Trial Outcomes

Number of Infants With Major Congenital Malformations (MCMs) by Earliest Trimester of Exposure to Lamotrigine Polytherapy With Valproate

The number of infants with major congenital malformations were counted and are presented by earliest trimester of exposure to lamotrigine polytherapy with valproate. (NCT01064297)
Timeframe: Although reports and diagnoses of MCMs are accepted up to six years after the birth, the majority of malformations are reported following assessments made in the delivery room or shortly after birth

Number of Infants With Major Congenital Malformations by Earliest Trimester of Exposure to Lamotrigine Monotherapy

Among lamotrigine monotherapy exposures: live births, fetal deaths, induced abortions with birth defects, and live births without defects. Due to the likelihood of inconsistent identification of birth defects among spontaneous losses, fetal deaths, and induced abortions without reported birth defects, these offspring were not included in analyses.

Birth Outcomes by Earliest Pregnancy Trimester of Exposure to Lamotrigine Monotherapy

The number of live births, fetal deaths, induced abortions, and spontaneous pregnancy losses were recorded according to the time at which women were first exposed to lamotrigine monotherapy. Due to inconsistent identification of major congenital malformations (MCMs) among spontaneous losses, no comment is made concerning the presence or absence of MCMs. (NCT01064297)
