Objectives To estimate the incidence of maternal morbidity during labour and puerperium in rural homes, association with perinatal outcome proportion women needing medical attention. Design Prospective observational study nested a neonatal care trial. Setting Thirty‐nine villages Gadchiroli district, Maharashtra, India. Sample Seven hundred seventy‐two recruited over one year period (1995–1996) followed up from seventh month pregnancy to 28 days postpartum (up 10 visits total). Methods...
During the COVID-19 pandemic, rapid integration of telehealth into antenatal care occurred to support ongoing maternity care. A programme this scale had not been previously implemented. We evaluated whether telehealth-integrated in an Australian public health system could achieve pregnancy outcomes comparable those conventional assess its safety and efficacy.Routinely collected data for individuals who gave birth at Monash Health (Melbourne, VIC, Australia) during a period (Jan 1, 2018,...
Background: Sepsis, meningitis and pneumonia annually kill 1.1 million neonates in developing countries; most deaths occur at home. Objectives: To develop simple clinical criteria, enabling health workers communities to identify with potentially fatal sepsis; the danger signs alerting mothers seek care. Methods: In a field trial 39 villages Gadchiroli, India, trained visited all home 8 times during first 28 days of life, recording outcome without interventions 1995–1996 home-based management...
Maternal diaphragmatic hernias identified during pregnancy are rare and pose significant management challenges with regards to timing mode of both delivery hernia repair. We describe a case maternal diagnosed at 31 weeks gestation in the setting acute upper abdominal pain. Due no evidence visceral compromise stable condition, patient was conservatively managed, allowing for further foetal maturation. Delivery by caesarean section occurred following concerns malnutrition partial bowel...
To assess the performance of placental, fetal and maternal cardiovascular markers in prediction adverse perinatal outcomes women with suspected or confirmed pre-eclampsia.
The objective of this study was to assess the performance antenatal ultrasound markers in detecting neonatal coarctation aorta (CoA).We performed a retrospective including fetuses with suspected CoA and no other cardiac abnormalities. Data obtained from ultrasounds included subjective assessment ventricular arterial asymmetry, appearance aortic arch, presence persistent left superior vena cava, Z-score measurements mitral, tricuspid, (AV), pulmonary (PV) valves. Performance predicting...
Maternal ethnicity is a recognized risk factor for stillbirth, such that South Asian women have higher rates than their Caucasian counterparts. However, whether maternal intrapartum outcomes less clear. The aim of this study to explore associations between country birth, operative vaginal delivery and emergency cesarean section, identify possible mechanisms underlying any associations.We performed retrospective cohort singleton term births among Asian, East/East Australian/New Zealand born...
Preterm birth is a major cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. In many countries, the preterm rate in women with multiple pregnancy increasing, mostly due to an increase iatrogenic birth.To investigate trends twin pregnancies Victoria, Australia, relation maternal complications.We conducted retrospective population-based cohort study all who delivered at or after 20 weeks gestation state Australia between 2007 2017. Annual spontaneous rates were calculated analysed. Incidence...
Objectives The acrania‐anencephaly sequence is a lethal condition with high detection rate in experienced hands after 10 weeks’ gestation. However, earlier gestation, many cases remain undetected. Different phenotypic appearances have been described and might help increase the less also purpose of this study was to assess interobserver reliability classifying during first trimester 6 different subtypes according their ultrasound appearances. Methods This retrospective descriptive cohort at 3...
Pre-eclampsia is associated with postnatal cardiac dysfunction; however, the nature of this relationship remains uncertain. This multicentre retrospective cohort study aimed to determine prevalence pre-eclampsia in women pre-existing dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction < 55%) and explore between pregnancy outcome pre-pregnancy phenotype. In 282 pregnancies, was not significantly increased (4.6% [95% C.I 2.2-7.0%] vs. population 4.6% C.I. 2.7-8.2], p = 0.99); 12/13 had concurrent...
