Résumé
Background: Incidence of caesarean section is rapidly rising over last two decades and one fourth is contributed by caesarean section in second stage. The objective of this study was to study of fetomaternal outcome in second stage caesarean section.Methods: Prospective observational study was done in 80 women undergoing second stage caesarean section from December 2015 to March 2017 at Lady Hardinge Medical Collage Delhi. These women observed from labour to caesarean section in second stage of labour till post-operative period for any complication. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed in these women.Results: Caesarean section rate was 22% in which 3.9% were done in second stage of labour. Most common gestational age being 39-40 weeks (47%). Most common indication being deep transverse arrest (41.25%). Intraoperative complication as bladder injury (5%), extension of uterine incision (23%), PPH (33%) and need for blood transfusion (31%) and post-operative complication as wound sepsis in 58% and 20% requiring resuturing, post-operative fever, prolong hospital stay, prolonged catheterization etc. neonatal complications as severe birth asphyxia (2.5%), respiratory distress (55%), need for mechanical ventilation.Conclusions: Thus, caesarean section done in second stage of labour is associated with increased maternal and neonatal morbidity.
Résumé
To observe the maternal and neonatal outcomes among women with diabetes mellitus in pregnancy as compared to healthy control. A case-control study involving 400 women with DM who delivered between 2005 to 2009 was done with age-matched control group. A total of 305 women (76.25%) were gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on diet control, 79 (19.75%) were GDM on insulin and 16 (4%) were pre-existing DM. The mean body mass index of the women with diabetes was higher compared to the age-matched healthy women (p <0.001). Approximately one-third of diabetic woman had no antecedent risk factor. About half of the women with diabetes (n=205, 51.3%) had unplanned pregnancy. Women with DM had greater risk of having spontaneous miscarriage and caesarean section (OR 1.4, 95% CI (1.2-1.7), OR 1.3, 95% CI (1.1- 1.5) respectively). Women with diabetes on insulin had higher risk of preterm delivery and caesarean delivery as compared to those with diet control, (OR 1.7, 95% CI (1.2- 2.5), OR 2.5, 95% CI (1.6-4.1) respectively). The incidence of macrosomia, low Apgar score, need for NICU admission, hypoglycaemia and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) were higher among women with diabetes as compared to healthy control, and especially in those on insulin. Women with higher HbA1c had significantly increased need for caesarean section and NICU admission with higher incidence of macrosomia and RDS. The overall outcome of women with diabetes especially with higher level HbA1c remained poor as compared to a normal pregnancy.
