Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent)
November 2024
Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, NYC/H+H - South Brooklyn Health, Brooklyn, New York, USA.
Background: Risk assessment tools are used by clinicians to predict which patients might have excessive bleeding. We studied the association between a peripartum hemorrhage risk assessment score using peripartum quantified blood loss (QBL) among those with vaginal deliveries who are often at lower risk for peripartum hemorrhage.
Methods: In this retrospective analysis of 1221 patients with term vaginal deliveries at a public New York City hospital, the Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWOHNN) risk assessment tool was used to categorize patients as low risk, medium risk, or high risk for postpartum hemorrhage.
Obesity and postpartum hospital use among individuals without additional medical comorbidities.
Obesity (Silver Spring)
January 2025
Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Objective: The objective of this study was to examine whether obesity without preexisting or gestational comorbidities is associated with postpartum hospital use (PHU).
Methods: We studied 2016 to 2018 birth certificate and discharge data on 178,729 New York City births without International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) codes at delivery for diabetes; hypertension; placental disease; anemia; thyrotoxicosis; bariatric surgery; and pulmonary, cardiac, renal, bleeding, autoimmune, digestive, neuromuscular, mental, or substance-use disorders. We defined PHU as ≥1 readmission or emergency department visit within 30 days of delivery discharge.
