Objective This study aimed to (1) determine what degree prenatal care was able be transitioned telehealth at practices associated with two affiliated hospitals in New York City during the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and (2) describe providers' experience this transition. Study Design Trends whether visits were conducted in-person or via analyzed by week for a 5-week period from March 9 April 12 Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC)-affiliated COVID-19...
In early-onset severe hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN), transplacental transfer maternal antierythrocyte IgG alloantibodies causes fetal anemia that leads to use high-risk intrauterine transfusions in order avoid hydrops death. Nipocalimab, an anti-neonatal Fc receptor blocker, inhibits lowers levels.
It is unclear whether using fetal electrocardiographic (ECG) ST-segment analysis as an adjunct to conventional intrapartum electronic heart-rate monitoring modifies and neonatal outcomes. We performed a multicenter trial in which women with singleton fetus who were attempting vaginal delivery at more than 36 weeks of gestation had cervical dilation 2 7 cm randomly assigned "open" or "masked" analysis. The masked system functioned normal monitor. open displayed additional information for use...
Importance Early anhydramnios during pregnancy, resulting from fetal bilateral renal agenesis, causes lethal pulmonary hypoplasia in neonates. Restoring amniotic fluid via serial amnioinfusions may promote lung development, enabling survival. Objective To assess neonatal outcomes of initiated before 26 weeks’ gestation to mitigate hypoplasia. Design, Setting, and Participants Prospective, nonrandomized clinical trial conducted at 9 US therapy centers between December 2018 July 2022. Outcomes...
In 2005, the Food and Drug Administration approved use of fetal electrocardiographic (ECG) ST-segment analysis (STAN) as an adjunct to conventional electronic heart rate monitoring. However, evidence that such monitoring reduces rates neonatal encephalopathy, acidemia, operative delivery is lacking. This study assesses effects using ECG STAN on perinatal outcomes. For this trial, women with a singleton fetus at more than 36 weeks gestation planning for vaginal cervical dilation 2 7 cm were...
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> To identify the molecular basis for prenatally suspected cases of megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS) (MIM 249210) in 3 independent families with clinical and radiographic evidence MMIHS. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Whole-exome sequencing (WES) Sanger ACTG2 gene. <b><i>Results:</i></b> We identified a novel heterozygous de novo missense variant <i>ACTG2</i>...
(Abstracted from N Engl J Med 2024;391:526–537) Severe hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) is result a transplacental transfer maternal IgG alloantibodies, which can cause fetal anemia. Early-onset severe HDFN occurs at ≤24 weeks gestation.
This study aimed to assess the treatment preferences of Japanese patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) by quantifying their trade-offs between attributes using a discrete choice experiment (DCE). A DCE was conducted among MIBC post-radical cystectomy. Participants were presented hypothetical options differing in such as efficacy Disease-free survival (DFS), side effects, administration, and cost. Preference data analyzed determine each attribute's relative importance (RI),...
Prenatal repair of myelomeningocele (MMC) improves fetal outcomes; however, open uterine surgery has associated morbidities. We report our institutional outcomes following laparotomy-assisted fetoscopic MMC repair. A prospective observational study, including a 1-year follow-up period, was conducted from April 2018 to March 2024. Similar study considerations the 2011 Management Myelomeningocele Study (MOMS) and 2019 MOMS Plus were applied. Laparotomy-assisted utilized an extended...
Abstract Introduction De novo postpartum hypertension (dnPPHTN), defined as new‐onset high blood pressure (BP) after delivery in individuals who were normotensive through pregnancy and delivery, accounts for up to two‐thirds of cases. Despite its prevalence, there is limited knowledge BP trends the period, hindering opportunities early detection timely intervention dnPPHTN. This study aimed characterize longitudinal patterns patients at risk Methods secondary analysis utilized data from a...
Congenital chylothorax is a rare and often severe anomaly without well-established medical therapies. Previously, propranolol use in patients with lymphatic malformations secondary was associated improvement clinical signs. We hypothesized that treatment would be beneficial for congenital chylothorax. reviewed records of neonates born from 2015 to 2019 at our tertiary center prenatal diagnosis whom either or postnatal therapy initiated. Inclusion limited fetuses diagnosed significant...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance a sonographic measurement fetal asymmetry, abdominal diameter minus biparietal (AD - BPD), in prediction shoulder dystocia (SD) patient population that unselected for diabetes mellitus (DM) status.Patients who underwent estimations biometric measurements within 14 days vaginally delivered live-born singleton neonates weighing 3400 g or greater at tertiary care institution were included retrospective cohort. mean AD BPD retrospectively...
Abstract Objective Fetal head and neck masses can result in critical airway obstruction. Our study aimed to evaluate prenatal factors associated with the decision for a definitive airway, including ex‐utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT), at birth among at‐risk fetuses. Methods A single‐institution retrospective review evaluated all fetal prenatally diagnosed from 2005 2023. The primary outcome was birth, intubation, tracheostomy, or EXIT. Results Thirty four patients were included, 23...
