Peculiarities of the Prevalence of Intrauterine Infections at the Present Stage

Abstract

The aim: According to the literature sources to summarize statistics on the prevalence of intrauterine infection and its impact on pregnancy and the condition of newborns at the present stage. Materials and methods: The article analyzes 35 literature sources (scientific publications) from 2000 to 2021, indexed in international scientometric database and covers the incidence of intrauterine infections in countries with different income levels, as well as their impact on pregnancy, childbirth and the condition of newborns. Conclusions: The main task of obstetrics and gynecology at the present stage is to reduce reproductive losses, which necessitates further study of the etiology of IUI, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The screening for IUIs during pregnancy is cost-effective because treatment of the effects of IUIs requires disproportionately greater resources.
