Article Synopsis
- About 15% of women in developed countries are exposed to solvents at work during pregnancy, but the effects on fetal growth vary based on the type of solvent (oxygenated, petroleum, chlorinated).
- The study aims to explore how maternal exposure to different solvent families during pregnancy impacts the risk of neonatal outcomes, such as being small for gestational age (SGA) or having low birthweight.
- Results indicate that exposure to petroleum and oxygenated solvents is linked to a higher risk of SGA and lower birth weights and head circumferences, highlighting potential risks of specific solvent types during pregnancy.
Objective: The objective was to assess the predictive value of head-perineum distance measured at the initiation of the active second stage of labor on the mode of delivery.
Material And Methods: It was a prospective cohort study in an academic Hospital of Rennes, France, from July 1, 2020 to April 4, 2021 including 286 full-term parturients who gave birth to a newborn in cephalic presentation. A double-blind ultrasound measurement of the head-perineum distance was performed during the second phase of labor within five minutes after the onset of pushing efforts.
