Thromboembolism in Pregnancy - Recommendations
Thromboembolism in Pregnancy – Recommendations
The adaptation of the maternal hemostatic system to pregnancy predisposes women to an increased risk of thromboembolism.
In the developing world, the leading cause of maternal death is hemorrhage; however, in developed nations, where hemorrhage is more often successfully treated and prevented, thromboembolic disease is one of the leading causes of death. The prevalence and severity of this…

Thromboembolism in Pregnancy - An Overview
Thromboembolism in Pregnancy – An Overview
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) are collectively referred to as venous thromboembolic events. Approximately 75–80% of cases of pregnancy- associated venous thromboembolism are caused by DVT, and 20–25% of cases are caused by PE. One half of these events occur during pregnancy and one half occur during the postpartum period.
Pregnant women have a fourfold to fivefold increas…

Update on Immunization and Pregnancy: Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis Vaccination
Brief Overview:
The overwhelming majority of morbidity and mortality attributable to pertussis infection occurs in infants who are 3 months and younger. Infants do not begin their own vaccine series against pertussis until approximately 2 months of age. This leaves a window of significant vulnerability for newborns, many of whom contract serious pertussis infections from family members and…

Genetics of recurrent miscarriage and fetal loss: A review
Genetics of recurrent miscarriage and fetal loss: A review
Recurrent pregnancy loss or recurrent miscarriage is an important reproductive health issue, affecting2%–5% of couples. An embryo chromosomal error is responsible for 50–60% of recurrent cases; however, up to 30–50% remains an enigma. Successful pregnancy involves different maternal physiologic changes and certain complex interactions between the fetus and the mother by cytokines, angiogenic…

Amniotic Fluid: Technical Update on Physiology and Measurement
Amniotic Fluid: Technical Update on Physiology and Measurement
Amniotic fluid provides a supportive and protective environment for fetal development during pregnancy. Amniotic fluid assessment by ultrasound has become an integral part of fetal assessment in modern obstetrics. Abnormalities of fluid volume result in obstetrical intervention and further investigations. Owing to the frequent use of bedside ultrasound, much is known about theregulation of and…

Role of Exogenous Gonadotropins in Ovulation Induction
Exogenous Gonadotropins:
Gonadotropins are used to treat infertility in anovulatory women, usually after other less complicated and costly methods have failed. They are also used to help women with Hypogonadotropic amenorrhea (HA) to treat infertility as there is inadequate amounts of endogenous circulating follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in such patients.

Antepartum Fetal Surveillance: Clinical Considerations and Recommendations
Antepartum Fetal Surveillance: Clinical Considerations and Recommendations
The primary goal of antenatal testing is to identify fetuses at risk for intrauterine injury or death, so that these adverse outcomes can be prevented.
Since the development of technologies for electronic fetal heart rate monitoring in the 1970s, and with increasing sophistication of ultrasound and Doppler imaging, an array of techniques for antenatal assessment of fetal well being have been intr…
