Article Synopsis
  • A study examined cardiorespiratory events (CREs) in healthy term newborns during early skin-to-skin contact after birth, finding that 66.5% experienced at least one CRE, marked by low oxygen saturation or abnormal heart rates.
  • Factors increasing the risk of CREs included maternal age of 35 or older, being a first-time mother, a gestational BMI over 25, and births occurring at night.
  • Identifying these risk factors allows healthcare providers to monitor at-risk newborns more closely during early skin-to-skin contact, improving care and outcomes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to assess the annual healthcare costs related to obstetric events in women with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (like psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis) from the perspective of the National Healthcare System.
  • A detailed cost-analysis was done to estimate expenses during fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum care, using validated parameters and relevant costs from national databases.
  • Results showed significant costs associated with various complications; for instance, pregnancies complicated by conditions like preeclampsia and premature births led to extremely high hospital expenses, highlighting the economic impact of these health issues and the need for tailored treatments and monitoring.*

Introduction: Early skin-to-skin contact (ESSC) is associated with rare, sudden, unexpected postnatal collapse episodes. Placing the newborn in ESSC closer to an upright position may reduce the risk of airway obstruction and improve respiratory mechanics. This study assessed whether a greater inclination of the mother's bed during ESSC would reduce the proportion of healthy term newborns (HTNs) who experienced episodes of pulse oximeter saturation (SpO2) <91%.

Objective: To estimate the annual cost associated with obstetric events in women of reproductive age with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, from the perspective of the National Healthcare System.

Methods: A cost-analysis was developed to estimate the impact associated with obstetric events in women of reproductive age with psoriasis (PSO), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). The analysis considered complications during fertility and conception, in pregnancy and in the postpartum.

Article Synopsis
  • Early skin-to-skin contact (SSC) between mothers and newborns is beneficial but has been linked to potentially life-threatening events, prompting a study on whether a mother's bed angle affects newborn's breathing issues.
  • The research is a randomized trial involving full-term mother-newborn pairs across ten Spanish hospitals, comparing outcomes between two bed inclines (45° vs. 15°) for over 5,800 participants.
  • The primary focus is on monitoring oxygen saturation and heart rate in newborns to identify how bed inclination impacts breathing and heart-related episodes during SSC.
