Subsequent Pregnancy Outcome in Women with Prior Complete Uterine Rupture: A Single Tertiary Care Centre Experience.

Limited data is available to assess the burden of maternal morbidity, mortality, and perinatal outcome after subsequent pregnancy in women with prior uterine rupture. Therefore, this retrospective descriptive study was conducted to determine subsequent pregnancy outcomes in a larger series of women with prior complete uterine rupture. All pregnant women who had complete uterine rupture were managed according to the standard Institute protocol.

Atypical neurological manifestations in Wernicke's encephalopathy due to hyperemesis gravidarum.

Objectives: Hyperemesis gravidarum is known to induce nutritional, water and electrolyte deficiencies which can be fatal if not treated urgently. Thiamine deficiency may lead to a constellation of neurological symptoms that include Wernicke encephalopathy. Moreover, Wernicke encephalopathy is typically manifested as ocular paresis, ataxia and confusion.

Subsequent pregnancy outcome after uterine compression suture placement for postpartum hemorrhage.

Objective: To evaluate the subsequent obstetrical outcome in women who received a uterine compression suture.

Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of women who received a uterine compression suture for postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) between January 2009 and December 2018 and had a subsequent pregnancy at a tertiary care hospital in India. Women who had PPH but did not receive uterine compression sutures and had a subsequent pregnancy were taken as controls.

Diagnosis and treatment outcomes of Cushing's disease during pregnancy.

Purpose: We report a case of a pregnant woman with Cushing's disease (CD) and performed a systematic review of literature on diagnosis, treatment, maternal and fetal outcomes of CD in pregnancy.

Methods: A PubMed search was performed for manuscripts in English language from inception till June 2020. Cases of CD with hypercortisolism during pregnancy were included and categorized into three groups based on treatment received.

Efficacy and safety of Tramadol as an analgesic in women undergoing vaginoscopic hysteroscopy: a randomized placebo-controlled trial.

Pain or discomfort during the hysteroscopy remains a challenge even after the introduction of small calibre instruments and vaginoscopic techniques. Tramadol, a centrally acting analgesic, is one among the medications used to reduce pain; however, the experience with its use in the vaginoscopic technique is limited. This was a randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial conducted to study the effectiveness of oral Tramadol as an analgesic in 100 women undergoing diagnostic vaginoscopic hysteroscopy.

Comparison of 'push method' with 'Patwardhan's method' on maternal and perinatal outcomes in women undergoing caesarean section in second stage.

A deeply impacted foetal head in a second stage caesarean section is associated with an increased risk of maternal and neonatal complications. For the present study, we compared the maternal and neonatal outcomes during the use of the 'Push method' and of 'Patwardhan's method' for a foetal head delivery in a second-stage caesarean section. This was a retrospective observational study involving 298 women who underwent a second stage caesarean section with a foetal head at or below the level of their ischial spines and was conducted in a tertiary teaching hospital in South India.

Addition of power Doppler to grey scale transvaginal ultrasonography for improving the prediction of endometrial pathology in perimenopausal women with abnormal uterine bleeding.

Background & Objectives: Transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) is a non-invasive procedure and can be used as a screening tool among women with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Power Doppler is useful in depicting the vascular architecture better than the conventional Doppler. Hence, this study was conducted to evaluate whether addition of power Doppler to grey scale TVS can replace invasive hysteroscopy for the prediction of endometrial pathology in perimenopausal women with AUB.

Effect of cervical priming with misoprostol on cervical entry in women undergoing vaginoscopic hysteroscopy for evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding: a randomized controlled trial.

Objective: To study the effect of cervical priming with misoprostol on cervical entry in women undergoing diagnostic hysteroscopy for evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding.

Methods: Randomized controlled trial conducted in teaching hospital and tertiary referral center on 122 women requiring diagnostic hysteroscopy for evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding. Women were randomized into two equal groups (n = 122).
