Neonatal outcomes between trial of labor and cesarean delivery for extreme preterm infants.
Int J Gynaecol Obstet
December 2024
Objective: To compare adverse neonatal outcomes between trial of vaginal delivery and upfront cesarean delivery for singleton infants born at 24 to 28 weeks of gestation.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study that was conducted at a university-affiliated tertiary medical center between 2011 and 2022, involving singleton pregnancies delivered between 24 and 27 weeks of gestation. Participants were divided into two groups based on their intended mode of delivery: a trial of labor (TOL) group and an upfront cesarean delivery (CD) group.
Article Synopsis
- This study examined the outcomes of 185 pregnant women who had appendectomies, comparing them to 555 who did not undergo surgery, focusing on clinical, obstetrical, and neonatal results from 2005 to 2022.
- The majority of the appendectomies were laparoscopic, with 76.2% of cases showing an inflamed appendix; however, preterm delivery was significantly higher in the appendectomy group (11.9%) compared to the control group (5.4%).
- The analysis indicated that having an appendectomy, especially if it was a negative appendectomy, was a significant risk factor for preterm birth, highlighting the need for careful
Objective: The increasing rate of cesarean sections (CSs) raises concerns over severe intra-abdominal adhesions, which are associated with numerous complications. We aimed to identify risk factors and predictive tools for severe adhesions.
Design: A prospective study was conducted.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify risk factors and create a predictive model for cesarean deliveries during labor in women with obesity.
- Researchers analyzed data from 5,663 women with a BMI of 30 or higher, finding that 7.5% ended up having a cesarean delivery.
- Key risk factors included age over 35, higher pre-gestational BMI, nulliparity, and certain medical interventions, with the predictive model showing 85% sensitivity and 70% specificity for predicting cesarean needs.
Introduction: To evaluate the effectiveness of paracetamol and ibuprofen as non-opioid treatments for postpartum pain control after vaginal delivery.
Materials And Methods: This randomized controlled study at a university-affiliated medical center involved parturient who received blindly oral tablets of either 1000 mg of paracetamol or 400 mg of ibuprofen, post-vaginal birth. Pain levels were assessed using a numeric rating scale (NRS) at four time points: before treatment, and 1, 4, and 6 h post-treatment (T0, T1, T4, and T6, respectively).
