Preterm birth: causes and complications observed in tertiary care hospitals

Abstract

and it eventually selected 80 pregnant women for the final experiment. Those pregnant women who had preeclampsia, intrahepatic cholestasis during pregnancy, placenta previa or chorioamnionitis were more likely to experience pre-term birth. A patient interview was conducted in a detailed manner and all the necessary information regarding the mother and the infant were collected to carry out the study. Among 80 patients, collected the highest number of 39 cases i.e. 49% in between the age group of 17-23 years and the least number of cases therefore 19 i.e. 24% in between the age group of 35-45 years. We studied that maternal variable such as social status and educational status also impacts deliveries. Alcoholics had the highest number of very pre-term deliveries i.e., 36.25%. And among undergraduates, moderate preterm deliveries were a predominant number, i.e. 38.75%. Among the cases collected, 22.5% of women who have previous abortions had the highest number of preterm births with 31 cases and 5% of women with thyroid had the least number of pre-term births. 41% of preemie births were observed in the gestational gap of < 18 months, while 24% were recorded in > 30 months. In between two types of deliveries, 69% of preemie births were observed in the cesarean section and normal delivery includes 31%. The results of our study reveal that there is a need to assess the causes and complications among pregnant women who are at risk of delivering a premature baby. We have concluded that counseling the patients about their risk factors is necessary, and the patients should be told that harmful social habits will have a huge impact on their baby, before or after the delivery.

Association between TORCH infection and lupus anticoagulant antibody in pregnant women with recurrent abortion

“…As an indicator of blood clots, this study determined the amount of lupus anticoagulant antibody in the blood of pregnant women. Similar to the results of the studies conducted by other investigators, the level of lupus anticoagulant antibodies has elevated in the blood of aborted women (29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34).…”

Vaginal microecological imbalance and expression of serum inflammatory factors in pregnant women with group B streptococcus infection and pregnancy outcome

“…Further studies on the relationship between vaginal microecological imbalance and the expression of serum inflammatory factors and GBS infection can provide more effective prevention and treatment strategies for maternal health, and help to improve pregnancy outcomes. Compared with other experimental studies (27)(28)(29)(30)(31), this experiment analyzed the proportion of vaginal microecological imbalance and the expression of serum inflammatory factors in pregnant women with GBS infection and those without GBS infection. It concluded that GBS infection can increase the probability of vaginal microecological imbalance and the expression level of serum inflammatory factors in pregnant women, which will lead to an increase in adverse pregnancy outcomes.…”

“…In several studies, cellular and molecular aspects of pregnant women have been reported (24)(25)(26)(27).…”
