome was noted by using preformed proforma. Results: In our study the majority of PIH mothers belonged to the age group of 20-25 years (46%); PIH is more prevalent among nulliparous (54%). Among PIH mother, the most common presenting clinical feature was pedal edema (44%), followed by headache (16%). The most prevalent complication among PIH patients was oligohydramnios (20%).

Pre-eclampsia or pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) re-named as gestational hypertension is one of the important causes of maternal death in developing countries like Bangladesh. The foetal outcome is also very unsatisfactory and disappointing in pre-eclamptic mothers. Considering this view, the objective of this study was to assess the foetal outcome in pre-eclamptic mothers and also to identify the factors influencing the outcome. This was a cross sectional study conducted among the pregnant mothers admitted into Gynaecology and Obstetrics Department of Shaheed Suhrawardi Hospital, Dhaka, with specific signs and symptoms of pre-eclampsia during the period from January 2002 to December 2003. A total of 100 pre-eclamptic mothers were studied. Bivariate analysis revealed that a statistically significant association was present between complicated preeclampsia (p<0.05) and previous positive medical history with abnormal foetal outcome (p<0.05), but no statistically significant association was found between foetal outcome and age, occupation of the mother and the husband, socioeconomic status, parity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, previous surgical and bad obstetrical history, body built, maternal oedema (p>0.05). Analysis also found that poor foetal outcome was significantly associated with haemoglobin level less than 10 gm%, gestational age and mode of delivery (p<0.01). Analysis of relative risk indicated that the abnormal foetal outcome was 7.1 times higher in complicated pre-eclamptic mothers than only pre-eclamptic mothers (p<0.001, 95% CI=2.598-19.957).

Background: Oligohydramnios is defined as when on ultrasonography the single largest pocket in horizontal and vertical diameter is less than 2cm or amniotic fluid index is less than 5cm. Normal amniotic fluid index is 5-25cm. The overall incidence is 0.5 to more than 5%. However, the incidence increases in post dated pregnancies as many as 11%. It is increasing these days because of changes in lifestyle and also reduced maternal fluid intake.Methods: A prospective randomized study was done in Dept of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, MGMMC and MYH, Indore during the period of 6 months from 1st July 2017 to 31st December 2017. It included 200 cases from all the antenatal patients attending Antenatal OPD in routine and emergency and who are admitted in MYH beyond 28 weeks of pregnancy.Results: Majority of cases i.e. 64% were handover, babies with 26% were IUDs (intra uterine devices) and Rest 10% requiring neonatal care in nursery. The color Doppler changes showed normal flow in 54% in cases with 26% showing early fetal hypoxia and 14% showing uteroplacental insufficiency. Rest of the 6% cases were IUD. Incidence of IUGR was 50% in babies most commonly being constitutionally small. About 8% cases were found to be associated with abruption and 24% cases were found to be associated with pregnancy induced hypertension. Most common mode of delivery was vaginal delivery in 68% cases. However, 32% cases underwent LSCS.Conclusions: There has been reported cases of sudden IUD in severe oligohydramnios presenting with loss of fetal movements.
