Background: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) infection is the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. This study aims to investigate the incidence of invasive GBS disease among infants less than 90 days old in Oman and to describe their risk factors, clinical presentations and clinical outcomes.
Methods: We retrospectively collected the data of less than 90-day-old Omani infants with culture-positive GBS from sterile samples.
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of COVID-19 severity on maternal, perinatal, and neonatal outcomes in pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2. We also aimed to assess the effect of medical comorbidities on the severity of COVID-19.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on women who became infected with SARS-CoV-2 during pregnancy and delivered at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Oman, from 1 March 2020 to 31 December 2021.
Objectives: This study was conducted to assess pregnancy outcomes in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Oman.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study of 149 pregnancies in 98 women with SLE was conducted over 10 years to evaluate the impact of clinical and laboratory parameters in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes.
Results: Mean maternal age was 30.
Aim: To compare obstetric and perinatal outcomes of early and late teenage pregnancies of Omani nulliparous women with singleton pregnancies cared for and delivered at a tertiary teaching hospital.
Method: In this retrospective study, we reviewed obstetric and perinatal outcomes of early teenage pregnancies (14-16 years), (n = 20) delivered at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman, between 1 July 2006 and 30 June 2013 and compared their outcomes with outcomes of late teenage pregnancies (17-19 years), (n = 287) delivered at the same hospital during same period.
Results: When compared with late teenage pregnant women, early teenagers were found to have no significant differences in prevalence of very preterm delivery <32 weeks (P = 0.
Objective: To study the obstetrical and perinatal outcomes of teenage Omani girls with singleton pregnancies at a tertiary teaching hospital.
Methods: This is a retrospective case control study. We reviewed obstetric and perinatal outcomes of teenage nulliparous pregnant Omani girls with singleton pregnancies aged 14 to 19 years, delivered at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, between 1 July 2006 and 30 June 2013.
Objective: To determine the risk factors predisposing to fetal macrosomia and assess the maternal and perinatal outcome in these patients.
Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of all macrosomic deliveries in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Sultanate of Oman, during a 3-year period from January 2001 -- December 2003. The maternal and neonatal records of infants with birth weight of > or =4000 g (n=275) were reviewed.
