Obstetric complications in maternal deaths related to AIDS

Venter, Berna 06 February 2009 (has links)
ABSTRACT Objectives: To determine what obstetric complications can be associated with end-stage AIDS and maternal death. Method: From 1990 to 2005 the maternal death files of patients with either AIDS-defining illnesses or CD4 counts of less than 200x106/ℓ were analyzed in a descriptive study. All patients died undelivered or within 42 days of delivery. Result: Sixty six percent (49/74) of pregnancies ended prematurely by preterm delivery or miscarriage. Twenty perinatal deaths occurred. The average birth weight was 1498g at an average gestational age of 30.5 weeks. The mean CD4 count was 45.5x106/ℓ. The majority of maternal deaths were caused by respiratory illnesses. Conclusion: Preterm ABSTRACT Objectives: To determine what obstetric complications can be associated with end-stage AIDS and maternal death.

The average birth weight was 1498g at an average gestational age of 30.5 weeks. The mean CD4 count was 45.5x106/ℓ. The majority of maternal deaths were caused by respiratory illnesses. Conclusion: Preterm labour and early pregnancy loss are common among terminally ill pregnant women with AIDS. It is proposed that hypoxia in the presence of respiratory disease could lead to cytokine production in the uterine cavity, leading to preterm delivery, even in the absence of intrauterine infection.

Methodological approach of the spatial distribution of maternal mortality in Burkina Faso and explanatory factors associated

Lougue, Siaka January 2013 (has links)
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / Maternal mortality is one of the most important problems related to the reproductive health. This is why the reduction by three quarters of maternal mortality by 2015 has been fixed as target No. 5 of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Achieving this goal requires an annual decline of 5.5% of maternal mortality between 1990 and 2015. Unfortunately, the reduction as estimated in 1997 was less than 1% per year. Africa is the continent most affected by this problem. In 2010, the number of maternal mortality in the world was estimated to 287 000 and Africa was hosting more than 52 % (148 000) of the occurrence in the world In Burkina Faso, maternal mortality ratio decreased from 566 in 1991 to 484 in 1998 and 341 in 2010 according to the DHS data while the census estimate was 307 in 2006 and United Nation agencies provided the number of 300 maternal deaths per 100 000 live births in 2010. Statistics provided by the different sources vary considerably. This situation creates confusion among data users. In addition, researches made on the issue remain very insufficient because of the complexity of the issue, lack of data and poor quality of existing data on maternal mortality. This study has been initiated to fill the gap of knowledge about the determinants and estimates of maternal mortality at national and sub-national levels. Results of this research highlighted explanatory factors of maternal mortality at national and regional level with a focus on factors of regional disparities. Findings also provided estimate by adjusting the census 2006 data from missingness and incoherences, improving the census method and testing different other methods. Finally, projection of maternal mortality level is made from 2006 to 2050.

Kvinnlig Könsstympning : Litteraturstudie om praktisk handläggning och komplikationsrisker vid förlossning

Byrskog, Ulrica, Eriksson, Eva, Sundell, Annica January 2005 (has links)
Today around 28 000 women originally from countries where FGM is practised, are living in Sweden. Many of them are at childbearing age which means that knowledge about FGM and its consequences is of outmost importance during delivery. The aim of this study is to describe current research on how to manage the delivery, regarding deinfibulation and the following stitching as well as the risk of complications when the labouring woman is mutilated. This review of literature is based on 12 scientific articles published between years 1989 – 2005. Five different databases have been searched with use of a large number of keywords.The review found that no scientific research has been carried out that describes how deinfibulation and following stitching should be managed when the woman is mutilated. All available articles within this area are referring to best practice only. The review also found that the conclusions of the studies are contradictory. The majority, however, show an increased frequency for prolonged labour that could be related to FGM. The three largest studies also show an increased rate of caesarean section among mutilated women. In the few studies that examine haemorrhage, the majorities show an increased tendency to bleed, that could be related to FGM. Several articles emphasize the importance of good routines for deinfibulation to reduce the risk for complications.In summary it can be established that due to methodological problems in many studies, no reliable conclusion can be made that the researched complications exists to a greater extent when the woman is mutilated

Gestantes usuárias do Sistema Único de Saúde no município de São Paulo: desfechos de uma coorte de dados secundários / Pregnant users of the Unified Health System in the city of São Paulo: outcomes of a cohort of secondary data

Moura, Bárbara Laisa Alves 10 March 2017 (has links)
Introdução: Apesar da melhoria dos indicadores da saúde materno infantil, os valores ainda são elevados, com a mortalidade neonatal respondendo pela mortalidade infantil e a mortalidade fetal pela perinatal. Apesar da melhoria da cobertura e qualidade dos dados dos sistemas de informação sobre nascidos vivos e mortalidade, esses não tem informação sobre a morbidade materna e do recém-nascido, disponíveis no Sistema de Informação Hospitalar do SUS e possíveis de serem vinculadas. Objetivo geral: Descrever e analisar o seguimento da gestação, do parto e dos desfechos dos nascimentos das gestantes usuárias do SUS residentes no município de São Paulo no período de 12/08/2011 a 27/01/2013. Objetivos específicos: Obter uma coorte de gestantes SUS com dados secundários. Identificar internações anteriores ao parto por complicações obstétricas, prevalência das gestações de alto risco, tipo de saída após o parto (alta, internação e uso de UTI e óbito materno) e tempo de permanência da internação do parto, no período de 12 de agosto de 2011 a 31 de dezembro de 2012. Caracterizar e estimar a razão de morte fetal e a mortalidade neonatal precoce dos nascidos vivos extraídos da coorte de gestantes SUS no município de São Paulo no período de 01 de junho de 2012 a 27 de janeiro de 2013. Identificar se há diferença da sobrevida dos óbitos neonatais segundo peso ao nascer e uso de UTI neonatal. Identificar potenciais fatores de risco para a mortalidade fetal e neonatal precoce para os nascimentos da coorte de gestante SUS. Metodologia: Tratou-se de um estudo do tipo coorte retrospectiva de população fixa das gestantes cujos nascimentos (nascido vivo e óbito fetal) ocorreram em hospitais da rede SUS no município de São Paulo no período de 01 de junho de 2012 a 31 de dezembro de 2012. Foram investigadas as internações e as readmissões hospitalares das gestantes atendidas nos hospitais SUS ocorridas no período de 12 de agosto de 2011 a dezembro de 2012. Como também, as internações dos recém-nascidos ocorridas no período de 01 de junho de 2012 a 27 de janeiro de 2013. Foram realizadas vinculações pelo método determinístico e probabilístico dos documentos base dos sistemas de informação em saúde (SIS). Foram conduzidas análises de regressão de Cox e regressão logística. Resultados: Foram vinculados 98,3 por cento das declarações de nascidos vivos (DNV) à autorização de internação hospitalar (AIH), 93,8 por cento dos óbitos fetais às AIHs, 93 por cento das AIHs dos recém-nascidos internados ao par anterior e 99,4 por cento dos óbitos neonatais a sequencia de eventos ditas anteriores. 4,3 por cento das gestantes foram internadas prévio ao parto por complicações obstétricas. Maior mortalidade neonatal, razão de morte fetal e internação dos RNs após o nascimento ocorreram em gestantes que internaram por complicações obstétricas. No estudo de sobrevida, houve aumento da sobrevida com o aumento do peso ao nascer. RNs internados em UTIN após o nascimento tiveram menor sobrevida que os RNs não internados. Os fatores de risco para a mortalidade neonatal foram: o número insuficiente de consulta de pré-natal, nascer em hospital de baixo volume de parto, prematuridade, baixo peso ao nascer, APGAR 5º < 7, presença de anomalia congênita e internação após o nascimento. Não realizar consulta de pré-natal, prematuridade extrema (<32 semanas), baixo peso ao nascer (<2499 gramas) e presença de malformação congênita foram fatores de risco comuns aos óbitos fetais e aos neonatais precoces. Raça/cor da mãe não branca e idade materna igual ou superior a 35 anos foram fatores de risco somente para os óbitos fetais. Nascimentos em hospitais com baixo e médio volume de parto foram associados à maior mortalidade neonatal precoce. Conclusão: Gestantes que apresentaram complicações obstétricas tiveram desfechos mais desfavoráveis da gestação, como internação pós-parto e mortalidade materna. Foi identificada também nesse grupo maior readmissão hospitalar dos RNs, maior prevalência de prematuridade e de baixo peso ao nascer, maior mortalidade fetal e neonatal. Internação na gestação e readmissão hospitalar do RN deve ser considerada como eventos sentinelas no monitoramento da assistência ao parto e ao recémnascido na população SUS. A concentração dos óbitos nos primeiros dias de vida refletem as fragilidades na assistência aos recém-nascidos, a gravidade das doenças dos recém-nascidos, as más condições de nascimento e a presença de malformações incompatíveis com a vida. Óbitos fetais e neonatais precoces são influenciados pelas mesmas características proximais dos recém-nascidos. Esforços devem ser direcionados para o aumento da adesão às consultas de pré-natal nas unidades básicas de saúde, com atenção especial para as gestantes não brancas / Introduction: Despite the improvement in maternal and child health indicators, values are still high, with neonatal mortality accounting for infant mortality and perinatal fetal mortality. Despite improved coverage and data quality of information systems on live births and mortality, these do not have information on maternal and newborn morbidity, available in the SUS Hospital Information System and possible to be linked. General objective: Describe and analyze the follow-up of gestation, delivery and outcomes of the births of pregnant women users of SUS residents in the city of São Paulo from August 12, 2011 to January 27, 2013. Specific objectives: Obtain a cohort of SUS pregnant women with secondary data. Identify hospitalizations prior to delivery for obstetric complications, prevalence of high-risk pregnancies, type of delivery after childbirth (discharge, hospitalization and use of ICU and maternal death) and length of hospital stay during the period of August 12, 2011 to December 31, 2012. Characterize and estimate the fetal death rate and early neonatal mortality of live births extracted from the cohort of pregnant women SUS in the city of São Paulo from June 1, 2012 to January 27, 2013. Identify if there is difference in survival of neonatal deaths according to birth weight and neonatal ICU use. Identify potential risk factors for early fetal and neonatal mortality for the births of the SUS pregnant cohort. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of the fixed population of pregnant women whose births (live birth and fetal death) occurred in hospitals of the SUS network in the city of São Paulo from June 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012. The hospitalizations and the hospital readmissions of the pregnant women attended in the SUS hospitals were investigated during the period from August 12, 2011 to December 2012. As well as the hospitalizations of the newborns that occurred in the period from June 1, 2012 to 27 Of January of 2013. Links were made through the deterministic and probabilistic method of the basic documents of the health information systems (SIS). Cox regression and logistic regression analyzes were performed. Results: 98.3 per cent of live birth certificates (DNV) were linked to hospital admission authorization (AIH), 93.8 per cent of fetal deaths to AIHs, 93 per cent of AIHs of newborns hospitalized at the previous pair, and 99, 4 per cent of neonatal deaths in the sequence of events mentioned above. 4.3 per cent of pregnant women were hospitalized prior to delivery due to obstetric complications. Higher neonatal mortality, fetal death rate and hospitalization of newborns after birth occurred in pregnant women hospitalized for obstetric complications. In the survival study, there was an increase in survival with an increase in birth weight. RNs hospitalized at the NICU after birth had lower survival rates than the non-hospitalized NB. The risk factors for neonatal mortality were: insufficient number of prenatal visits, hospital birth with low birth volume, prematurity, low birth weight, APGAR 5 <7, presence of congenital anomaly and hospitalization after birth. Preterm consultation, extreme prematurity (<32 weeks), low birth weight (<2499 grams) and presence of congenital malformation were common risk factors for fetal deaths and early neonatal deaths. Race / color of non-white mother and maternal age equal to or greater than 35 years were risk factors only for fetal deaths. Births in hospitals with low and medium volume of delivery were associated with higher preterm neonatal mortality. Conclusion: Pregnant women who presented obstetric complications had more unfavorable outcomes of pregnancy, such as postpartum hospitalization and maternal mortality. Also in this group, greater readmission of the newborns of the newborns, greater prevalence of prematurity and of low birth weight, greater fetal and neonatal mortality were also identified. Nursing admission and hospital readmission of the newborn should be considered as sentinel events in the monitoring of delivery care and the newborn in the SUS population. The concentration of deaths in the first days of life reflects weaknesses in the care of newborns, the severity of newborn diseases, poor birth conditions and the presence of malformations incompatible with life. Early fetal and neonatal deaths are influenced by the same proximal characteristics of newborns. Efforts should be directed towards increasing adherence to prenatal consultations in basic health units, with special attention to non-white women.

Déterminants et effets des trajectoires de stress prénatal sur les issues de la grossesse et la dépression postpartum / Determinants and effects of changes in prenatal stress on obstetric complications in childbirth and postpartum depression

Douteaud, Stéphanie 16 December 2014 (has links)
Introduction : En France, comme ailleurs, la prévalence de la dépression post-partum (DPP) (environ 10% des femmes) n'est pas plus importante que celle d'autres formes de dépression mais elle pose un important problème de dépistage car, les femmes consultent moins rendant difficile sa prévention. Les recherches visant à améliorer la prévention de la DPP s'appuient sur deux modèles principaux, le modèle de la vulnérabilité au stress et le modèle bio-psycho-social. L'un comme l'autre décrivent le stress psychologique prénatal comme étant un important déterminant de la DPP. Néanmoins, si le stress est fréquemment évalué, il n'est mesuré en général qu'une fois et tardivement dans la grossesse. Il n'est donc actuellement pas possible de connaître ni son évolution ni l'effet de cette évolution sur la DPP. En conséquence, un premier objectif de ce travail doctoral est d'identifier et de caractériser des trajectoires de stress afin d'évaluer leurs effets sur la DPP. Par ailleurs, certaines recherches montrent que les complications obstétricales lors de l'accouchement ont un effet délétère sur la santé psychologique des femmes en postpartum et d'autres que le stress prénatal augmente le risque de complications obstétricales. Nous faisons donc l'hypothèse qu'une élévation du stress associée à des complications obstétricales à l'accouchement augmente considérablement le risque de DPP, mais que cela diffère d'une femme à l'autre en fonction du niveau des déterminants du stress.Méthode : La santé des mères, leur trait d'anxiété et des variables socio-économiques ont été relevées chez 164 femmes avant la fin des deux premiers mois de la grossesse. Le stress perçu, l'état d'anxiété, le soutien social et les stratégies de coping ont été évalués à 2, 6 et 9 mois de grossesse pour 163 femmes puis à 1 et 6 mois postpartum pour 91 d'entre elles. Par ailleurs, les résultats du dépistage prénatal des pathologies fœtales, le terme de la grossesse, le poids de naissance du bébé, ses résultats à l'Apgar et le type d'accouchement (dystocique versus eutocique) ont également été relevés. Enfin, la mesure de la DPP a été effectuée 6 mois après l'accouchement. Nous avons calculé des trajectoires individuelles de stress et mesuré l'effet de ces trajectoires sur les variables liées à l'accouchement pour 163 femmes puis sur la DPP pour 91 d'entre elles.Résultats : Trois trajectoires ont été identifiées en prépartum comme en postpartum. Une première où le stress est faible en début de grossesse, augmente jusqu'en début de post-partum et diminue légèrement en fin de période postnatale. Une seconde où le stress est modéré en début de grossesse, diminue jusqu'au milieu de la grossesse, augmente en fin de grossesse et se stabilise en période postnatale. Une dernière où le stress est élevé en début de grossesse, puis diminue jusqu'en fin de grossesse et continue de diminuer en période postnatale. Lorsque le stress suit les trajectoires 2 et 3, la durée de gestation est plus courte, F(2,138) = 3,45, p < 0,05, η2 = 0,048, l'usage de la césarienne est plus fréquent, OR = 2,62,p < 0,05, IC95% = [1,01 – 6,75] ainsi que l'accouchement dystocique, OR = 3,54, p < 0,005, IC95% = [1,18 – 10,52]. En revanche, les trajectoires de stress n'ont pas d'effet sur la DPP.Discussion : Nos résultats sont encourageants et permettent de montrer que l'évolution de la perception du stress pendant la grossesse a un effet sur la durée de gestation, les complications obstétricales et l'usage de la césarienne. En revanche, elle n'en a pas sur la DPP. Cependant nos résultats suggèrent que le stress pourrait avoir un effet uniquement chez les femmes vulnérables et que la DPP s'insèrerait dans un continuum dépressif, alors contigu à la vulnérabilité au stress. Les recherches ultérieures devraient donc évaluer le lien entre des trajectoires individuelles de dépression et de stress du début de la grossesse en fin de postpartum afin de tester cette hypothèse. / Introduction : In France, as well as in other countries, the prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) (about 10% of women) is not more important than other forms of depression, but it is a major problem of screening, because women less consult, making prevention difficult. Researches to improve the prevention of DPP are essentially based on two models, the stress-vulnerability model and the bio-psycho-social model. The both models describe the prenatal psychological stress as an important determinant of the PPD. However, if stress is frequently assessed, it is usually measured only once and late in pregnancy. So, by now, it is not possible to know its evolution or to know its effects on PPD. Accordingly, a primary objective of this doctoral work is to identify and characterize trajectories of stress to assess their effects on the DPP. Moreover, some researches showed that obstetric complications during childbirth have a deleterious effect on the psychological health of postpartum women. Others proved that prenatal stress increases the risk of obstetric complications. So we assume that an elevated stress associated with obstetric complications in childbirth significantly increases the risk of PPD. Neverthless it differs from one woman to another depending on the level of stress determinants.Method: The health of mothers, their anxiety-trait level and socio-economic variables were recorded among 164 women before the end of two months of pregnancy (T0). Perceived stress, state anxiety, social support and coping strategies were evaluated at 2, 6 and 9 months of pregnancy for 163 women and at 1 and 6 months postpartum for 91 of them. Moreover, the results of prenatal screening for fetal pathologies, the term of pregnancy, baby's birth weight, results of Apgar and type of delivery (dystocic versus eutocic) were recorded. Finally, the measurement of the PPD was performed 6 months after delivery. We calculated trajectories of stress and we measured the effect of these trajectories on the variables related to childbirth for 163 women and on DPP for 91 of them.Results: Three trajectories were identified in prepartum and postpartum. A first trajectory where the stress is low in early pregnancy, increases until early postpartum and decreased slightly at the end of the postnatal period. A second where the stress is moderate in early pregnancy decreases until the middle of pregnancy, increases in late pregnancy and postpartum. A final trajectory where stress is high in early pregnancy and then decreases until the end of pregnancy and continues to decrease in postpartum. When the stress follows the paths 2 and 3, the gestation period is shorter, F(2,138) = 3.45, p <0.05, η2 = 0.048, the use of cesarean section is more common, OR = 2.62, p < 0.05, CI 95% = [1.01- 6.75] as well as dystocic labor, OR = 3.54, p <0.005, CI 95% = [1.18-10.52]. In contrast, the trajectories of stress does not have an effect on the PPD.Discussion: Our results are encouraging and show that the perception of stress during pregnancy has an effect on the duration of pregnancy, obstetric complications and the use of cesarean section. However it has no effect on the DPP, but our results suggest that stress may have an effect only among vulnerable women and that the DPP would fit into a depressive continuum, while adjacent to the vulnerability to stress. In conclusion, future researches should assess the link between trajectories of stress and depression from early pregnancy to late postpartum to test this hypothesis.

Awareness of danger signs of obstetric complications among pregnant women attending antenatal care in east Wollega, Ethiopia

A quantitative, descriptive and cross sectional study was conducted in four (4) health care facilities to determine whether pregnant women attending antenatal care are aware of danger signs of obstetric complications. The objectives of the study were to assess awareness of danger signs of obstetric complications and to associate demographic and obstetric factors with awareness of danger signs of obstetric complications among pregnant women attending antenatal care in Eastern Wollega zone. Data was collected by means of structured questionnaire from 384 pregnant women attending antenatal care in the 4 health facilities and analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 16 computer program. The findings revealed that the proportion of women who were aware of danger signs of obstetric complications was inadequate. Recommendations were made in line with the research findings / Health Studies / Health Studies / M.A. (Public Health)

Intellectual disability co-occurring with schizophrenia and other psychiatric illness : epidemiology, risk factors and outcome

Morgan, Vera Anne January 2008 (has links)
(Truncated abstract) The aims of this thesis are: (i) To estimate the prevalence of psychiatric illness among persons with intellectual disability and, conversely, the prevalence of intellectual disability among persons with a psychiatric illness; (ii) To describe the disability and service utilisation profile of persons with conjoint disorder; (iii) To examine, in particular, intellectual disability co-occurring with schizophrenia; and (iv) To explore the role of hereditary and environmental (specifically obstetric) risk factors in the aetiology of (i) intellectual disability and (ii) intellectual disability co-occurring with psychiatric illness. This thesis has a special interest in the relationship between intellectual disability and schizophrenia. Where data and sample sizes permit, it explores that relationship at some depth and has included sections on the putative nature of the link between intellectual disability and schizophrenia in the introductory and discussion chapters. To realise its objectives, the thesis comprises a core study focusing on aims (i) – (iii) and a supplementary study whose focus is aim (iv). It also draws on work from an ancillary study completed prior to the period of candidacy...This thesis found that, overall, 31.7% of persons with an intellectual disability had a psychiatric illness; 1.8% of persons with a psychiatric illness had an intellectual disability. The rate of schizophrenia, but not bipolar disorder or unipolar major depression, was greatly increased among cases of conjoint disorder: depending on birth cohort, 3.7-5.2% of individuals with intellectual disability had co-occurring schizophrenia. Down syndrome was much less prevalent among conjoint disorder cases despite being the most predominant cause of intellectual disability while pervasive developmental disorder was over-represented. Persons with conjoint disorder had a more severe clinical profile including higher mortality rates than those with a single disability. The supplementary study confirmed the findings in the core body of work with respect to the extent of conjoint disorder, its severity, and its relationship with pervasive development disorder and Down syndrome. Moreover, the supplementary study and the ancillary influenza study indicated a role for neurodevelopmental insults including obstetric complications in the adverse neuropsychiatric outcomes, with timing of the insult a potentially critical element in defining the specific outcome. The supplementary study also added new information on familiality in intellectual disability. It found that, in addition to parental intellectual disability status and exposure to labour and delivery complications at birth, parental psychiatric status was an independent predictor of intellectual disability in offspring as well as a predictor of conjoint disorder. In conclusion, the facility to collect and integrate records held by separate State administrative health jurisdictions, and to analyse them within the one database has had a marked impact on the capacity for this thesis to estimate the prevalence of conjoint disorder among intellectually disabled and psychiatric populations, and to understand more about its clinical manifestations and aetiological underpinnings.
