RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including intrauterine fetal demise, spontaneous preterm labor, and meconium-stained amniotic fluid. Studies have yet to determine if patients with a history of pregnancy complicated by cholestasis had an association with more severe adverse outcomes in a subsequent pregnancy complicated by cholestasis. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study of multiparous, singleton, nonanomalous live gestations complicated by cholestasis at Elmhurst Hospital Center from 2005 to 2019. We compared rates of adverse outcomes in multiparous pregnancies complicated by cholestasis with versus without prior cholestasis. Our primary outcome was rates of spontaneous preterm labor. Our secondary outcomes included rates of iatrogenic preterm birth, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, cesarean delivery for nonreassuring fetal heart tracing. Chi-square and multivariate regression tests were used to determine the strength of association. In all analyses, a p-value less than 0.05 and 95% confidence interval not crossing 1.00 indicated statistical significance. Mount Sinai Icahn School of Medicine Institutional Review Board approval was obtained for this project. RESULTS: Of the 795 multiparous pregnancies complicated by cholestasis, 618 (77.7%) had no prior history of cholestasis and 177 (23.3%) had prior history of cholestasis. Multiparous pregnancies with history of cholestasis had higher rates of prior preterm birth, earlier gestational age at diagnosis and delivery, and were more likely to receive ursodeoxycholic acid therapy. Pregnancies with history of cholestasis were not associated with spontaneous preterm labor in subsequent pregnancies with cholestasis, but history of cholestasis was associated with iatrogenic preterm birth and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission. After adjusting for confounders, the association with iatrogenic preterm birth and NICU admission were no longer statistically significant. There was no significant association between history of cholestasis and other adverse obstetric outcomes. CONCLUSION: Findings suggests that history of prior cholestasis is not associated with worsening outcomes in subsequent pregnancies complicated by cholestasis. KEY POINTS: · Prior cholestasis may not alter risk in subsequent pregnancies.. · Unclear relationship between cholestasis and hepatobiliary disease.. · Studies needed to develop cholestasis screening protocol..

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Increasing placental thickness is associated with adverse outcomes including earlier gestational age at delivery, lower birthweight, and lower umbilical artery pH. We aim to determine whether mid-trimester placenta previa thickness is associated with persistence of previa at time of delivery. STUDY DESIGN: Single-center retrospective cohort study of singleton gestations with previa diagnosed at 18-24 weeks delivering between 2015 and 2019. The thickest portion of the placenta was measured in a longitudinal plane on transabdominal imaging to determine placental thickness. We defined three cohorts: 1) thick placenta (>1 standard deviation above the mean), 2) thin placenta (>1 standard deviation below the mean), and 3) average placenta (within 1 standard deviation above or below the mean). Primary outcome was previa persistence at time of delivery. Secondary outcomes included postpartum hemorrhage, cesarean delivery, placenta accreta spectrum, and maternal morbidity composite (use of Bakri balloon, B-lynch, or O'Leary, peripartum hysterectomy, blood transfusion, ICU admission, or death). In all analyses, average thickness was used as the base comparator. RESULTS: Of 239 pregnancies with mid-trimester previa there were 34 thin, 166 average, and 39 thick placentas. Patients with thick placenta were older, more likely to have prior cesarean delivery, fibroid uterus, and delivery at an earlier gestational age. After adjusting for confounders, thick placenta was associated with persistent previa (aOR 6.85 [3.13-15.00]) and cesarean delivery (aOR 2.76 [1.26-6.08]). CONCLUSION: At diagnosis of mid-trimester previa, thick placenta is associated with persistence at time of delivery and delivery by cesarean section. This suggests placental thickness may assist with risk stratification and coordination of care.

RESUMO

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Rates of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) throughout the world continue to increase associated with the increasing rates of obesity. Given this epidemiologic burden, the importance of proper screening, diagnosis, and management cannot be understated. This review focuses on the current screening guidelines utilized throughout the world and new data recently published regarding the most optimal screening techniques and future directions for research. RECENT FINDINGS: Despite unanimous opinion that GDM warrants screening, the optimal screening regimen remains controversial. Notably, in the United States per the consensus recommendation by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, a 2-step screening approach is often used. Recently, there have been multiple studies published that have compared the 1-step and 2-step screening process with respect to GDM incidence and perinatal outcomes. These new findings are summarized below. SUMMARY: Utilization of the 1-step screening as opposed to the 2-step screening results in an increased diagnosis of GDM without significant population level benefit in outcomes. However, these studies remain underpowered to allow for meaningful comparison of outcomes in those diagnosed with GDM.

RESUMO

Recent case reports suggest an association between severe intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy and fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies, including vitamin K deficiency. Screening for coagulopathy and fat-soluble vitamin deficiency has been proposed as a possible strategy to identify pregnancies at additional risk of adverse outcomes and allow for earlier risk-reducing iatrogenic preterm delivery. This report highlights a case of routine screening that resulted in the detection of subclinical coagulopathy that allowed for earlier intervention and delivery of a healthy neonate at 34 weeks of gestation. Further prospective studies are needed to determine the clinical use of routine screening in detecting coagulopathy and fat-soluble vitamin deficiency in cases of severe cholestasis.
