Article Synopsis
  • Cesarean sections are the most common surgical procedure globally, but infections and hemorrhage post-surgery significantly impact women's health.
  • The study conducted at Soroka University Medical Center involved comparing women with post-cesarean infections to those without, to assess the safety of adhesion barriers and hemostatic agents used during the surgery.
  • Results indicated that the use of these agents was linked to a higher risk of post-cesarean infections, with the study showing an adjusted odds ratio suggesting these tools may independently contribute to infection risk.

Objective: We aimed to investigate whether the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) may assist in the prediction of post CS infections.

Study Design: This was a case control study performed at the Soroka University Medical Center, a large tertiary teaching medical center, between the years 2012-2016. Cases (post CS infection) were matched to controls (without post CS infection) in a proportion of 2:1.

Objective: To compare prevalence and risk factors for urinary tract infection (UTI) following midurethral sling surgery with either the GYNECARE ABBREVO Continence System (Ethicon, Somerville, NJ, USA) or a standard transobturator.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted among women who underwent midurethral sling surgery to treat stress urinary incontinence at a single tertiary hospital in Israel between January 1, 2014, and August 11, 2015. Data were retrieved from medical records.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of urinary tract infection (UTI) one year following sub-midurethral sling (SMUS) incontinence surgery in a university affiliated medical center in southern Israel.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to identify and characterize patients who suffered UTI within a year following SMUS surgery. The study population comprised of all patients who underwent a SMUS surgery between the years 2014 and 2015.

Objective: To determine whether fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring categories during the 1st and 2nd stage of labor can predict arterial cord pH <7.2.

Materials And Methods: A case control study was conducted including 653 consecutive term deliveries (37 weeks gestation and above) that were divided according to fetal pH ≤ 7.

Objective: To investigate fetal gender and its influences on neonatal outcomes, taking into consideration the available tools for the assessment of fetal well-being.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective study comparing maternal, fetal and neonatal outcomes according to fetal gender, in women carrying a singleton gestation. A multivariate analysis was performed for the prediction of adverse neonatal outcomes according to fetal gender, after adjustment for gestational age, maternal age and fetal weight.
