INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to assess the utility of screening ferritin (<20 weeks of gestation) in pregnant patients on hemoglobin (Hgb) and hematocrit (Hct) later in gestation. METHODS: Pregnant patients who received nondiagnostic ferritin labs at less than 20 weeks of gestation from 2019 to 2021 were retrospectively identified. Patients were excluded if ferritin testing was conducted for diagnostic purposes or if the patient had a history of anemia. Labs at the time of registration, 28 weeks of gestation, and at delivery were analyzed. Anemia was defined as Hgb less than 11 g/dL. This study was approved by the University of Washington IRB, and patient consent was waived. RESULTS: Forty-four patients underwent routine ferritin screening at registration, with ferritin levels ranging from 10 to 136 ng/mL (average 52.5 ng/mL). Average Hgb/Hct at registration were 12.6 g/dL and 37.3%, respectively. At 28 weeks of gestation, Hgb/Hct were obtained on 42 patients, of whom 9 patients were diagnosed with anemia. Patients diagnosed with anemia had a screening ferritin level of 33.6 ng/mL, and nonanemic patients had a ferritin level of 57.4 ng/mL ( P =.1). When a cutoff of 50 ng/mL was studied to compare patients with “low” versus “normal” ferritin, ferritin less than or equal to 50 ng/mL had significantly lower Hgb levels at 28 weeks compared to those with ferritin greater than 50 ng/mL ( P =.013). On labor and delivery (L&D), Hgb/Hct was obtained on 44 patients, and 14 were diagnosed with anemia. Anemic patients on L&D had significantly lower screening ferritin compared to nonanemic, 31.9 and 62.2 ng/mL, respectively ( P =.016). CONCLUSION: Ferritin screening in early pregnancy may help predict lower Hgb in later gestation. Using a higher ferritin cutoff of 50 ng/mL in early pregnancy for identifying patients at risk for anemia in the third trimester may be warranted. Larger prospective studies are needed to evaluate further the utility of ferritin screening.

INTRODUCTION: Delivery rates among patients of advanced maternal age (AMA) are increasing. Prior studies have shown that AMA is associated with increased pregnancy risks and adverse outcomes. This study’s objective was to evaluate whether AMA is associated with an increase in obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASIS) rates among patients who undergo forceps-assisted vaginal deliveries (FAVDs). METHODS: This was an IRB-approved, retrospective cohort study of singleton gestations with FAVD at a single institution between 2017 and 2021. Primary outcome was rate of OASIS among patients with and without AMA. Secondary outcomes included quantitative blood loss (QBL), neonatal composite of subgaleal and cephalohematoma (adverse neonatal composite), and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission. Quantitative blood loss was assessed using Mann-Whitney U test. Remaining outcomes were assessed using multivariate logistic regression models while adjusting for provider clustering and confounding patient characteristics including episiotomy and birth weight. RESULTS: Nine hundred eighty-three records were included, 704 non-AMA and 279 AMA. Patients of AMA were more likely to be Caucasian and were less likely to be Hispanic, nulliparous, experience spontaneous labor, and undergo episiotomy. Patients of AMA did not demonstrate increased odds of OASIS compared to non-AMA patients (odds ratio [OR] 1.21 [0.78, 1.89]). When age was assessed continuously, there was no association between increasing age and rates of OASIS (OR 1.02 [0.98, 1.06]). There was no statistically significant difference in QBL among the two groups (357.0 versus 350.0 cc, P =.20), NICU admission or adverse neonatal composite. CONCLUSION: Advanced maternal age does not appear to be a risk factor for OASIS or other adverse outcomes in patients undergoing FAVD.
导读:高龄产妇(AMA)的分娩率正在上升。先前的研究表明，AMA与妊娠风险增加和不良后果有关。本研究的目的是评估AMA是否与产钳辅助阴道分娩(FAVDs)患者产科肛门括约肌损伤(OASIS)发生率的增加有关。方法:这是一项经irb批准的回顾性队列研究，研究对象是2017年至2021年在单一机构发生的单胎妊娠伴FAVD。主要结局是有或无AMA患者的OASIS发生率。次要结局包括定量失血量(QBL)、新生儿galeal下和头血肿复合(不良新生儿复合)和新生儿重症监护病房(NICU)入住情况。定量失血量采用Mann-Whitney U试验。在调整提供者聚类和混淆患者特征(包括外阴切开术和出生体重)的同时，使用多变量逻辑回归模型评估其余结果。结果:共纳入983例，其中非AMA 704例，AMA 279例。AMA患者多为白种人，西班牙裔、无产、自然分娩和会阴切开术患者较少。与非AMA患者相比，AMA患者的OASIS发生率没有增加(比值比[OR] 1.21[0.78, 1.89])。当持续评估年龄时，年龄的增加与OASIS发生率之间没有关联(OR为1.02[0.98,1.06])。两组间QBL (357.0 vs 350.0 cc, P = 0.20)、新生儿重症监护病房入院或新生儿不良综合情况均无统计学差异。结论:高龄产妇似乎不是FAVD患者发生OASIS或其他不良结局的危险因素。

INTRODUCTION: Youth bear a disproportionate burden of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy. Knowledge about sexual and reproductive health (SRH) is low among this population, and youth face numerous barriers to care. We sought to develop and assess a youth-led intervention to increase youth SRH knowledge, self-efficacy, and autonomy, which are key indicators in developing positive sexual health behaviors and skills to feel confident in accessing health services. METHODS: Nine interactive, youth-led, 2-hour sessions were held virtually or in-person over 9 months. Session topics included human immunodeficiency virus and STIs, contraception, reproductive anatomy, menstrual health, healthy relationships, sexual decision-making, sexual violence, substance use, goal setting, gender identity and sexuality, and navigating health care services as an adolescent. Monetary compensation and transportation were provided. Sexual and reproductive health knowledge, self-efficacy, and autonomy were assessed using validated scales via an electronic questionnaire before and after implementing the intervention (IRB approved). Paired t tests were used to assess intervention effect. RESULTS: Thirty-seven participants with a mean age of 15.8 years (SD 1.13) were enrolled. All lived in the greater Baltimore area, and the majority self-identified as female. 52% were Black/African American, 28% Asian/Asian American, 12% White, and 8% Hispanic/Latino. Average attendance across sessions was 88%. Participants showed improvement in SRH knowledge (P=.02), advocacy and self-efficacy (P<.001), and personal safety and autonomy (P<.01). They reported increased comfort using trusted sites to procure SRH information (P<.01). CONCLUSION: A youth-led SRH intervention effectively increased SRH knowledge, self-efficacy, and autonomy. Further work should be done to explore the effects and expansion of peer-to-peer SRH education.

INTRODUCTION: Preeclampsia (PEC) and fetal growth restriction (FGR) share common pathophysiology of placental insufficiency. In pregnancies complicated by PEC, the incidence of FGR increases significantly. We sought to examine the timing of FGR development in patients with PEC. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with PEC and singleton pregnancy who delivered at 23 weeks or greater. Patients who had been diagnosed with FGR prior to PEC diagnosis, those who were diagnosed with FGR at the same time as PEC, and those who delivered immediately after PEC diagnosis were excluded. Demographics were compared between patients with FGR and those without FGR. We plotted Kaplan-Meier curves for the interval from the diagnosis of PEC to the development of FGR. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to estimate the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for FGR. Our IRB approved this analysis. RESULTS: Of 392 patients with PEC, 31 (7.9%) developed FGR. Compared to patients who did not develop FGR, patients who developed FGR were more likely to have early-onset PEC and lower maternal weight and were less likely to have gestational diabetes (P<.05). The incidence rate of FGR increased by 11.6% each week from the PEC diagnosis. Compared to patients with late-onset PEC, those with early-onset PEC had a significantly higher cumulative incidence of FGR (P<.01). The Cox proportional hazards model showed that early-onset PEC was associated with FGR (adjusted HR 4.12, 95% CI 1.19–14.33) compared to late-onset PEC. CONCLUSION: Patients with early-onset PEC had a significantly higher incidence of FGR compared to those with late-onset PEC. There was a high cumulative incidence rate of FGR in patients with early-onset PEC. Patients with PEC should be followed by serial fetal growth ultrasound.
子痫前期(PEC)和胎儿生长受限(FGR)有共同的胎盘功能不全病理生理。在合并PEC的妊娠中，FGR的发生率显著增加。我们试图研究在PEC患者中FGR发展的时间。方法:这是一项回顾性队列研究，研究对象是分娩时间在23周或更大的PEC和单胎妊娠患者。排除在PEC诊断前已诊断为FGR的患者、与PEC同时诊断为FGR的患者以及PEC诊断后立即分娩的患者。比较FGR患者和非FGR患者的人口统计学特征。我们绘制了从诊断为PEC到发展为FGR的时间间隔的Kaplan-Meier曲线。采用Cox比例风险模型估计FGR的调整风险比(hr)。我们的IRB批准了这个分析。结果:392例PEC患者中，31例(7.9%)发生FGR。与未发生FGR的患者相比，发生FGR的患者更容易发生早发性PEC和较低的母亲体重，更不容易发生妊娠糖尿病(P< 0.05)。自PEC诊断以来，FGR的发病率每周增加11.6%。与迟发性PEC患者相比，早发性PEC患者FGR累积发生率显著高于晚发性PEC患者(P< 0.01)。Cox比例风险模型显示，与迟发性PEC相比，早发性PEC与FGR相关(校正HR 4.12, 95% CI 1.19-14.33)。结论:早发性PEC患者FGR发生率明显高于晚发性PEC患者。早发性PEC患者FGR的累积发病率较高。患有PEC的患者应进行连续的胎儿生长超声检查。

INTRODUCTION: Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a rare placental anomaly associated with high perinatal mortality; it is predominantly seen in female fetuses and very few cases have been reported. The evaluation of first- and second-trimester products of conception is of the utmost importance when assessing molar pathologies such as complete hydatidiform moles, partial hydatidiform moles, and nonmolar samples. METHODS: We report a monochorionic 46XX,69XXY pregnancy with placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) with possible androgenetic biparental mosaicism etiology (Instituto Nacional de Perinatología Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes approval number P-270-18). RESULTS: The patient is a 28-year-old gravida 2, para 1, female with no notable past medical history. She had a previous pregnancy resulting in an uncomplicated abdominal delivery at 39 weeks of gestation 5 years prior. The patient was transferred to our health center at 24.2 weeks of gestation with a molar component because of USG data consistent with a probable hepatic tumor, perimembranous ventricular septal defect, and probable PMD. Ultrasound at 24.3 weeks of gestation demonstrated a single intrauterine pregnancy with one-third of the placenta appearing normal, the second third showing irregular cystic masses, and the remaining third with larger cysts. Placental mesenchymal dysplasia was diagnosed retrospectively based on data from the gross, histologic, and genetic components. CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of PMD with a 46XX,69XXY karyotype. A radical and cautious approach to PMD cases is needed because of the lack of sufficient data and reports.
简介:胎盘间充质发育不良(PMD)是一种罕见的胎盘异常，与高围产期死亡率相关;它主要见于女性胎儿，很少有病例报道。在评估臼齿病变(如完全葡萄胎、部分葡萄胎和非葡萄胎)时，妊娠早期和中期产物的评估是最重要的。方法:我们报告了一个单绒毛膜46XX,69XXY妊娠胎盘间质发育不良(PMD)，可能的雄激素性双亲本嵌合病因(Instituto Nacional de Perinatología Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes批准号P-270-18)。结果:患者28岁，妊娠2期，女，1期，既往无明显病史。5年前，她有过一次妊娠，在妊娠39周时进行了一次简单的腹部分娩。由于USG数据与可能的肝肿瘤、膜外室间隔缺损和可能的PMD一致，该患者在妊娠24.2周时因磨牙成分转移到我们的健康中心。妊娠24.3周超声显示单次宫内妊娠，1 / 3胎盘正常，2 / 3出现不规则囊性团块，其余1 / 3出现较大囊肿。根据大体、组织学和遗传成分的资料回顾性诊断胎盘间充质发育不良。结论:据我们所知，这是首例核型为46XX、69XXY的PMD病例。由于缺乏足够的数据和报告，需要对PMD病例采取激进和谨慎的方法。

INTRODUCTION: Maternal morbidity and mortality rates in the United States have increased in the last two decades with a disproportionate effect on women of color. Military Tricare coverage models universal health care access; however, in studies looking at births in military treatment facilities, disparities still exist for women of color. This study analyzes maternal delivery outcomes for all women with Tricare coverage including deliveries in the civilian sector. METHODS: Data from 6.2 million births in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention WONDER Linked Birth/Infant Death Records for 2017–2019 were analyzed for all-cause morbidity (transfusions, perineal lacerations, uterine rupture, unplanned hysterectomy, and intensive care unit admissions), severe maternal morbidity (SMM) (excludes lacerations), and SMM excluding transfusion. Risk ratios were calculated comparing overall maternal morbidity rates between Tricare, Medicaid, self-pay, and private insurance. In addition, risk ratios were calculated between insurance types stratified by race. RESULTS: Compared to private insurance, Tricare insurance had significantly reduced risk of all-cause maternal morbidity. Compared to White women, Black women with Tricare and all other insurances had a decreased risk of all-cause morbidity, but a significantly increased risk of SMM and SMM without transfusion. Asian women had significant increased risk of all-cause, SMM and SMM without transfusion. There was no significant difference in the risk of morbidity for women of color with Tricare insurance compared to women of color with Medicaid, private, or self-pay insurance. CONCLUSION: The risk of severe maternal morbidity remains elevated for women of color despite access to Tricare health insurance.

METHODS: Data from 6.2 million births in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention WONDER Linked Birth/Infant Death Records for 2017–2019 were analyzed for all-cause morbidity (transfusions, perineal lacerations, uterine rupture, unplanned hysterectomy, and intensive care unit admissions), severe maternal morbidity (SMM) (excludes lacerations), and SMM excluding transfusion. Risk ratios were calculated comparing overall maternal morbidity rates between Tricare, Medicaid, self-pay, and private insurance. In addition, risk ratios were calculated between insurance types stratified by race. RESULTS: Compared to private insurance, Tricare insurance had significantly reduced risk of all-cause maternal morbidity. Compared to White women, Black women with Tricare and all other insurances had a decreased risk of all-cause morbidity, but a significantly increased risk of SMM and SMM without transfusion. Asian women had significant increased risk of all-cause, SMM and SMM without transfusion. There was no significant difference in the risk of morbidity for women of color with Tricare insurance compared to women of color with Medicaid, private, or self-pay insurance. CONCLUSION: The risk of severe maternal morbidity remains elevated for women of color despite access to Tricare health insurance.","PeriodicalId":19405,"journal":{"name":"Obstetrics & Gynecology","volume":"64 1","pages":"41S - 41S"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89361879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

INTRODUCTION: Leiomyomas affect most women throughout their lifetime with an incidence of roughly 80%. Approximately 30% of these women develop symptomology that warrants intervention. With such a large prevalence, it is important to highlight patterns in treatment modalities to guide effective management for all women with this condition. METHODS: We utilized weighted survey results from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s 2017–2019 National Survey of Family Growth. After isolating data to those who reported a leiomyoma diagnosis, we performed a test of equal proportions (P<.05) among the nine listed therapies compared to the following socioeconomic factors: race, age, education, and insurance status. RESULTS: The incidence of leiomyomas was 7.3% (449/6,141). Hispanic women and those with state-sponsored or uninsured status were more likely to report receiving none of the listed treatments (P=.05 and .02). Women who marked “Other” were most likely to seek alternative medicine (P=.03). Hysterectomy was most likely for Black, White, and 40- to 49-year-old women (P=.02 and P<.001). Nonhysterectomy procedures were most seen with government-sponsored health care, private insurance, and women with graduate degrees (P<.001 and P=.02). Pharmacologically, White women were more likely to receive progesterone-releasing intrauterine devices (P=.02), women 19–29 were more likely to use hormonal medicine (P<.001), and those with government insurance were more likely to receive narcotics (P=.006). CONCLUSION: All socioeconomic factors held significant inconsistencies in the utilization of various leiomyoma treatments. As this condition will affect most women, this analysis highlights the need for future standardization to ensure optimal treatment implementation and patient outcomes.

INTRODUCTION: This meta-analysis aims to determine whether early treatment of hyperglycemia in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and prediabetic pregnancies improve perinatal outcomes. METHODS: PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, ClinicalTrials.gov and Web of Science were systematically searched up to June 30, 2022. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of early treatment for gestational diabetes mellitus (International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups [IADPSG] or Carpenter and Coustan [C&C] criteria) and prediabetes (HbA1c 5.7–6.4%) before 20 weeks of gestation were considered eligible. Random-effects model meta-analysis was used to pool the odds ratios (OR) and/or mean differences (MD) with 95% CI. Furthermore, subgroup analysis was performed stratifying by indication for intervention (GDM versus prediabetic). RESULTS: Seven RCTs including 2,757 pregnant individuals, of whom 647 had positive screening before 20 weeks of gestation, were included. Of 647 individuals, 346 were allocated to early treatment and 301 to the routine treatment. There was no significant difference in terms of gestational age at delivery (MD –0.21 [95% CI: −0.44, 0.02], P=.089), rate of cesarean delivery (OR 0.93 [95% CI: 0.64, 1.34], P=.394), hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (OR 1.19 [95% CI: 0.59, 2.39], P=.341), any diabetic medication use (OR 1.31 [95% CI: 0.89, 1.93], P=.177), and neonatal hypoglycemia (OR 1.02 [95% CI: 0.50, 2.08], P=.952). However, there was a decreased risk of macrosomia (OR 0.42 [95% CI: 0.19, 0.92], P=.031) and increased need for insulin use (OR 2.23 [95% CI: 1.30, 3.84], P=.004) for early treatment group. After separate analyses on GDM and prediabetics as distinct groups, the risk of macrosomia was not decreased for GDM and prediabetic subgroups after early treatment. CONCLUSION: Treatment in early pregnancy for GDM or prediabetes does not appear to improve the maternal or neonatal outcomes.

INTRODUCTION: Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination significantly decreases the rate of HPV-related diseases; however, vaccine uptake is limited in the United States. New York State set a goal of 80% HPV vaccination by 2023. First-dose rates at our Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in 2021 were 68% in girls aged 13–19 years and 31% in women aged 20–29 years. Little research surrounding barriers to HPV vaccination in adults exists. METHODS: An anonymized survey was distributed to providers at a network of FQHCs using REDCap. Question domains included provider demographics, provider attitudes, and practices. Questions were subdivided by patient age group. Descriptive statistics were analyzed. RESULTS: Our response rate was 15%. Respondent specialties included family practice (49%), women's health (27%), pediatrics (13%), and internal medicine (11%). Frequency of vaccine recommendation decreased as patient age increased. Most common barriers for vaccination included previous vaccination, parental or patient objection, and lack of time for counseling. Additional barriers in the 19–45 age group included concerns about efficacy and cost. Common reasons for patient refusal included objection to vaccination, feeling low risk for infection, lack of knowledge, and side effect concerns. CONCLUSION: The expansion of HPV vaccination eligibility to include women aged 27–45 in 2018 provided an opportunity to protect more patients against HPV-related diseases. Patient and provider knowledge about HPV risk and vaccine efficacy can limit the implementation. Significant barriers for vaccine administration included the lack of provider engagement, knowledge about the vaccine, and time for counseling. This study underscores the need for provider and patient education about the benefits of HPV vaccination, especially in the 19–45 age group.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to compare readmission rates for early pregnancy concerns in the emergency department (ED) among patients that speak English versus Spanish as their primary language. METHODS: From January 1, 2020 to June 1, 2021, we conducted a chart review to identify pregnant patients presenting to the ED using ICD-10 codes for pregnancy and first-trimester diagnoses (n=383). Charts were excluded if pregnancy was beyond 13 weeks or an ultrasound-confirmed ectopic pregnancy. Readmission was a separate ED encounter during the first trimester of that same pregnancy. Preventable readmission was one that could have been prevented if the patient had received correct counseling, diagnosis, or management at the index admission. Our primary outcome was frequency of ED readmission among English versus Spanish speakers. This protocol was approved for IRB exemption by the University of Texas. RESULTS: Threatened abortion was the most common diagnosis among both groups. Readmissions were more frequent among Spanish speakers (40% versus 26% [P=.01]). Preventable readmissions were more common among Spanish speakers (31% versus 25%). The majority of preventable readmissions (81%) among Spanish speakers could have been prevented if correct management was offered, compared to 25% in English speakers (P=.03). CONCLUSION: Spanish and English speakers present with similar types of early pregnancy concerns, but Spanish speakers are not offered management of early pregnancy concerns at the same frequency. Standardization of care for early pregnancy concerns in the ED may help reduce language-based disparities in quality and equity of care.
简介:本研究的目的是比较以英语和西班牙语为主要语言的早期妊娠患者在急诊科(ED)的再入院率。方法:从2020年1月1日至2021年6月1日，我们进行了一项图表回顾，以确定使用ICD-10代码进行妊娠和早期妊娠诊断的妊娠患者(n=383)。如果怀孕超过13周或超声确认宫外孕，则排除图表。再入院是一个单独的ED遭遇在同一怀孕的前三个月。可预防的再入院是指如果患者在入院时接受了正确的咨询、诊断或管理，就可以预防的再入院。我们的主要结局是英语和西班牙语患者再入院的频率。该方案已获得德克萨斯大学IRB豁免批准。结果:先兆流产是两组中最常见的诊断。西班牙语患者的再入院率更高(40% vs 26% [P= 0.01])。可预防的再入院在说西班牙语的人群中更为常见(31%对25%)。如果提供正确的管理，西班牙语患者中大多数可预防的再入院(81%)是可以避免的，而英语患者中这一比例为25% (P=.03)。结论:西班牙语和英语患者出现的早孕问题类型相似，但西班牙语患者未获得相同频率的早孕问题管理。在急诊科对早孕问题的标准化护理可能有助于减少基于语言的护理质量和公平性的差异。
