  • The study aimed to explore the factors that contribute to intrapartum fever among women receiving epidural labor analgesia, analyzing 410 parturients over a two-year period.
  • It found that 22% of participants experienced intrapartum fever, with maternal age, parity, oxytocin use, and timing of analgesia linked to higher risks; notably, the timing of analgesia and levels of amniotic fluid contamination were identified as independent risk factors.
  • Additionally, while intrapartum fever increased the likelihood of neonatal fever shortly after birth, it did not significantly impact other neonatal health outcomes.

Methods: Eighty pregnant women with placenta previa treated in our hospital were enrolled for prenatal assessment of CL and PT, and were grouped as CL ≤ 30 mm (n=32) and CL > 30 mm (n=48) groups and PT ≥ 10 mm (n=34) and PT < 10 mm (n=46) groups, respectively. The pregnancy and perinatal outcomes were compared in different groups.
