Article Synopsis
- Puerperal endometritis is a common cause of puerperal fever, affecting over half of the patients studied (52.7%).
- A significant portion of these patients (41.2%) required curettage, with bacterial infections being identified in about half of the sampled cultures.
- Factors like abdominal pain, malodorous lochia, fever within the first two weeks postpartum, and ultrasound indications of retained products of conception were linked to the need for curettage.
Introduction: Prognostic markers for fetal transmission of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection during pregnancy are poorly understood. Maternal CMV-specific T-cell responses may help prevent fetal transmission and thus, we set out to assess whether this may be the case in pregnant women who develop a primary CMV infection.
Methods: A multicenter prospective study was carried out at 8 hospitals in Spain, from January 2017 to April 2020.
Background: There is little evidence about how novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) affects pregnant women and their newborns. Comparisons with other members of the coronavirus family responsible for severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) have been done to predict maternal and neonatal outcomes; however, more information is required to establish clinical patterns, disease evolution and pregnancy prognosis in this group of patients.
Methods: This paper is reporting a series of 91 women diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy and puerperium.
Background: Information regarding the incidence and characteristics of COVID-19 pneumonia amongst pregnant women is scarce.
Methods: Single-centre experience with 32 pregnant women diagnosed with COVID-19 between March 5 to April 5, 2020 at Madrid, Spain.
Findings: COVID-19 pneumonia was diagnosed in 61·5% (32/52) women.
Objective: To analyze the usefulness of a clinical protocol for early detection of preeclampsia and/or fetal growth restriction (PE/FGR) using, in previously selected pregnancies, the measurement of the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio at 24-28 weeks of gestation.
Study Design: Prospective observational cohort study carried out in a single tertiary hospital in Spain. 5601 consecutive singleton pregnancies with complete follow-up were included.
