Purpose: This study aimed to compare the effects of early cord clamping (ECC), delayed cord clamping (DCC), and umbilical cord milking (MC) on maternal and neonatal outcomes in elective cesarean births.
Methods: We analyzed 204 women with uncomplicated at-term singleton pregnancies, who underwent cesarean birth under regional anesthesia between March and July 2021. The women were randomized into three groups: DCC (clamped 60 s postpartum), ECC (clamped within 15 s postpartum), or MC (clamped after milking five times) group.
Article Synopsis
- The study compared early maternal feeding and on-demand feeding after Caesarean delivery, focusing on gastrointestinal issues and patient satisfaction.
- A total of 262 women were divided into two groups: one received soft food two hours post-surgery, while the other ate when they wanted.
- Results showed no significant differences in satisfaction or gastrointestinal complaints between the two groups, although the early feeding group started eating significantly sooner than the on-demand group.
- The conclusion suggests that allowing early feeding does not worsen gastrointestinal problems and may enhance patient satisfaction, potentially shortening hospital stays and lowering costs.
Objective: This study was conducted to compare the tocolytic efficacy of glyceryltrinitrate (GTN) with that of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and to investigate serum nitric oxide metabolites before and after tocolysis.
Material And Methods: In total, 48 women between 27 and 34 weeks' gestation with threatened preterm labor and intact membranes were randomly allocated to receive either GTN or MgSO4 tocolysis. Main outcome measures included tocolytic efficacy and maternal side effect(s) of the tocolytic agent.
What is the success of ultrasonography of benign adnexal masses?
J Obstet Gynaecol Res
February 2014
Aim: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the ultrasonographic discrimination of benign adnexal masses.
Methods: This was a prospective study, evaluating 245 consecutive cases using real-time gray-scale ultrasonography in a tertiary education hospital.
Results: Diagnostic accuracy was high for simple cysts and solid masses as κ-values of 0.
Objective: The aim of this study was to demonstrate the neuroprotective effect of magnesium sulfate on ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury in fetal rat brain.
Methods: Twenty-four, 19-days pregnant rats were randomly allocated into four groups. Fetal brain ischemia was induced by clamping the utero-ovarian artery bilaterally for 20 min and reperfusion was achieved by removing the clamps for 30 min.
