ABSTRACT
Avaliar a completude dos dados no SINASC do Paraná, entre 2014 a 2019, de imigrantes e brasileiros. Método: Estudo transversal, retrospectivo, de análise de completude dos dados de nascimento do ano de 2014 a 2019 no estado do Paraná. Foram critérios de análise: excelente (menos de 5% de incompletude); bom (5% a 10%); regular (10% a 20%); ruim (20% a 50%); e muito ruim (acima de 50%). Resultados: Foram registrados no Brasil 948.316 nascidos vivos, dos quais 935.629 eram de mães brasileiras e 12.867 de mães imigrantes de diversas nacionalidades. Dentre as variáveis, os campos incompletos de mães brasileiras somaram 50.243 (5,37%) e de imigrantes 696 (5,41%), demonstrando um bom preenchimento do banco. Conclusão: Foi possível verificar que o banco de dados SINASC mostrou-se confiável e com baixas incompletudes entre os anos de 2014 a 2019 no estado do Paraná, independente da naturalidade da mãe. Porém, dados incompletos referentes às imigrantes ainda são maiores comparados aos de mulheres brasileiras, podendo ser resultado de uma falta de capacitação dos profissionais da saúde para a comunicação com as mães imigrantes que não falam a língua nativa, não coletando os dados de forma adequada e completa.
To evaluate the completeness of data in the SINASC of Paraná, from 2014 to 2019, of immigrants and Brazilians. Method: Cross-sectional, retrospective study, of analysis of completeness of birth data from the year 2014 to 2019 in the state of Paraná. Analysis criteria were: excellent (less than 5% incompleteness); good (5% to 10%); fair (10% to 20%); bad (20% to 50%); and very bad (above 50%). Results: In Brazil, 948,316 live births were registered, of which 935,629 were from Brazilian mothers and 12,867 from immigrant mothers of various nationalities. Among the variables, the incomplete fields of Brazilian mothers totaled 50,243 (5.37%) and of immigrants 696 (5.41%), de- monstrating a good completion of the bank. Conclusion: It was possible to verify that the SINASC database proved to be reliable and with low incompleteness between the years 2014 to 2019 in the state of Paraná, regardless of the mother's naturality. However, in- complete data referring to immigrants are still higher compared to those of Brazilian wo- men, which may be the result of a lack of training of health professionals for communi- cation with immigrant mothers who do not speak the native language, not collecting the data properly and completely.

Método: Estudio transversal, retrospectivo, de análisis de completitud de datos de nacimiento del año 2014 a 2019 en el estado de Paraná. Los criterios de análisis fueron: excelente (menos de 5% de incompletitud); bueno (5% a 10%); regular (10% a 20%); malo (20% a 50%); y muy malo (más de 50%). Resultados: En Brasil se registraron 948.316 nacidos vivos, de los cuales 935.629 eran de madres brasileñas y 12.867 de madres inmigrantes de diversas nacionalidades. Dentre as variá- veis, os campos incompletos de mães brasileiras somaram 50.243 (5,37%) e de imigrantes 696 (5,41%), demonstrando um bom preenchimento do banco. Conclusão: Foi possível verificar que o banco de dados SINASC mostrou-se confiável e com baixa incompletudes entre os anos de 2014 a 2019 no estado do Paraná, independentemente da naturalidade da mãe. Sin embargo, los datos incompletos referidos a las inmigrantes siguen siendo más altos en comparación con los de las mujeres brasileñas, lo que puede ser el resultado de la falta de formación de los profesionales de la salud para la comunicación con las madres inmigrantes que no hablan el idioma nativo, no recogiendo los datos de forma adecuada y completa.
ABSTRACT
Objective: Determining the appropriate approach for delivery after previous cesarean is a very controversial issue. Our objective was to establish whether pregnant women with a previous cesarean have an increased maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality after attempting vaginal delivery as well as to determine which factors may influence the achievement of a vaginal birth after cesarean. Materials and methods: A retrospective observational cohort study including 390 patients (196 cesarean group and 194 nulliparous group) was carried out. We compared neonatal and maternal outcomes between groups. Afterward, a multivariate logistic regression was applied for our second objective. Results: There were higher rates of uterine rupture (2% vs. 0%, p: 0.045) and puerperal hemorrhage (9.7% vs. 3.1%, p: 0.008) in the cesarean group and lower vaginal delivery rate (58.2% vs. 77.8%, p < 0.0005). We found that the induced onset of labor (OR = 2.9) and new born weight (OR = 1.0001) were associated with an increased risk of cesarean section. Conclusions: Our findings stress the need for further investigations in this field, which might provide a basis for a better management of patients with a previous cesarean.
Objetivo: Determinar el abordaje adecuado del tipo de parto tras una cesárea previa es un tema muy controvertido. Nuestro objetivo fue establecer si las gestantes con cesárea previa presentan mayor morbimortalidad materna y fetal tras intentar parto vaginal, así como determinar qué factores pueden influir en conseguir un parto vaginal posterior a la cesárea. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional de cohortes retrospectivo incluyendo 390 pacientes (196 con cesárea previa, 194 nulíparas). Comparamos los datos sobre los resultados neonatales y maternos. Posteriormente se aplicó un modelo de regresión logística multivariante. Resultados: Hubo mayores tasas de ruptura uterina (2% vs. 0%; p = 0.045) y hemorragia puerperal (9.7% vs. 3.1%, p: 0.008) en el grupo de cesárea anterior, así como una tasa de parto vaginal mas baja (58.2% vs. 77.8%, p < 0.0005). La inducción del parto (OR = 2,9) y el peso del recién nacido (OR = 1.0001) se asociaron a un mayor riesgo de cesárea. Conclusión: La probabilidad de parto vaginal en estas pacientes disminuye cuanto mayor sea el peso del recién nacido y con partos inducidos.

Background: Approximately 8 to 15% of perinatal deaths and 13 to 16% of neonatal deaths in India are a result of congenital anomalies. The objective of the research was to studyincidence of clinically detect-able congenital malformations in newborns delivered at secondary and tertiary hospitals and their asso-ciation with maternal and fetal factors. Material and methods: This study include all new-borns delivered at secondary and tertiary care hospi-tals in the Mehsana districts of Gujarat, India from January 1st, 2021 to December 31st, 2021. A total of 6900 consecutive births were examined for visible structural anomalies to determine the overall inci-dence and distribution of congenital malformations and their association with feto-maternal factors. Results: Total numbers of malformed babies were 90 with incidence of 1.30%. Incidence of malformed babies was 1.54% among mother in the age group of 21-35 years, 3.57% among mother with consan-guineous marriage, and 6.67.% among mothers with severe anemia. The incidence was 0.97% in babies <1500 birth weight, 0.97% among live births and 12.5% among preterm babies. Conclusion: Congenital anomalies in newborns are significantly associated with maternal factors like maternal age, consanguinity, previous child with malformation, history of previous abortion and severe anemia and fetal factors such as stillbirth, premature babies, and low birth weight.
ABSTRACT
Resumen La periodontitis es una enfermedad multifactorial caracterizada por una respuesta inflamatoria desarrollada por el huésped frente a los microorganismos de la biopelícula bacteriana. El proceso localizado en la cavidad oral puede influir en el huésped a nivel sistémico provocando resultados adversos en el embarazo como parto prematuro, hipertensión materna y bajo peso del niño al nacer. Objetivo: Analizar el estado actual del conocimiento sobre los mecanismos probables que vinculan la periodontitis con resultados adversos en el embarazo. Material y métodos: Se efectuó una revisión de la literatura y una búsqueda de artículos publicados durante el periodo comprendido entre los años 2016 y 2021 en las bases de datos MEDLINE, PUBMED, SciELO, LILACS, idioma inglés y/o español. Las búsquedas se realizaron utilizando los siguientes términos: Periodontitis, mediadores de inflamación, complicaciones del embarazo, parto prematuro. Resultados: Se analizaron un total de 24 publicaciones, incluidas revisiones de la literatura, revisiones sistemáticas, estudios de cohorte, estudios de casos y controles y estudio observacionales, que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Conclusión: La periodontitis es un factor de riesgo evitable por lo que se recomienda intensificar las medidas de prevención y tratamiento, en embarazadas y en mujeres en edad fértil.
Abstract Periodontitis is a multifactorial disease characterized by an inflammatory response developed by the host against the microorganisms of the bacterial biofilm. The localized process in the oral cavity can influence the host systemically causing adverse pregnancy outcomes such as premature delivery, maternal hypertension, and low birth weight. Objective: To analyze the current state of knowledge about the probable mechanisms that link periodontitis with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Material and methods: A literature review and a search for articles published during the period between 2016 and 2021 was carried out in the MEDLINE, PUBMED, SciELO, LILACS, English and / or Spanish databases. Searches were conducted using the following terms: Periodontitis, inflammatory mediators, pregnancy complications, preterm delivery. Results: 24 publications were analyzed, including literature reviews, systematic reviews, cohort studies, case-control studies, and observational studies, which met the inclusion criteria. Conclusion: Periodontitis is an avoidable risk factor, therefore it is recommended to intensify prevention and treatment measures in pregnant women and women of childbearing age.

Background: The reduction of maternal mortality rate has been the top priority of global health, yet its persistently high rate in Africa is a severe issue that requires the attention of both the individual and policymakers. Objective: To determine the maternal mortality rate by applying the sisterhood method in six local government areas in Oyo State. Materials and Methods: The indirect sisterhood method was used to collect data concerning maternal mortality. For study purposes, the data were collected from women in the reproductive age group between 15 and 49 years using a structured questionnaire. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 25.0 software was used for analyzing the collected data. Results: It has been observed that the average maternal mortality rate in the six local government areas was 489/100,000 live births ranging from 346 to 756/100,000 live births. The highest maternal mortality rate was found in Iseyin local government area (756/100,000 live births), followed by 586/100,000 from Saki, 444 from Ibadan North, 430 from Ogbomosho, 374 from Atiba, and the least value of 346/100,000 live births in Ibadan North local government area. Conclusion: The maternal mortality rate has been found lower than the previous studies but still unacceptably high, especially among adolescents aged 15–39 years. Therefore, it is advocated that policymakers employ appropriate interventions such as the release of more funds for standard family planning and childbirth spacing programs to minimize maternal mortality in the state.
ABSTRACT
SILVEIRA, L. M. Determinantes do início do uso de métodos contraceptivos após o parto em usuárias da Atenção Primária à Saúde. 2022. 96p. Dissertação (Mestrado em Enfermagem) - Escola de Enfermagem, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, 2022. Introdução: A contracepção após o parto é estratégia essencial para prevenir gestações não planejadas e garantir o intervalo interpartal recomendado, visto que engravidar em um espaço de tempo menor do que 12 meses aumenta os riscos maternos, neonatais e infantis. Sabe-se ainda que características sociodemográficas e assistenciais podem influenciar o início precoce ou tardio de métodos contraceptivos (MC) após o parto. Objetivos: Verificar se as características sociodemográficas e assistenciais estão associadas ao tempo até o início do uso de contraceptivos no primeiro ano após o parto em usuárias da Atenção Primária à Saúde. Metodologia: Estudo longitudinal, do tipo coorte prospectiva, de gestantes e puérperas cuja linha de base foi aninhada a um projeto multicêntrico de abrangência nacional e Belo Horizonte foi um centro colaborador. Contou com amostra de 236 mulheres na linha de base, 108 na primeira onda e 68 na segunda onda. As entrevistas da linha de base foram realizadas presencialmente com as gestantes. As entrevistas da linha de base foram interrompidas devido à pandemia de COVID-19. O seguimento deu-se por meio de ligações telefônicas, 6 meses após o parto e 1 ano após o nascimento do bebê. Foram analisados os tipos de MC iniciados e calculado o tempo até o início dos mesmos segundo características sociodemográficas e assistenciais. A fração de mulheres que permaneceram sem usar o método contraceptivo ao longo do primeiro ano após o parto foi calculada usando a estimativa de Kaplan Meier. O teste log-rank foi utilizado para analisar se havia diferença entre os grupos (p<0,05). O Modelo de Riscos Proporcionais de Cox com cálculo do risco relativo (RR) não ajustado e ajustado e seus intervalos de 95% de confiança (IC95%) foi usado para estimar os determinantes sociodemográficos e assistenciais associados ao início do uso de métodos. Resultados: Das 108 mulheres, mais de 90% relataram utilizar algum MC, sendo o injetável o mais utilizado (25,9%), seguido das camisinhas (25,0%), das pílulas (23,2%) e do DIU (13,0%). Mais de 48% das mulheres iniciaram o uso de MC 40 dias após o parto. Ou seja, os outros 50% iniciaram após e outras nem iniciaram. A mediana do tempo até o início do MC foi: 39,5 dias (IC95%: 32,1-44). Essa mediana foi menor para mulheres com idade igual ou maior que 35 anos (12,5 dias; IC95%: 0,5-37,3), pardas/pretas (22 dias; IC95%: 4,1-54,1) e que recebiam bolsa família (33 dias; IC95%: 20,3-67,4). Observou ainda que as mulheres que iniciaram o uso de MC mais rapidamente receberam orientações na maternidade (23 dias; IC95% 7,1-42,6) ; foram atendidas por enfermeiros (32 dias; IC95%: 0,71-48,3), e realizaram mais de 6 consultas de pré-natal (33 dias; IC95%: 27,4-41,0). Após ajuste de todas as variáveis, a idade das mulheres e o número de consultas de pré-natal (PN) foram determinantes do início de uso de MC. Mulheres mais jovens (18 até 34 anos) se associaram ao início mais tardio do uso de MC e o maior número de consultas PN ao início mais rápido do uso de MC. Conclusão: Apesar da alta prevalência do uso de MC, persistem desigualdades sociodemográficas e assistenciais em relação ao tempo até o início da contracepção após o parto, como também, uma insegurança contraceptiva. Ressalta-se a necessidade de uma política de promoção do uso de MC eficazes nesse período para reduzir os desfechos adversos associados ao curto intervalo interpartal e os riscos relacionados a ocorrência de gestações pouco espaçadas.

SILVEIRA, L. M. Determinants of the initiation of the use of contraceptive methods after childbirth in users of Primary Health Care. 2022. 96p. Dissertation (Master in Nursing) School of Nursing, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, 2022. Introduction: The postpartum contraception is an essential strategy to prevent unplanned pregnancies and ensure the recommended interpregnancy interval, since becoming pregnant in a period of time of less than 12 months increases maternal, neonatal and infant risks. It is also known that sociodemographic and health assistance characteristics can influence the early or late initiation of contraceptive methods (CM) after the giving birth. Objective: To verify whether sociodemographic and assistance characteristics are associated with the time until the initiation of contraceptive use in the first year after giving birth in users of Primary Health Care service. Methods: Longitudinal, prospective cohort type of study of pregnant and postpartum women whose baseline was nested in a nationwide multicenter project and Belo Horizonte was a collaborative center. It had a sample of 236 women at baseline, 108 in the first wave and 68 in the second wave. The baseline interviews were conducted face-to-face with pregnant women. The baseline interviews were discontinued due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The follow-up was conducted through phone calls, 6 months after they gave birth and 1 year after the baby's birth. The types of CM that were initiated were analyzed, and the time until the initiation was calculated according to sociodemographic and assistance characteristics. The fraction of women who remained not using a contraceptive method throughout the first year after giving birth was calculated using Kaplan Meier estimation. The log-rank test was used to analyze if there was a difference between the groups (p<0.05). The Cox Proportional Risk Model with unadjusted and adjusted relative risk (RR) calculation and its 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) was used to estimate the sociodemographic and assistance determinants associated with the beginning of the use of methods. Results: Out of the 108 women, over 90% reported using some CM, with the injectable one being the most commonly used (25.9%), followed by condoms (25.0%), pills (23.2%) and IUD (13.0%). More than 48% of women started using CM 40 days after giving birth. This means the other 50% started after and others did not start at all. The median time to the start of CM was: 39.5 days (95%CI: 32.1-44). This average was lower for women aged 35 years or older (12.5 days; 95%CI: 0.5-37.3), brown/black (22 days; 95%CI: 4.1-54.1) and receiving family allowance (33 days; 95%CI: 20.3-67.4). It was also noted that women who started using CM more quickly received orientation at the maternity hospital (23 days; 95%CI 7.1-42.6); were seen by nurses (32 days; 95%CI: 0.71-48.3), received, and had more than 6 prenatal visits (33 days; 95%CI: 27.4-41.0). After the adjustment of all variables, women's age and the number of prenatal (PN) appointments were determinants of the beginning of CM use. Younger women (18 up to 34 years old) were associated with a later beginning of CM use, and more prenatal visits were associated with a faster beginning of CM use. Conclusion: Despite the high prevalence of CM use, sociodemographic and assistance inequalities persist regarding the time until the beginning of contraception after delivery, as well as contraceptive insecurity. We emphasize the need for a policy to promote the use of effective CM in this period to reduce the adverse outcomes associated with the short intrapartum interval and the risks related to the occurrence of poorly spaced pregnancies.

Resumen OBJETIVO: Determinar la proporción y los factores asociados con el parto domiciliario en el Perú. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional, transversal, analítico y cuantitativo efectuado en conglomerados de viviendas distribuidas en las capitales de los departamentos, ciudades urbanas y entornos rurales de Perú. Se utilizó una base de datos secundaria de la Encuesta Demográfica y de Salud Familiar (ENDES) del Perú del año 2019. Se optó por este diseño debido a que el desenlace (parto domiciliario) y la exposición (factores) se evaluaron simultáneamente durante la recolección de datos. RESULTADOS: De los 18,401 registros analizados, se estimó que el 5.39% (IC95%: 4.83-6.03%) de mujeres en el Perú tuvieron parto domiciliario; sin embargo, la proporción alcanzó 19.59% (IC95%: 17.26-22.17%) en el área rural y 17.85% (IC95%: 15.21-20.84%) en la selva peruana. CONCLUSIONES: La proporción de partos domiciliarios en el Perú durante el 2019 fue de 5.39%. Se identificaron determinantes que favorecen los partos domiciliarios: residir en la sierra o selva del Perú, en un área rural, tener menos de seis atenciones prenatales, ser pobre o muy pobre, tener estudios o solo haber alcanzado la instrucción primaria y tener 2 o 3 hijos. Un determinante que redujo la probabilidad de parto domiciliario fue el nivel de instrucción superior (universitaria o técnica).
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the proportion and factors associated with home delivery in Peru. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Observational, cross-sectional, analytical and quantitative study carried out in clusters of households distributed in Departmental capitals, urban cities and rural settings in Peru. A secondary database from the 2019 Peruvian Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES) was used. This design was chosen because outcome (home delivery) and exposure (factors) were assessed simultaneously during data collection. RESULTS: Of the 18401 records analyzed, it was estimated that 5.39% (95%CI: 4.83-6.03%) of women in Peru had home births; however, the proportion reached 19.59% (95%CI: 17.26-22.17%) in rural areas and 17.85% (95%CI: 15.21-20.84%) in the Peruvian jungle. CONCLUSIONS: The proportion of home births in Peru during 2019 was 5.39%; likewise, determinants favoring the occurrence of home births were identified, such as residing in the Peruvian highlands or jungle, in a rural area, having less than six prenatal care, being poor or very poor, having studies or only having attained primary education and, finally, having 2 or 3 children.
ABSTRACT
Resumo Introdução As informações sobre estatísticas vitais ressaltam-se por sua importância como subsídios para ações adequadas em diversos setores, tornando relevante avaliar a qualidade delas. Objetivo Descrever a completude e a concordância de variáveis selecionadas da Declaração de Nascidos Vivos (DNV) de crianças hospitalizadas de dois municípios da Região Metropolitana de João Pessoa, com base nos prontuários hospitalares. Método Realizou-se um estudo descritivo considerando menores de 1 ano residentes nos municípios de Cabedelo e Bayeux, nascidos em 2013, hospitalizados no mesmo ano em hospitais públicos pediátricos do estado da Paraíba. Com base nos dados dos prontuários hospitalares, as DNVs foram analisadas em relação à completude e à concordância, segundo o coeficiente Kappa (variáveis categóricas) ou o coeficiente de correlação intraclasse (variáveis quantitativas). Resultados Na avaliação das DNVs, a idade gestacional destacou-se por apresentar completude muito ruim e concordância apenas razoável. A quantidade de filhos mortos também foi classificada em concordância razoável. Os problemas na qualidade da informação dessas variáveis inviabilizam seu uso em estudos epidemiológicos e como subsídio para as políticas públicas. Conclusão A completude e a concordância das variáveis analisadas denotaram boa qualidade no preenchimento das DNVs, exceto para a idade gestacional e o número de filhos mortos.
Abstract Background Data on vital statistics stand out for their importance in supporting appropriate actions in various sectors; therefore, assessment of their quality is relevant. Objective To describe the completeness and concordance of selected variables of the Certificates Live Birth (CLB) of hospitalized children in two municipalities of the metropolitan region of João Pessoa based on hospital records. Method A descriptive study was carried out considering children under one year of age living in the municipalities of Cabedelo and Bayeux, born in 2013, hospitalized in the same year in public pediatric hospitals in the state of Paraíba. Based on data from hospital records, CLB were analyzed in relation to their completeness and agreement using the Kappa Coefficient (categorical variables) or the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (quantitative variables). Results In the evaluation of the CLB, gestational age stood out for presenting very poor completeness and only reasonable agreement. The number of dead children was also rated with reasonable agreement. The problems in the quality of information on these variables prevent their use in epidemiological studies and as a support to public policies. Conclusion The completeness and agreement of the analyzed variables showed good quality in the completion of the CLB, except for gestational age and number of dead children.
ABSTRACT
Resumo Introdução A avaliação do SINASC é essencial para verificar sua utilidade relacionada à pesquisa científica e às políticas de saúde. Objetivo Revisar a literatura publicada entre 2010 e 2018 sobre a qualidade dos dados do SINASC. Método Realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura sobre estudos que avaliaram o SINASC utilizando indicadores de qualidade (completitude, confiabilidade, cobertura). Resultados Nos estudos revisados, o número de filhos mortos, a ocupação materna, a idade gestacional e a raça/cor foram as variáveis com maiores frequências de incompletude. Com baixa concordância, destacaram-se a escolaridade materna, a idade gestacional, o número de consultas de pré-natal e o número de filhos mortos. Na cobertura, foi possível sistematizar o sub-registro dos nascimentos nos estudos de âmbito municipal/estadual. Conclusão Destaca-se que: i. a cobertura do SINASC não está distribuída de forma homogênea nas microrregiões e municípios brasileiros, ii. as informações sobre o número de filhos mortos e a idade gestacional apresentam baixa qualidade de preenchimento no SINASC.
Abstract Introduction The evaluation of SINASC is essential to verify its usefulness related to scientific research and health policies. Objective To review the published literature between 2010 and 2018 on data quality of SINASC. Method A systematic review of the literature on studies evaluating SINASC using quality indicators (completeness, reliability, coverage) was carried out. Results In the reviewed studies, the number of dead children, maternal occupation, gestational age, and race/color were the variables with more frequencies of incompleteness. Maternal education level, gestational age, number of prenatal consultations, and number of dead children stood out with low concordance. In coverage, it was possible to systematize the underreporting of births in the municipal studies. In the evaluation of Life Births, gestational age was the only variable with poor completeness; the lowest concordances were found for gestational age and the number of dead children. Conclusion It should be noted that: i. the coverage of SINASC is not homogeneously distributed in the Brazilian microregions and municipalities, ii. the information on the number of dead children and the gestational age present low filling quality in SINASC.
ABSTRACT
Background: Between January 2001 to September 2003, 46,171 deliveries were recorded, the number of caesarean deliveries during this period of two years and nine months were 16,182 (35.04%). Methods: An Audit from the Institute of obstetrics and gynecology, of uterine ruptures.Results: Total 81 cases of uterine rupture were managed at the Institute. Total number of scar ruptures managed were, 48/81 uterine ruptures. Five women had previous classical upper segment caesarean, and in previous lower segment caesarean section (LSCS), there were 43 cases of rupture uterus. In two cases following forceps delivery, traumatic uterine ruptures were recorded. Spontaneous ruptures were 31 during the study period. Bladder rupture occurred in 13 cases, 16.04% of uterine ruptures. The fetal outcome in uterine ruptures 81 cases, live births were 19-23.45%. The number of vaginal births after caesarean section were 261, 215, 186 in the years 2001, 2002 and 2003 at the Institute of obstetrics and gynecology. The number of scar ruptures were 7/261, 9/215, 2/186 in the respective years. Hysterectomy was done in 43/81=53.08%. Rent repair of the uterine rupture was done in 38/81.Conclusions: An Audit from the Institute of obstetrics and gynecology, of uterine ruptures has provided the following data that gives an insight into the practice of obstetrics during the decade 2000 to 2010 in the teaching Institute. Caesarean deliveries accounted for 35.04% of the total deliveries. Repeat caesarean sections were 7105, 43.9%. The number of vaginal births after caesarean section (VBAC) were 662. Scar ruptures in VBAC were 18 /662-2.71%. The maternal mortality in MGMH study was 3/81 uterine ruptures-3.7%. Scar ruptures constituted, 48/81-59.25% of uterine ruptures. Trial of labor after caesarean (TOLAC) and VBAC are practiced in the teaching Institute.
ABSTRACT
Resumen La distribución de los partos en majadas caprinas a lo largo del año determina el volumen de oferta comercial en la misma. Sin embargo esto podría estar condicionado por el sistema de manejo empleado. Es por ello que el objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la distribución de los partos en hatos de cabras del sudoeste de la provincia del Chaco, Argentina y su relación con el sistema productivo utilizado. El estudio se llevó adelante mediante el relevamiento de 541 nacimientos en 6 establecimientos bajo 2 tipos de manejo: extensivo (n=447) y semi-intensivo (n=93). Los datos fueron tomados en planillas de registros por cada productor caprino. Se realizó un análisis exploratorio y descriptivo mediante el software estadístico Infostat. Se observó que la mayor concentración de los partos ocurrió principalmente en los meses de invierno y otoño en los sistemas extensivos, sin embargo se encontraron diferencias con el sistema semi-intensivo, en donde la ocurrencia de nacimientos fue homogénea a lo largo del año con un leve incremento en los meses de primavera. Se concluye que la distribución de los partos está afectada por el tipo de sistema productivo utilizado, pudiéndose lograr una oferta comercial uniforme a lo largo del año con la intensificación del sistema.
Abstract Annual distribution of births in goats in the southwest of the province of Chaco, Argentina. The distribution of births in goats during the year determines the volume of commercial along the year. However, this could be condicionated by the management system used. Therefore the objective of this work was to evaluate the distribution of births in herds of goats in the southwest of the province of Chaco, Argentina. The study was carried out by surveying 541 births in 6 establishments under 2 types of management: extensive (n= 447) and semi-intensive (n= 93). The data were taken in spreadsheets by each goat producer. An exploratory and descriptive analysis was carried out using the Infostat statistical software. It was observed that the highest concentration of births occurred mainly in the months of winter and autumn in the extensive systems, however differences were found with the semi-intensive system, where the occurrence of births was homogeneous throughout the year with a slight increase in the spring months. In conclusion, the distribution of births is affected by the type of production system used, achieving a uniform commercial offer throughout the year with the intensification of the system.
ABSTRACT
Background: A normal delivery is what every woman wishes to have. The objective of this study was to find out the maternal and neonatal outcome and background characteristics of women delivering vaginally in a tertiary care center in Chennai, South India.Methods: For this one-year study, with power above 80%, Parturition records were selected by computerized random numbers, for a calculated sample size. Salient demographic features such as age, residential background and religion were noted. Details of obstetric history, past and current, delivery and baby details and admission to NICU were analyzed. Acceptance of postpartum contraception was noted.Results: A total of 338 women delivered vaginally. Majority of 63%, were from urban background. Late referrals were 19.2% of women,38.5% women had antenatal complications. Primigravida were 49.7%. Nearly 91.4% of women delivered naturally. Previous pregnancy loss was noted in 14.8%.

ABSTRACT
Resumen: OBJETIVO: Encontrar los factores no médicos que intervienen en el criterio del obstetra para elegir que la vía de nacimiento sea por parto o cesárea. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal, retrospectivo, observacional y analítico, efectuado en pacientes atendidas entre 2016 y 2019 en el Hospital Ángeles Lomas, con más de 24 semanas de embarazo y que lo terminaron mediante parto o cesárea. Criterio de exclusión: embarazos múltiples. Variable dependiente: nacimiento por parto o cesárea. Variables independientes: sexo del obstetra, consultorio en el mismo hospital o externo, disponibilidad de asistente médico, mes del año, día de la semana y periodo vacacional. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 3906 nacimientos, 1495 cesáreas (38.3%) y 2411 partos (61.7%). Se observó mayor riesgo de cesárea, con significación estadística en: nacimientos atendidos por obstetras externos (OR = 3.81; IC95%: 3.07-4.73), nacimientos atendidos por obstetras del mismo hospital sin asistente médico (OR = 1.75; IC95%: 1.48-2.08), obstetras mujeres (OR = 2.55; IC95%: 2.06-3.16), abril vs diciembre (OR = 1.44; IC95%:1.04-1.98) y miércoles vs domingos (OR = 1.55; IC95%:1.14-2.05). Se registraron más cesáreas en el periodo prevacacional vs vacacional (OR = 1.51; IC95%: 0.94-2.43) sin diferencia estadísticamente significativa. CONCLUSIONES: Existen factores no médicos que aumentan la frecuencia de cesárea. Los relacionados con el obstetra incluyen: no tener el consultorio en el mismo hospital y carecer de asistente médico.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To find the non-medical factors that intervene in the obstetrician's criteria for choosing a birth canal or Cesarean section. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Transversal, retrospective, observational and analytical study carried out on patients attended between 2016 and 2019 at Hospital Ángeles Lomas (Mexico City), with more than 24 weeks of pregnancy and who finished it by vaginal delivery or cesarean section. Exclusion criterion: Multiple pregnancies. Dependent variable: birth by delivery or cesarean section. Independent variables: sex of the obstetrician, office in the same hospital or outside, availability of medical assistant, month of the year, day of the week and vacation period. RESULTS: 3906 births, 1495 cesarean sections (38.3%) and 2411 deliveries (61.7%) were included. A higher risk of cesarean section was observed, with statistical significance in: births attended by external obstetricians (OR = 3.81; CI95%: 3.07-4.73), births attended by obstetricians at the same hospital without a physician's assistant (OR = 1. 75; CI95%: 1.48-2.08), female obstetricians (OR = 2.55; CI95%: 2.06-3.16), April vs. December (OR = 1.44; CI95%:1.04-1.98) and Wednesday vs More cesarean sections were recorded in the pre-vacation vs. vacation period (OR = 1.51; IC95%: 0.94-2.43) with no statistically significant difference. CONCLUSIONS: There are non-medical factors that increase the frequency of cesarean section. Those related to the obstetrician included: not having the office in the same hospital and not having a medical assistant.

Background: A significant rise in triplet pregnancy rate has occurred recently. This rise is of concern, as these infants are frequently reported as a risk factor of adverse outcome. The aim of this study was to retrospectively study the outcomes of triplet births.Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken to analyze the clinical data of all patients with triplet gestation admitted to the labour room of Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Hospital, Delhi to study the maternal and fetal outcomes. Authors retrospectively observed and analyzed the database to examine triplet gestations delivered between January 2014 and December 2018.Results: Over the five-year study period, there were total 44,011 deliveries. Out of these, there were 35 (0.079%) triplet pregnancies. Of all the triplet pregnancies studied 80% resulted from ovulation induction and assisted reproductive technology. The mean gestational age at delivery was 31.6±3.0 weeks, and the mean birth weight was 1,594±460 gm. The most common maternal complications were Preterm labour in 32 pregnancies (92%), anemia in 17 (49%), pre-eclampsia in 11 (31%), post-partum hemorrhage in 8 (22%). Of the total deliveries neonatal complications included Respiratory distress syndrome in 44 (42.2%), Hyperbilirubinemia in 41 (39%), Intrauterine growth restriction in 19 (18.1%). The perinatal mortality rate was 10.5%.Conclusions: Higher order pregnancies are associated with maternal and neonatal complications. These high risk women need more care and the neonates require intensive care and monitoring after birth, most commonly due to prematurity and low birth weight.
ABSTRACT
Background: Pregnancy, although being considered a physiological state, carries the risk of serious maternal morbidity and at times mortality, due to various complications that may arise during pregnancy, labour or thereafter. The existing medical condition, infection, and surgical condition which is collectively called as non- obstetric cause pre disposes a women for more complication than a non-pregnant women, so much so that it can lead to maternal mortality. Thus, Pregnancy is more vulnerable state and present study was carried out to study, analyse and review various non-obstetrics causes of death of women during pregnancy or within 42 days of termination of pregnancy in Tertiary care centre.Methods: This was an Observational study, conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology, at a tertiary care hospital attached with medical college, from October 2016 to October 2018. The details of maternal deaths were collected from various departments with non- obstetric causes and analyzed.Results: The total number of deliveries in my study period was 15,208. There were 197 maternal mortality in our study period, of which 51 women died of non-obstetric causes. The most common cause of maternal mortality in our study was hepatic cause i.e. 33.33% amongst which viral hepatitis was the most common cause followed by respiratory (19.60%), infectious (15.18%), heamoglobinopathy (13.72%), cardiac (5.88%), neurological (5.88%), surgical (5.88%) causes.Conclusions: Looking into our study, maternal mortality can be reduced by identifying various different indirect medical causes which are preventable by proper pre-pregnancy evaluation for pre-existing comorbid conditions.
ABSTRACT
Background: Maternal mortality is an area of concern for the Governments across the globe. India is signatory to millennium declaration and is committed to achieving the target of millennium development goals by reducing MMR to 100. Known obstacles to reducing the MMR in developing countries, include lack of material and human resources, as well as difficulties in accessing services due to financial, geographical, and cultural limitations.Methods: It was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at a tertiary care centre in Uttarakhand for a period of one year. WHO’s near-miss approach was implemented for evaluation of severe maternal outcomes and to assess the quality of maternal health care.Results: During the period of this study there were 2243 total antenatal admissions, 1675 deliveries, 1591 live births and 59 near miss cases. Prevalence of SAMM in the present study is 3.52%. Out of every 9-10 women who survived a life-threatening condition 1 died. Mortality Index is 10.17%. Maternal mortality ratio is 377.12 per 1 lakh live births. A total of 43 patients with potentially life-threatening conditions were admitted in ICU out of which 26 were near miss cases. The leading cause of near miss in this tertiary health facility is obstetric haemorrhage (45.8%).Conclusions: Prompt identification of complications and timed intervention remains the key determinant in making mothers survive a life-threatening complication.
ABSTRACT
Resumo: Neste trabalho, avaliam-se quantitativa e qualitativamente as informações do Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos (SINASC). A cobertura das informações por município foi estimada pela razão entre nascidos vivos informados e estimados. Para avaliação da qualidade das informações do SINASC, relacionou-se o sistema à base de dados do estudo Nascer no Brasil, 2011-2012, e foram estimados coeficientes kappa de concordância. Em 2013, a cobertura das informações foi alta e homogênea em todas as Unidades da Federação. Entretanto, a análise por município brasileiro apresentou maior heterogeneidade espacial. Quanto à qualidade de preenchimento das informações do SINASC, os coeficientes kappa de concordância foram estatisticamente diferentes de zero para todas as variáveis testadas (p < 0,001), e as distribuições marginais para todas as variáveis consideradas foram semelhantes nas duas bases de dados. A idade gestacional foi a variável que mostrou pior concordância, com valor de kappa de 0,461. O indicador que descreve as inconsistências, medido pela soma do quadrado das diferenças entre os percentuais de prematuridade informados e esperados por faixa de peso ao nascer, teve o valor mais alto na Região Norte e o menor na Região Sul, apontando para desigualdades geográficas na mensuração da idade gestacional.
Abstract: This study is a quantitative and qualitative assessment of data from the Brazilian Information System on Live Births (SINASC) in Brazil. Coverage of the data by municipality was estimated as the ratio between reported and estimated live births. Data quality in the SINASC was assessed via probabilistic linkage with the database from the Birth in Brazil study, 2011-2012, and kappa coefficients of agreement were calculated. In 2013, data coverage was high and homogeneous in all states of Brazil. However, the analysis according to municipalities (counties) showed greater spatial heterogeneity. As for completeness of information in SINASC, kappa coefficients were statistically different from zero for all the tested variables (p < 0.001), and marginal distributions of all the variables were similar in the two databases. Gestational age was the variable with the worst agreement, with a kappa value of 0.461. The indicator that describes the inconsistencies, measured by the sum of the square of the differences between the reported and expected prematurity rates by birthweight bracket, showed the highest value in the North of Brazil and the lowest in the South, pointing to geographic inequalities in measurement of gestational age.

O Brasil vem passando por um processo de adiamento dos nascimentos, o que tem contribuído para que a fecundidade observada seja reduzida pela ação do efeito tempo. Nesse contexto, o primeiro nascimento assume importância, na medida em que o momento da sua ocorrência está relacionado ao dos nascimentos subsequentes e ao potencial de recuperação dos nascimentos adiados. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o comportamento dos nascimentos de primeira ordem no Brasil, levando-se em conta a heterogeneidade regional. Buscam-se elementos que possam enriquecer o debate acerca do futuro da fecundidade no país. São utilizados os dados dos Censos Demográficos e as histórias de nascimentos reconstruídas a partir destes, para o período de 1980 a 2010. Os resultados mostram a persistência dos diferenciais regionais e indicam um cenário de adiamento do primeiro filho no Brasil e de aumento da proporção de mulheres que terminam o período reprodutivo sem filhos. Caso os diferenciais regionais se reduzam, a tendência é de acirramento do adiamento e queda adicional dos níveis de fecundidade.
Brazil is undergoing a process of birth postponement, which has contributed to the reduction of observed fertility. In this context, first births are crucial, insofar as the moment of their occurrence is related to subsequent births and to postponed births' recovery potential. The objective of this paper is to analyze first-order births, taking into account Brazilian regional heterogeneity. We intend to enrich the debate about the future of fertility in Brazil. Data come from the 1980, 1991, 2000 and 2010 Demographic Censuses and the birth stories reconstructed from them, for the 1980 to 2010 period. Results show the persistence of regional differentials and point to (i) a scenario of postponement of first child in Brazil; and (ii) an increase in the proportion of childless women. If regional differences are reduced, postponement tends to increase and fertility levels tend to decrease further.

En ese contexto, el primer nacimiento adquiere importancia, en la medida en que el momento de su ocurrencia está relacionado con el potencial de recuperación de los nacimientos pospuestos. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el comportamiento de los nacimientos de primer orden, teniendo en cuenta la heterogeneidad regional. Se buscan elementos que puedan enriquecer el debate sobre el futuro de la fecundidad en Brasil. Se utilizan los datos de los censos demográficos de 1980, 1991, 2000 y 2010 y las historias de nacimientos reconstruidas a partir de los censos para el período 1980-2010. Los resultados muestran la persistencia de las diferencias regionales y apuntan a un escenario de aplazamiento del primer hijo y de aumento de la proporción de mujeres que terminan el período reproductivo sin hijos. Si las diferencias regionales se reducen, la tendencia es de acentuación del aplazamiento y de caída adicional de los niveles de fecundidad.
