<h3>Importance</h3> Umbilical cord milking as an alternative to delayed umbilical clamping may provide equivalent benefits preterm infants, but without delaying resuscitation. <h3>Objective</h3> To determine whether the rates of death or severe intraventricular hemorrhage differ among infants receiving placental transfusion with vs clamping. <h3>Design, Setting, and Participants</h3> Noninferiority randomized clinical trial (born at 23-31 weeks' gestation) from 9 university private medical...
Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate pregnant women's attitudes toward COVID-19 illness and vaccination identify factors associated with vaccine acceptability. Study Design This a cross-sectional survey among women enrolled in prospective cohort Salt Lake City, UT, Birmingham, AL, New York, NY, from August 9 December 10, 2020. Women were eligible if they 18 50 years old <28 weeks gestation. Upon enrollment, completed surveys regarding concerns about likelihood getting one...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of administering postpartum heparin-based pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis on incidence venous thromboembolism (VTE) and complications. METHODS: This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study all individuals delivering at more than 20 weeks gestation four U.S. hospitals from 2016 to 2019. Individuals with personal history VTE or thrombophilia, an antepartum diagnosis VTE, receiving therapeutic anticoagulation were excluded. The exposure prophylaxis...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of an intrauterine vacuum-induced hemorrhage-control device for postpartum hemorrhage treatment. METHODS: A multicenter, prospective, single-arm treatment study a novel that uses low-level vacuum to induce uterine myometrial contraction achieve control abnormal bleeding was undertaken at 12 centers in United States. The primary endpoint proportion participants whom use controlled without requiring escalating interventions. incidence,...
OBJECTIVES To determine whether rate of severe intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) or death among preterm infants receiving placental transfusion with UCM is noninferior to delayed cord clamping (DCC). METHODS Noninferiority randomized controlled trial comparing versus DCC in born 28 32 weeks recruited between June 2017 through September 2022 from 19 university and private medical centers 4 countries. The primary outcome was Grade III/IV IVH evaluated at a 1% noninferiority margin. RESULTS...
In 2016, our institution adopted a pregnancy-related venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis protocol based on American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists guidelines that recommended postpartum heparin-based chemoprophylaxis (enoxaparin) risk-stratified algorithm. response to increased wound hematomas without significant reduction in VTE using this protocol, more selective approach was 2021.
It is now possible to manipulate the murine genome and produce transgenic mice in which genes encoding myocardial proteins have been ablated, resulting an altered performance. In this study, we quantitate performance work-performing mouse heart preparations from euthyroid, hypothyroid, hyperthyroid mice. Our results show that time peak pressure (TPP) half-relaxation (RT1/2), together with first derivatives of intraventricular (+/- dP/dt), are significant indicators quality quantity systolic...
To evaluate the feasibility of salpingectomy compared with standard bilateral tubal ligation at time cesarean delivery in women undesired fertility.
Importance Preterm birth (PTB) (gestational age &amp;lt;37 weeks) is a major cause of infant mortality and morbidity in the US marked by racial ethnic socioeconomic inequities. Further research needed to elucidate association risk protective factors with trends PTB rates related Objective To describe inequities as well over past decade population–based cohort. Design, Setting, Participants This retrospective cohort study singleton live births California from January 1, 2011, December 31,...
<b>Objective</b> This study aims to evaluate vaginal microbiota differences by bacterial vaginosis (BV), birth timing, and race, estimate parameters power future microbiome studies. <b>Methods</b> Previously, swabs were collected at 21 25 weeks (stored −80°C), smears evaluated for BV (Nugent criteria). In a blinded fashion, 40 samples selected, creating 8 equal-sized groups stratified race (black/white), (present/absent), timing (preterm/term). Samples thawed, DNA extracted, prepared....
In Brief Our findings suggest increased critical illness and adverse perinatal outcomes associated with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Delta variant in pregnancy.
To evaluate outcomes before and after implementation of a risk-stratified heparin-based obstetric thromboprophylaxis protocol.We performed retrospective cohort study all patients who delivered at our tertiary care center from 2013 to 2018. Deliveries were categorized as preprotocol (2013-2015; no standardized thromboprophylaxis) postprotocol (2016-2018). Patients receiving outpatient anticoagulation for active venous thromboembolism (VTE) or high VTE risk excluded. Coprimary effectiveness...
It has been reported that approximately 50% of invasive cervical malignancies are diagnosed in patients who have never screened and 10% the remaining cancer not had a Pap smear 5 years before diagnosis. We sought to determine whether this holds true among university-based gynecologic oncology patient population.After institutional review board approval, retrospective chart women group with from 2002 2007 was conducted. Patients' demographics, referral smear, method diagnosis, histology,...
To compare rates of preterm birth and pregnancy-related hypertension in women with without human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.We performed a retrospective cohort study all delivered at our institution 2013 who had cervical cancer screening test results within 3 years before delivery. Patients were excluded if they prior procedure(s) for dysplasia other than biopsy. There two primary outcomes: (less 37 weeks gestation) (gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, or eclampsia). Multivariable...
To assess whether outpatient cervical ripening with a transcervical Foley catheter in parous women undergoing elective induction of labor shortens the total duration time from admission to ward until delivery.We performed an open-label randomized controlled trial at single academic center 39 weeks gestation or greater cervix 3 cm less dilated, or, if 2-3 than 80% effaced and reassuring fetal heart rate monitoring (defined as moderate variability normal baseline absence decelerations)....
