Abstract

Aim: The clinical profile of the disease in southern Nigeria is less reported. This study aims to describe the clinical characteristics and intra-hospital outcomes of PPCM in Ibadan, south-west Nigeria.

Materials and methods: We reviewed 69 cases of PPCM seen in Nigerian Women at the University College Hospital Ibadan between 2006 and 2021.

Results: The mean age at presentation was 30.5 ± 6.7 years (age range 18 - 46 years). The mean BMI was 23.5 kg/M². Most were from the low socio-economic group (47/68.1%) and presented postpartum. The majority were primipara; twin pregnancy was seen in four (5.8%), and PIH occurred in 10 (14.5%) cases. Heart failure was the most typical mode of presentation. Over 90% of the women had spontaneous vertex delivery. Fetal death was recorded in three (4.3%). Two women died. Both presented with severe heart failure and died within few days on admission.

Conclusion: PPCM in Ibadan, Nigeria, is relatively a disease of primipara from poor homes and in unbooked pregnant women. Improvement in maternal health will be invaluable in prevention of the condition in Nigeria.

尼日利亚伊巴丹围产期心肌病的临床概况和院内结局

目的：尼日利亚南部该病的临床概况报道较少。本研究旨在描述尼日利亚西南部伊巴丹PPCM的临床特征和院内结果。材料和方法：我们回顾了2006年至2021年间在伊巴丹大学学院医院的69例尼日利亚妇女PPCM。结果：平均发病年龄为30.5±6.7岁（年龄范围18 ~ 46岁）。平均BMI为23.5 kg/M2。大多数来自低社会经济群体（47/68.1%），产后出现。大多数是初产妇；双胎妊娠4例（5.8%），妊高征10例（14.5%）。心衰是最典型的表现形式。超过90%的妇女自发顶点分娩。3例胎儿死亡（4.3%）。两名妇女死亡。两人都表现出严重的心力衰竭，并在入院几天内死亡。结论：在尼日利亚伊巴丹，PPCM是贫困家庭初产妇和未预约孕妇的主要疾病。改善产妇保健对尼日利亚预防这一疾病具有不可估量的价值。图形化的简介:
