Perinatal outcomes in indian women with Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS): Five year experience from a tertiary care centre
Background
Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) is a systemic autoimmune thrombophilic condition characterized by obstetric manifestations, including pregnancy loss, preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction. Early diagnosis and management are key to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.
Objective
The aim of this study is to assess the perinatal outcomes in APS, the development of various adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO), and their association with specific antibody profiles.
Material methods
This observational study was carried out on booked cases of singleton pregnancy and diagnosed cases of primary APS in our High-Risk Pregnancy (HRP) clinic from January 2018 to December 2022 after approval from institutional ethics committee. Forty-three confirmed cases of primary APS were enrolled and started on low-dose aspirin and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) as per the patient's body weight after confirmation of fetal heart activity radiologically until 36 weeks of gestation as a standard of care.
Results
Forty patients (93 %) had obstetric APS, and three patients (7 %) had thrombotic APS. During the course of the current pregnancy, adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO) developed in 12 (30 %) out of 40 cases of obstetric APS and in all 3 patients with thrombotic APS. Preeclampsia was seen in 11 (25.5 %), FGR in 12 (27.9 %), and preterm birth in 7 (16.2 %) cases. Patients with an antibody profile showing the presence of Anti-β2 GP-I positivity and ACL positivity had fewer APOs (20 % and 29 %) in comparison to patients with a LA and triple positive antibody profile (55 % and 50 %).
Conclusion
Treatment of pregnant women with APS causes significant improvement in the live birth rate. The late pregnancy complications like preeclampsia, FGR, and premature birth, occurring despite treatment still remains a challenge and emphasizes the need for stringent antepartum surveillance and timely delivery.
