Objective:  Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is a term used to describe trophoblast invasion into the uterine wall. The condition can be FATAL: at labor due to a lack of spontaneous separation of the placenta from the uterine wall, leading to severe hemorrhage. In this study, we aim to evaluate preoperative risk factors for unplanned immediate hysterectomy in PAS uterine-preserving surgeries.

Study Design:  Preoperative parameters of women who underwent successful uterine-preserving surgery were retrospectively compared with those who underwent an unplanned immediate hysterectomy during these surgeries. A multivariable regression analysis was conducted to identify independent factors associated with unplanned immediate hysterectomy.

Results:  Overall, 238 were included in the study's cohort. A total of 86.2% underwent successful uterine-preserving surgery, and 13.8% underwent an unplanned immediate hysterectomy. The number of previous cesarean deliveries (CDs) and the proportion of women with grade 3 preoperative PAS was significantly lower among the successful uterine-preserving group. The proportion of preoperative ultrasound lacunae detection, the number of lacunae observed, loss of clear zone detection, the length of clear zone loss, the proportion of retroplacental hypervascularity, bridging vessels detection, and bladder involvement were significantly lower in the successful uterine-preserving group. In a multivariable regression analysis, the presence of lacunae and loss of clear zone were independently associated with unplanned cesarean hysterectomy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 3.18 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.11-11.6],  = 0.047, and aOR = 3.67 [95% CI: 1.3-13.2],  = 0.025, respectively].

Conclusion:  Preoperative assessment of the applicability of a uterine-preserving surgery may be performed using the ultrasound parameters reported in this study.

Key Points: · Applicability of a uterine-preserving surgery may be performed using sonographic parameters.. · Sonographic presence of lacunae is associated with an unplanned hysterectomy.. · Sonographic loss of clear zone is associated with an unplanned hysterectomy..

Importance: With disparate Black maternal health outcomes in the US and a steadily expanding non-US-born Black population, it is beneficial to investigate Black maternal health outcomes by country of origin.

Objective: To compare the prevalence of maternal morbidity and infant birth outcomes between US-born and non-US-born Black populations in the US.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study included all registered hospital births in the US from the 2021 National Vital Statistics Systems (NVSS) Natality Data.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to analyze the risk of maternal morbidity based on how pregnancies were achieved, focusing on various methods of medically assisted reproduction like fertility drugs, IUI, and ART.
  • Data from Utah's birth certificates (2009-2017) showed that 4.8% of pregnancies were from assisted reproduction, with maternal morbidity defined by complications like blood transfusions and ICU admissions.
  • Results indicated higher maternal morbidity risks for those using assisted reproduction, particularly with ART and autologous oocytes, although these risks decreased when controlling for factors like multiple pregnancies and existing health issues.

While neonatal morbidities associated with early preterm birth are known, the risks of maternal morbidities in these births remain unclear. Thus, we set out to assess the risk of maternal morbidities associated with early preterm births. Retrospective cohort study utilizing the United States (US) Natality Live Birth database from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2016-2021).

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) presents a significant risk of maternal morbidity and mortality, in large part due to the potential for massive hemorrhage at time of delivery. Recently, multiple gestations have been shown to be an independent risk factor for PAS, especially in the setting of other major risk factors. Importantly, antenatal detection of PAS in twin pregnancies has been shown to be suboptimal when compared to singleton pregnancies.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the relationship between increased body mass index (BMI) with severe maternal morbidity (SMM).

Study Design: We obtained data for a retrospective cohort of singleton live births using an electronic birth certificate database from 2010 to 2022 in Central New York. Institutional review board exemption was obtained.
