Reducing stillbirths: prevention and management of medical disorders and infections during pregnancy

Abstract: Background: An estimated two-thirds of the world's 3.2 million stillbirths occur antenatally, prior to labour, and are often overlooked in policy and programs. Poorly recognised, untreated or inadequately treated maternal infections such as syphilis and malaria, and maternal conditions including hypertensive disorders, are known risk factors for stillbirth.

“…46 For prophylaxis of gestational hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, calcium supplementation is largely eff ective in populations with low intake of calcium, and hence there is no evidence of benefi t in developed countries with adequate intake. 47 In assessment of 13 good quality trials comprising 15 730 women, Hofmeyr and colleagues 22 showed that calcium supplementation signifi cantly reduced the risk of high blood pressure (RR 0·65, 95% CI 0·53-0·81), and reduced the risk of pre-eclampsia overall (0·45, 0·31-0·65) and in high-risk women (0·22, 0·12-0·42). Calcium supplementation also reduced the average risk of preterm birth (0·76, 0·60-0·97), but had no overall eff ect on the risk of stillbirth or death before discharge from hospital (table 1).…”

“…1,9,[78][79][80][81] Otuz sekizinci haftadan önce aktif yönetim ile doğumun gerçekleştirilmesi kabul görmektedir, fakat bazı obstetrik uzmanları bu görüşe karşı çıkmakta-dır. [82][83][84] "Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (RCOG)", GİK'da aktif tedaviyi destekleyen veya karşı çıkan bir kanıt olmadığı için rutin olarak uygulanan aktif tedaviyi desteklememekte, bunun yerine tedavinin bireyselleştirilmesini öner-mektedir. 85 American Collage of Obstetricians and Gynecologists ise aktif tedaviyi önermektedir.…”

“…Asimismo, las endotoxinas bacterianas activan el sistema inmunológico del hospedero liberando mediadores inflamatorios, como prostaglandinas, interleuquinas y factor de necrosis tumoral, entre otras citoquinas. Estas sustancias generan la destrucción del ligamento periodontal y el hueso alveolar, lo que causa la pérdida del sistema de soporte dental y a futuro, si la paciente no recibe un tratamiento adecuado, podría perder piezas dentales [19,20,21,22]; lo que tal vez hace eco de ese refrán popular, que dice: "un embarazo, un dien ser real si no existe el consabido tratamiento enfermedad periodontal.…”

“…Otros datos científicos que son importantes a considerar en este contexto, es la propuesta de que esos mediadores inflamatorios generados en la enfermedad periodontal activan anticipadamente las contracciones uterinas y la dilatación cervical [19,20,21,22,23]; por lo que se relacionan como un factor de riesgo para sufrir un parto de pretérmino, esto es, antes de las 37 semanas de gestación, o bien, aument bajo peso al nacer (menos de 2500g) [20,23]. Estas situaciones generan complicaciones que incrementan la morbilidad y la mortalidad infantil, acarreando un alto coste hospitalario y una problemática psicológica en el seno familiar [22].…”
