Association of Cesarean Delivery With Risk of Neurodevelopmental and Psychiatric Disorders in the Offspring: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
2019
This systematic review and meta-analysis examines the association between birth by cesarean delivery and risk of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders in the offspring compared with birth by vaginal delivery.
Neonatal sepsis caused by Ralstonia pickettii
2008
e describe the clinical case of apremature newborn, born at 26weeks by cesarean delivery, followed inthe neonatal intensive care unit. Themother was diabetic with adequate con-trol during pregnancy.Neonatal weight was 930 g;APGAR score 3 at 1 minute and 8 at 5minutes. She received forced ventilationby endotracheal tube and parenteralnutrition by a central venous catheter.She was treated with ampicillin for thefirst 20 days of life. At 25 days, apneaand bradychardia episodes occurredwith a progressive increment in sever-ity and frequency. Leukocytes, C-re-active protein, cerebral echography,and echocardiogram were normal.Oralfeeding was transiently stopped and rani-tidine treatment was starte…
Expired Tidal Volume and Respiratory Rate During Postnatal Stabilization of Newborn Infants Born at Term via Cesarean Delivery
2021
Objective To retrieve evolving respiratory measures in the first minutes after birth in normal neonates born at term using a respiratory function monitor. Study design We evaluated newborn babies delivered at term via cesarean after uncomplicated pregnancies. Immediately after birth, a respiratory function monitor with an adapted flowmeter and a face mask were applied at 2, 5, and 10 minutes after birth for 90 seconds in each period. We analyzed expired and inspired tidal volume, respiratory rate (RR), percentage of leakage, and number of analyzed breaths in each individual infant's recording using a respiratory research software. Results A total of 243 infants completed the study. The fina…
Standard international recommendations for gestational weight gain: suitability for our population
2020
Background: gestational weight gain (GWG) is one of the most commonly used indicators in prenatal care, and probably the most influential factor in perinatal outcomes. Objective: to determine the extent to which the GWG of pregnant women from the Ribera Health Department (Valencia) meets GWG international standards as recommended by the U.S. Institute of Medicine (IOM). Methods: a retrospective observational study of a sample of 4,361 women who gave birth at Hospital Universitario de la Ribera between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2015. Pregnant women were classified according to GWG international recommendations: adequate weight gain, above and below. Results: a higher GWG increases the…
Armbrust et al. 2015: Randomization questionable
2016
It is certainly possible that Cesarean delivery modifications like the one described by Armbrust, Hinkson, von Wiezsacker, and Henrich [1] are well received by mothers and partners, but some seriou...
How to Improve the Uterotomy Healing
1994
Abstract Suboptimal uterotomy healing following cesarean delivery or metroplastic operations may lead to considerable complications. New insights in the biology of wound healing and the availability of a variety of biologic response modifiers open the possibility to modulate the process of wound healing in order to gain clinical benefits. Can uterotomy healing be improved by local application of biosubstances? We developed an uterotomy model in the rat and measured the bursting pressure at defined times postwounding as a functional parameter of wound healing. In addition, the healing process was assessed by serial light microscopic histology. Uterotomy healing was investigated in the presen…
