{"title":"The Effect of Third Trimester Corticosteroid Therapy on Fetal Doppler Velocimetry in Gestational Hypertension Complicated By Intrauterine Growth Restriction","authors":"Hany Maged Abd El Aal, D. Hassan","doi":"10.26502/ogr018","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.26502/ogr018","url":null,"abstract":"Background Althouh there is a great advance in antenatal care, gestational hypertension still one of the major reasons of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. For this reason, early screening of gestational hypertension and fetal growth retardation can permit cautious antenatal monitoring and proper timing of delivery to steer clear of serious complications. Patient and Methods This is a prospective study that included 100 singleton pregnant women with gestational hypertension and complicated with IUGR fetuses who were divided into 2 groups (A and B), each group consists of 50 patients: All patients in group A subjected to fetal Doppler flow indices measurement before corticosteroid administration, and repeated within five days after its administration. Its effect on fetal outcome detected after termination of pregnancy. While women in group B included 50 patients who did not receive corticosteroid therapy. Fetal Doppler flow indices was measured, and after termination of pregnancy effect on fetal outcome was detected as well.  Results There was statistically significant difference between the study group after corticosteroid administration and the control group regarding the mean Doppler indices in the form of (MCA PI-RI, UMA PI-RI and CPR).  MCA shows higher values in study group after corticosteroid administration than the control group (PI 1.52 ± 0.10 and 1.5 ± 0.18 and RI from 0.78 ± 0.12 to 0.76 ± 0.02. While UMA shows lower values in study group after corticosteroid administration than the control group (PI 1.31 ± 0.16 and 1.36 ± 0.08 and RI 0.72 ± 0.01 and 0.73 ± 0.02. CPR also shows higher values in study group after corticosteroid administration than the control group 1.05 ± 0.05 and 1.04 ± 0.05. Conclusion Corticosteroid administration to hypertensive women is associated with improvement of all Doppler indices in the form of elevation of MCA PI & RI and CPR value and decrease of UMA PI & RI values. Although corticosteroid administration was associated with all these Doppler indices enhancement but there was no associated improvement in the number of fetuses born suffering from tachypnea or admitted to NICU when compared to the other group of women who did not receive corticosteroids. Fetuses who was delivered not affected by tachypnea or not admitted to the NICU shows improvement in UMA PI & RI and CPR in comparison to those who were tachypnic and admitted to the NICU. AEDFV and REDFV signs of UMA are critical signs, usually associated with adverse fetal outcome or fetal compromise.","PeriodicalId":74336,"journal":{"name":"Obstetrics and gynecology research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69352632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The statistical analysis was done using the software: Microsoft Excel.  Results and discussion: Of 3468 deliveries recorded during the study period, 111 resulted in macrosomes, a macrosomia frequency of 3.2%. The highest incidence was observed among parturients in the 26-30 age group at 38.7%. Delivery occurred spontaneously vaginally in 30%, caesarean section in 20%, forceps 1.5%. Maternal complications were: perineal tears (2.2%), delivery hemorrhage (2.2%), cervical tears (0.5%). These complications are more frequent in case of non-prenatal monitoring of pregnant women.

Intra-uterine growth restricted fetuses (cases) and normal (controls) were examined for the umbilical artery. Time intervals between progressive Doppler abnormalities and configurations of worsening were related to umbilical artery Doppler status and gestational age. This study was conducted from August 2015 to January 2016 at Gilani Ultrasound Center Lahore Pakistan. A total of 60 pregnant females were studied with normal and abnormal umbilical artery Doppler ultrasound.  Results: Doppler indices measurements of umbilical artery in intra-uterine growth restriction fetuses in the third trimester showed higher values as compared to normal fetuses. 30 females had normal umbilical artery Doppler indices and waveforms and 30 females showed (either thinning, absent or reversed Diastolic flow Doppler waveform) with higher indices.

Results: Data from 262 women who attended our colposcopy clinic from December 2017 to November 2018 was analyzed. Our study showed that the volume of referrals had increased by 6-fold since the implementation of the new cervical screening program in Australia. HPV Other (non 16/18) had the highest prevalence among women referred and accounted for the highest number of high-grade referrals to our unit. Conclusion: 83.3% of referrals with HPV Other (non 16/18) had abnormal cytology. HPV Other appears to be the most pathogenic of all HPV subtypes.

{"title":"A Randomized Controlled Trial of Intravenous Paracetamol and Intravenous Tramadol for Labour Analgesia","authors":"N. Garg, Vanitha Vg","doi":"10.26502/ogr017","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.26502/ogr017","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Labour pain described as ‘the most horrible’ affects both physiological and psychological aspects of labour. Thus, the provision of labour analgesia is of paramount importance to better both maternal and neonatal outcomes. In our country, majority of obstetric services are in the hands of trained nurses and non-specialized doctors and thus awareness and acceptance of pain-relieving for women in labour virtually does not exist. Therefore, drugs like paracetamol and tramadol with advantage of easy availability, being inexpensive with no special technique of administration are a boon for labour analgesia. Objective: To compare the role of intravenous paracetamol versus intravenous tramadol as an intrapartum labour analgesic. Materials and methods: A total of 273 primigravidae with term gestation with singleton pregnancy with vertex presentation in active phase of labour with cervical dilatation ≥ 4cm with spontaneous onset of labour were taken who satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study. Group P (141 women) and Group T (132 women) received 100 ml intravenous infusion containing 1 gram of paracetamol single dose and 100 mg of tramadol hydrochloride diluted in 100 ml normal saline over 15 minutes respectively. Visual Analogue scale (VAS) was used to assess pain intensity, before administering drug, after 1 and 3 hours of drug administration. The primary outcomes measured were difference in VAS score in both groups. The secondary outcomes analysed were mode of delivery, duration of labour, drug-delivery interval, maternal side effects and neonatal outcomes in terms of birth weight, APGAR scores and NICU admissions. Results: The mean VAS score decreased significantly to a greater extent in group P than group T and showed a significant statistical difference among both the groups (p < 0.001). In both the groups, the difference in the VAS score was statistically significant (p<0.05). The duration of labour was statistically shorter in group P (p< 0.0001). The participants in group T had more incidence of maternal side-effects and 7 NICU admission than in paracetamol group. Conclusion: Intravenous paracetamol with better analgesic efficacy, shorter duration of labour and fewer maternal side effects is a more effective labour analgesic than tramadol.","PeriodicalId":74336,"journal":{"name":"Obstetrics and gynecology research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69352626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
