Objective: To determine whether deferred cord clamping (DCC) compared with early cord clamping (ECC) was associated with reduction in death and/or severe neurologic injury among twins born at <30 weeks of gestation.
Study Design: We performed a retrospective cohort study including all liveborn twins of <30 weeks admitted to a tertiary-level neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Canada between 2015 and 2018 using the Canadian Neonatal/Preterm Birth Network database. We compared DCC ≥30 seconds vs ECC <30 seconds.
Objectives: Early excess gestational weight gain (GWG) has been examined as a predictor of total excess GWG in a few international studies; however, Canadian data are lacking. We sought to determine whether early (first- and second-trimester) excess GWG predicted total excess GWG.
Methods: We conducted an a priori planned secondary analysis of a multicentre prospective study of English-speaking Ontario women with a singleton pregnancy between 8 and 20 weeks gestation.
Objectives: The most effective preterm birth (PTB) intervention is unknown for women who are at risk of PTB due to a history of conization. The objective of this systematic review was to determine whether PTB interventions, progesterone, cerclage, and pessary decrease the risk of PTB compared to no treatment in singleton-and separately in twin-pregnancies of women with history of conization.
Methods: We searched Cochrane Central, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and ClinicalTrials.
Background: Given the controversy around mode of delivery, our objective was to assess the evidence regarding the safest mode of delivery for actively resuscitated extremely preterm cephalic/non-cephalic twin pairs before 28 weeks of gestation.
Methods: We searched Cochrane CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE and http://clinicaltrials.gov from January 1994 to January 2017.
