Abstract:

Backgound: Fetal malposition in labour is a major risk factor for both caesarean section and instrumental delivery. Manual rotation, in the second stage of labour, represents one promising method of reducing operative delivery. Objectives: To review the literature on the efficacy of manual rotation for fetal malposition in the second stage of labour, assess current clinical practice and explore the feasibility of undertaking a randomised controlled trial of prophylactic manual rotation for reducing operative delivery. Methodology Meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCT) using Cochra

Abstract:

Gestational diabetes (GDM) is a potentially serious disorder requiring timely diagnosis and management to prevent adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Of increasing concern today, when treating the woman with GDM, is the need to provide every woman with an intensive management plan to optimise the likelihood of favourable pregnancy outcomes. Early identification of those women with GDM who require insulin therapy in addition to diet therapy would be beneficial in the planning and standardisation of clinical management protocols, to enhance pregnancy outcomes and increase cost benefits with imp

Abstract:

Fetal position throughout labour exerts considerable influence on labour and delivery, with a mal-positioned fetus during active labour known to contribute towards fetal and maternal morbidity. In response there is a move towards promoting the Left Occipito-Anterior (LOA) position at labour onset as optimal. It is thought that the LOA position encourages anterior rotation thus reducing the likelihood of mal-rotation. A systematic review was undertaken which highlighted an absence of scientific evidence. A prospective cohort study was therefore conducted with 1250 nulliparous women who were sca

Abstract:

Introduction: Induction of labour is commonly performed in clinical practice. Increasing rates of induction of labour worldwide has led to debate on whether elective induction improves the outcomes or simply leads to increased complications and healthcare costs. Maternal and neonatal complications and increased caesarean section (CS) rates associated with induction of labour are related to a variety of factors influencing the methods of induction. Misoprostol has been the drug of choice for induction of labour in developing countries for almost a decade. Different misoprostol regimens are used

Abstract:

Maternal obesity has implications on the health of future generations by early life programming. The mother is usually the main source of nutrients for the fetus and neonate, hence her nutritional status is crucial for child development. Fatty acids (FAs), especially long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs), are key nutrients in fetal growth and development. Since these nutrients are known to be altered by conditions such as obesity, maternal obesity could impair fetal/neonatal FA supply, and consequently child outcomes.

Pregestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including increased caesarean section rates, macrosomia, and perinatal mortality. Despite the high prevalence of GDM and PGDM in the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR), most of the published studies examining the association between GDM/PGDM and adverse pregnancy outcomes have small sample sizes, low statistical power, and few adverse outcomes with conflicting results. The purpose of this study was to determine the association of GDM/PGDM with adverse pregnancy outcome

The adverse effects of maternal smoking on infant mortality and morbidity has been well documented in the literature. Maternal tobacco use is causally associated with fetal growth restriction and correlates negatively with folate intake and metabolism.

Furthermore, despite evidence of a causal association between smoking in pregnancy and intrauterine growth restriction, and a plausible relationship betwee

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is a term used to indicate the range of conditions that can arise from prenatal exposure to alcohol.

Additionally, children with FASD often experience significant behavioural difficulties that impact on their functioning at home, school, and in community settings.

AIM: Subsequent pregnancies (SSPs) in patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) have a high risk of heart failure relapse. We report on outcome of SSPs in PPCM patients in South Africa. METHODS AND RESULTS: Of the 18 PPCM patients with a SSP, 3 patients died within 6-months follow-up. Overall relapse rate, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50% or death after at least 6 months follow-up, was 30%, with 16% (3/18) mortality. Persistently reduced LVEF (<50%) before entering SSP was present in 44% of patients, while full recovery (LVEF≥ 50%) was present in 85%. Persistently reduced LV

Abstract:

Most risk factors leading to cardiovascular disease are already present in childhood and the importance of early identification of pediatric cardiovascular risk factors is now well recognized. Hypertension in the child has been associated with substantial long-term health risks and considered an indication for lifestyle modifications. Current clinical guidelines contemplate screening for hypertension in children over 3 years of age, in order to provide strategies for promoting cardiovascular health, which can be integrated into comprehensive pediatric care. Interventions in the IUGR group coul

Abstract:

Currently there is no test to accurately predict stillbirth. It is proposed that better identification of placental disease in utero may aid stillbirth prediction and prevention. Pregnancies complicated by reduced fetal movement (RFM) have increased risk of stillbirth. We hypothesised that RFM is a symptom of placental dysfunction associated with adverse pregnancy outcome (APO) and that this placental abnormality can be detected antenatally and used to identify fetuses at highest-risk of APO. We tested this hypothesis by: 1) comparison of ex vivo placental structure and function between APO RF
