The study aimed to assess the level of awareness and knowledge contraception among women in Singapore, identify factors that influence choice.We conducted a cross-sectional survey 259 female patients, aged 21-49 years, who attended Obstetrics Gynaecology Clinic at National University Hospital, Singapore. An original questionnaire on nine contraceptive methods was used. Respondents had ≥ 2 correct answers for method (out four questions) were considered have good method. Participants asked...
BACKGROUND: This trial aimed to assess the efficacy, acceptability, and safety of a first-trimester screen-and-prevent strategy for preterm preeclampsia in Asia. METHODS: Between August 1, 2019, February 28, 2022, this multicenter stepped wedge cluster randomized included maternity/diagnostic units from 10 regions The started with period where all recruiting centers provided routine antenatal care without study-related intervention. At regular 6-week intervals, one was transit...
To compare knowledge acquisition and domain-specific feedback between virtual reality (VR) mannequin-based simulation for teaching medical students normal vaginal delivery (NVD). We conducted a cluster randomized crossover study comparing novel in-house-developed NVD VR simulator utilizing an Oculus® Quest 2 HMD with the PROMPT Flex® mannequin. randomly assigned student clinical groups to either or mannequin simulation. Participants took 11-item quiz before after their first crossing over...
study question: Will the use of levonorgestrel (LNG) 1.5 mg taken at each day coitus by women who have relatively infrequent sex be an efficacious, safe and acceptable contraceptive method?summary answer: Typical LNG pericoitally, before or within 24 h sexual intercourse, provides efficacy up to 11.0 pregnancies per 100 women-years (W-Y) in primary evaluable population 7.1 W-Y population.what is known already: effective emergency contraception following unprotected intercourse.Some users...
Advancements in Virtual Reality (VR) technology have opened new frontiers medical education, igniting interest among educators to incorporate it into mainstream curriculum, complementing traditional training modalities such as manikin training. Despite numerous VR simulators on the market, their uptake education remains limited. This paper explores acceptability and educational effectiveness of context vaginal childbirth delivery training, with simulator providing a walkthrough for second...
Fetoscopic laser coagulation of arterio-venous anastomoses (AVA) in a monochorionic placenta is the standard care for twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), but technically challenging and can lead to significant complications. Acquiring maintaining necessary surgical skills require consistent practice, critical caseload, time. Training on realistic simulators potentially shorten this steep learning curve enables several proceduralists acquire procedure-specific simultaneously. Here we...
INTRODUCTION Management of complicated monochorionic twins and certain intrauterine structural anomalies is a pressing challenge in communities that still lack advanced fetal therapy.We describe our efforts to rapidly initiate selective feticide using radiofrequency ablation (RFA) fetoscopic laser photocoagulation (SFLP) for twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), present the latter as potential model aspiring therapy units.METHODS Five pregnancies with complications were identifi ed...
Abstract Background Poor knowledge and the lack of deliberation have been cited as reasons for women making uninformed choices about aneuploidy screening. Adequate pre‐test counselling is particular importance where non‐invasive prenatal screening (NIPS) being increasingly offered a primary test. Design Women attending antenatal clinic with singleton pregnancy below 14 weeks were randomised to receive routine or intervention—a 16‐min educational video on before their consult. The outcome,...

ConclusionsThe rate of acceptability Copper-T 380A was low in our set up although it is a safe, highly effective, long acting reversible IUCD with few side effects and no major complication.The feasibility accepting PPIUCD insertion can be increased more antenatal counseling, motivation institutional management.
A 23-year-old woman, gravida 2 para 0, presented at 8 weeks gestation with a spontaneously conceived triplet cornual ectopic pregnancy. She was high risk of pregnancy as she had been previously treated for pelvic inflammatory disease and also undergone laparoscopic salpingostomy right-sided clinically stable her abdomen soft non-tender. The diagnosis made on transvaginal ultrasound scan this confirmed the three-dimensional scan. counselled about treatment options subsequently underwent...

A woman’s chances of having a child with Down syndrome increases age. By age 40, the risk conceiving is about 1 in 100. We report rare case dizygotic dichorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy conceived via vitro fertilisation, both twins trisomy 21. Both fetuses were independently detected to be at high autosomal trisomy, initially first-trimester screening and subsequently invasive definitive diagnostic tests (ie, chorionic villus sampling amniocentesis). Diagnosis 21 has made initial...
The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics recommended that all pregnant women be offered non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) regardless the patient's risk profile. 1 With increasing NIPT uptake, encounters with genetic conditions other than 3 common fetal trisomies are becoming prevalent.We report 2 cases mosaicisms for chromosomes 13 22, respectively.Case 1.The patient was 37 years old opted at 12 weeks (w).Cell-free DNA from maternal plasma extracted subsequent low-pass whole...
