RÉSUMÉ

Background: Cardiotocography is the most common method for assessing fetal health and reveals brain oxygenation. This study is done for admission and intrapartum cardiotocography in high- and low-risk pregnancies and its correlation with neonatal outcome.Methods: All high-risk and normal antenatal women with more than 34 weeks of pregnancy and vertex presentation who came to the labor room were included in the study. 200 cases were taken, 100 were in the "high risk group," and the remaining 100 were in the "low risk group." On admission CTG and intrapartum CTG tracing were taken after written and informed consent, neonatal outcomes were observed, and adverse neonatal outcomes were noted.Results: Admission CTG results were unsatisfactory for 9% of women in the high-risk group and none in the low-risk group. Intrapartum NST was non reassuring in 51% of high-risk women and 6% of the low-risk group. Of the total number of neonates admitted to the NICU, 14 were from the low-risk group, while 50 were from the high-risk group.Conclusions: On admission NST in both low and high-risk women, the absence of category III NST predicted the absence of an adverse neonatal outcome most accurately. Even during labor in both high-risk and low-risk women, the absence of category III reassured the fetal well-being most precisely.

RÉSUMÉ

Background: The determination of the fetal condition during labour is important to minimize fetal mortality, morbidity and neurological sequelae of fetal hypoxia. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of intrapartum cardiotocography (CTG) in detecting fetal outcomes.Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was conducted at the department of obstetrics and gynecology in the centre for women and child health (CWCH), Ashulia, Dhaka from November 2020 to August 2022. The study was carried out with a total of 63 pregnant women (n=63) who had delivered their child either by lower uterine caesarian section (LUCS) or normal vaginal delivery (NVD) during the study period.Result: Among the participants, almost half participants (47.6%) were aged between 25-29 years. Intrapartum CTG was reactive in around half (54%) of the participants, while non-reactive in 46% of the participants. During the study period, intrapartum CTG was reactive in 34 patients. Of them, only 19 patients had an NVD, while 15 patients despite normal intrapartum CTG also underwent LUCS due to various reasons such as having meconium-stained liquor or slightly stained liquor, non-progressing labour or prolonged labour, premature rupture of the membrane (PROM), fear of NVD etc. During the study period, all twenty-nine patients having intrapartum non-reactive CTG underwent LUCS. During the study period, intrapartum CTG was non-reactive in 29 cases. However, after delivery, the baby’s APGAR score was ?7 for the 20 neonates of those 29 non-reactive CTG cases. On the other hand, intrapartum CTG was reactive in 34 of the participants. Among them, 3 neonates were delivered through NVD. However, meconium-stained liquor was found and the baby’s APGAR score was <7, which required NICU admission. In total, thirteen neonates (13, 20.6%) had required admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Conclusions: CTG is one of the reliable methods of monitoring the fetus. Non-reactive CTG record with a high probability indicates the likelihood of the presence of perinatal asphyxia. Instant and adequate decisions regarding obstetric intervention and optimal procedures should be taken if fetal distress is suspected.
