Objective: The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the technique of applying Nakornping uterine compression suture after caesarean section and to evaluate the effectiveness of this surgical intervention for the management of uterine atony resistant to traditional medical treatments. Materials and Methods: The medical records of 3,949 patients who had caesarean deliveries at Nakornping Hospital from October 2011 to September 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Uterine atony occurred in 137 caesarean delivering patients. Sixty one patients with persistent uterine atony after receiving bimanual compression, uterine massage and uterotonic medications as per the hospital standard treatment protocol for postpartum hemorrhage management were treated with the placement of the Nakornping uterine compression suture. The mean time to perform the procedure was 2.2 ± 0.4 minutes. Results: For all sixty one patients receiving Nakornping uterine compression suture, the treatment was successful. Nakornping uterine compression suture was sufficient to stop the bleeding immediately in 100% of the patients. There were no complications observed either during or after the procedure. All sixty one patients had normal lochia post caesarean delivery. The patients were discharged after a median of 4 days hospital stay. When pelvic ultrasound was done on day 3 and day 7 post operations on two patients, the study showed normal uterine contour and no fluid was found in the uterine cavity. Hysterosalpingography was performed on two patients on week 6 after the procedure, the study revealed normal findings. Four patients (6.6%) had subsequent pregnancies with caesarean delivery. Conclusion: Application of Nakornping uterine compression suture was effective in treating uterine atony after caesarean section. It is a simple and rapid procedure in the clinical practice.

Objective: to determine the rate and patterns of hysterosalpingography (HSG) abnormality among infertile women at Srinagarind Hospital, Khon Kean University, Thailand. Materials and methods: The study patients were identified through the reports of the Infertile Clinic. In our hospital, HSG was routinely performed in all women undergoing an evaluation of infertility problems. Medical records were abstracted for baseline characteristics, types of infertility, and details of HSG findings. A 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated to demonstrate the precision of data. Logistic regression model was used to determine an independent impact of the type of infertility on abnormal HSG findings. Results: Overall, 589 women were reviewed. The mean ± SD age was 32.9 ± 5.0 years. Secondary infertility was noted in 163 (27.7%) women. Abnormal HSG was noted in 227 (38.5%, 95% CI, 34.6%-42.6%) women. The most common abnormal HSG findings were tubal occlusion and hydrosalpinx. When adjusted with patients’ age, women with secondary infertility carried a higher risk of having abnormal HSG finding compared to those with primary infertility (an adjusted odds ratio, 2.44; 95% CI, 1.68-3.54). Conclusion: Rate of abnormal HSG findings among infertile women in our setting was approximately 40%. Type of infertility was independently associated with abnormal HSG findings.

Objectives: To determine the incidence of postpartum glucose intolerance among women with gestational diabetes (GDM) and its associated factors. Methods: A total of 110 GDM women who delivered at Siriraj Hospital were enrolled. A 2-hour 75-gram glucose tolerance test and were offered at 6-12 weeks postpartum to determine incidence of glucose intolerance, which include impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Demographic data, GDM risks and diagnosis data, and delivery data were collected. Incidence of glucose intolerance was estimated. Comparison was made between glucose intolerance groups to determine possible associated factors. Results: Mean age was 33.7±5.1 years, and 46% were nulliparous. According to pre-pregnancy BMI, 45.5% were overweight/obese, and 24.5% gained weight greater than recommendation. Majority was GDM A1 (85.5%), and 63.6% were diagnosed before 20 weeks of gestation. Mean postpartum follow up time was at 6.2 ± 0.9 weeks. Incidence of postpartum IGT and T2DM were 35.5% and 10% respectively. No difference was found between groups in terms of pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain, weight retention, and severity of GDM. However, HbA1c level was significantly greater among women with postpartum T2DM than IGT and normal results (6.1±0.5%, 5.6±0.4%, and 5.4±0.3% respectively, p 6% significantly increased the chance of T2DM (33.3% vs. 53.4%, p=0.001). Conclusion: Among GDM pregnant women, incidence of postpartum glucose intolerance was 45.5% (35.5% IGT and 10% T2DM). HbA1c level of >6% significantly increased the chance of postpartum T2DM.

Objectives: To evaluate association between the maternal body mass index (BMI) and subtherapeutic serum magnesium level in pregnant women with severe preeclampsia who received magnesium sulfate therapy at Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital. Study design: Retrospective cross-sectional study. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study from October 1, 2012 to March 31, 2015 was performed to estimate the effect of maternal BMI on serum magnesium level. And 565(2.99 %) pregnant women had severe preeclampsia and eclampsia diagnosed and received magnesium sulfate therapy at Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital. Inclusion criteria was pregnant women delivered at gestational age ≥ 24 weeks, not expectant management, received magnesium sulfate in regimen loading dose 4 grams, followed by maintenance dose 1 gram/hour intravenously, and monitored serum magnesium level. Serum magnesium level was monitored initially at 3-4 hours after loading dose, and then monitored every 4 hours during magnesium sulfate infusion. The first serum magnesium level after loading dose was used in the study. Association between maternal BMI and subtherapeutic serum magnesium level (magnesium level 1.1 gm/dL) and thrombocytopenia seem to have higher rate of therapeutic magnesium level significantly (P value < 0.05). Conclusion: Most cases of women with severe preeclampsia at Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital had subtherapeutic serum magnesium level when magnesium sulfate was administered in regimen loading dose 4 grams, followed by 1 gram per hour intravenously. Overweight and obesity were high risk factor contributing to subtherapeutic of serum magnesium level.

Neonatal outcomes consist with rate of preterm birth, low birth weight, neonatal resuscitation and stillbirth were also worse in the study group.","PeriodicalId":36742,"journal":{"name":"Thai Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology","volume":"24 1","pages":"202-208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66679287","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}
Objective : To determine incidence and associated factors of gestational diabetes (GDM) diagnosed at 24-28 weeks of gestation. Methods : A total of 200 pregnant women at risk for GDM who attended antenatal clinic before 20 weeks of gestation and had negative GDM screening tests were enrolled. All women received a second screening test at 24-28 weeks of gestation, according to institutional guideline. Data were retrieved, including demographic data, GDM risks and diagnosis, weight gain during pregnancy, and labor and delivery data. Incidence of GDM diagnosed by second screening test was estimated and possible associated factors were identified. Results : Mean maternal age was 31 years, and 51% were nulliparous. Most common GDM risks were age >30 years (70%) and family history of diabetes (46%). Majority of women had normal pre-pregnancy BMI (63%) and normal weight gain (43.5%), while 38% gained weight greater than recommendation. Incidence of GDM diagnosed at 24-28 weeks of gestation was 15%. Various characteristics were comparable among late-onset GDM and non-GDM group, including age, parity, pre-pregnancy BMI, and gestational weight gain. However, late-onset GDM group had significant greater second trimester weight gain (7.2±2.8 kg vs. 5.9±2.4 kg, p=0.01). Compared to women with normal GCT, abnormal 50-g GCT and abnormal 1 OGTT value at first screening significantly increased the risk of late-onset GDM (9.5%, 18.2%, and 47.4% respectively, p<0.001). Conclusion : Incidence of GDM diagnosed at 24-28 weeks of gestation was 15%. High second trimester weight gain and abnormal first screening results significantly increased the risk of late diagnosed GDM.
目的:了解妊娠24 ~ 28周诊断的妊娠期糖尿病(GDM)的发病率及相关因素。方法:共纳入200名妊娠20周前到产前诊所就诊且GDM筛查试验阴性的有GDM风险的孕妇。根据机构指南,所有妇女在妊娠24-28周时接受第二次筛查试验。检索数据,包括人口统计数据、GDM风险和诊断、妊娠期间体重增加、分娩和分娩数据。估计经第二次筛查试验诊断为GDM的发生率,并确定可能的相关因素。结果:产妇平均年龄31岁,51%为无产。最常见的GDM风险是年龄在50 - 30岁之间(70%)和有糖尿病家族史(46%)。大多数女性孕前体重指数正常(63%),体重增加正常(43.5%),而38%的女性体重增加超过建议。妊娠24-28周诊断为GDM的发生率为15%。迟发性GDM组和非GDM组的各种特征具有可比性,包括年龄、胎次、孕前BMI和妊娠体重增加。然而,迟发性GDM组妊娠中期体重增加显著高于对照组(7.2±2.8 kg vs. 5.9±2.4 kg, p=0.01)。与GCT正常的女性相比,首次筛查时50 g GCT异常和1 OGTT值异常的女性发生晚发型GDM的风险显著增加(分别为9.5%、18.2%和47.4%,p<0.001)。结论:妊娠24 ~ 28周诊断为GDM的发生率为15%。妊娠中期体重增加和首次筛查结果异常显著增加晚期诊断GDM的风险。

Objective: To identify which recommendations of weight gain aresuitable for Thai pregnant women to deliver a normal birth weight neonate. Materials and Methods : This retrospective study was performed by reviewing 1,657 medical records of singleton pregnant women who delivered normal birth weight healthy neonates at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Prapokklao Hospital during July 1 st , 2013 – June 30 th , 2014. Pre-pregnancy BMI was categorized according to U.S.Institute of Medicine (IOM) 2009. Gestational weight gain and pregnancy outcomes were compared using IOM and Thai Siriraj Hospital recommendations. One-way ANOVA was used to compare continuous data and Chi-square test was used to compare discrete data among two groups. Results: Mean gestational weight gain of our population in underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese groups were 13.73±5.43 kg, 13.52±5.63 kg, 11.35±5.65 kg, and 8.81±7.41 kg, respectively. Significant difference of maternal age, pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational weight gain and neonatal birth weight were found among groups (p<0.001). About one-third of both underweight group and normal weight group gained the appropriate weight based on the IOM recommendations whereas two-thirds of both groups gained the appropriate weight using Thai Siriraj recommendations. While the performances of both sets of recommendations were similar in obese women, the Thai Siriraj recommendations performed better in the overweight group, In total, 56.3% of women and 34.8% of women could gain weight within the recommendations of Thai Siriraj and IOM respectively while the neonatal outcomes of both groups of women were comparable. Conclusion: Thai Siriraj recommendations for weight gain during pregnancy appear to be more suitable for our population than the U.S. IOM ones.

Objective: To compare outcomes of teenage pregnancy (maternal age younger than 20 years) with adult pregnancy (maternal age 20-34 years). Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study compared first birth teenage deliveries to adult deliveries at Buddhachinaraj Hospital from January 2012 to December 2013. Main Outcome Measurement: Maternal outcomes were anemia, hypertensive disorder, gestational diabetes mellitus, mode of delivery, and postpartum hemorrhage. Neonatal outcomes included preterm delivery, low birth weight, fetal growth restriction and birth asphyxia. Results: The prevalence of teenage pregnancy in this study was 17%. Teenage mothers had less frequent antenatal care. Rates of anemia, preterm delivery and low birth weight were significantly higher in teenage compared to adult pregnancy, whereas the rates of gestational diabetes mellitus and postpartum hemorrhage were lower. Rate of normal vaginal delivery was significantly higher in the teenage group compared to the adult pregnancies. No difference in outcome between groups was demonstrated for hypertensive disorder, infectious disorder, fetal growth restriction and birth asphyxia. Conclusion: Teenage pregnancy had preferable obstetric outcomes for the prevalence of vaginal delivery and postpartum hemorrhage, but had increased neonatal adverse events.
