RESUMO
Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is common gynecological endocrinopathy characterized by chronic anovulation and hyperandrogenism affecting 5-10% of women worldwide. It is a heterogenous, multifactorial, complex genetic disorder with uncertain etiology and is one of the most common treatable cause of infertility. Aim:To study the various clinical presentations in polycystic ovarian syndrome. Methodology: Present study is cross sectional observational study carried out in tertiary care center. This study was performed in the Out Patient Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Results: The mean age of 41 patients in the study was 23.6 years. Most common presenting symptom in patients is menstrual irregularities (89%) followed by infertility and hirsutism. USG (abdomen & pelvis) showing polycystic ovarian syndrome ovaries. Around 39% patients with PCOS developed insulin resistance. Conclusion:PCOS is more prevalent disorder among women of reproductive age with lifelong complications. Most challenging aspects of this syndrome is its ambiguous diagnostic criteria and wide complexity of characteristics
RESUMO
Background:One of the main factors affecting maternal morbidity and mortality is the decision to delivery interval (DDI) that is, the time taken from the decision to take the patient up for caesarean section to the delivery of the fetus. Method:This is a retrospective observational study conducted over a period of twelve months where 370 patients were studied. Results:No delay was seen in 49.2% cases whereas most delay was noted after decision by obstetricians to transfer patient to OT(22.2%). Conclusion:In order to get favourable maternal and fetal outcome decision to delivery interval should be within 30 minutes and this can be made possible if factors like results of blood investigations and cross matching of blood can be made available on time.
RESUMO
Background: Pregnancy beyond term is associated with adverse maternal and perinatal outcome. The aim of the study was to estimate the maternal and perinatal outcome in pregnancies at and beyond 41weeks of gestation. It was a prospective study of 140 patients with pregnancy beyond Methodology:41weeks fulfilling the eligibility criteria and admitted and delivered in department of obstetrics and gynaecology at a tertiary care hospital. We examined its association with following outcomes: age, parity, genetic factors, bishop's score at admission, mode of delivery, induction rate, meconium stained amniotic fluid, oligohydramnios, perinatal and neonatal morbidity, perineal tear, postpartum haemorrhage, maternal morbidity and mortality etc. Results:Out of 140 patients, majority was the age group of 21-25 years, 68 (48.6%) patients were primigravida while 72 (51.4%) patients were multigravida. Maximum patients 65% were not in labour whereas 35% were in labour. In 51 (36.4%) patients mode of delivery was caesarean section, in which most common indication being foetal distress in 25.5% followed by meconium stained amniotic fluid in 17.6%. In present study perinatal morbidity like stillbirth, RDS were 2.86% & 25.8% respectively. Maternal morbidity like PPH, tear and wound infection were 4.31%, 6.4%, 0.7% respectively. Conclusions: With Regular antenatal check-up, incidence of post term pregnancy can be decreased and labour induction should be considered at 41weeks to prevent maternal and perinatal complications.
