[Intestinal emergencies in newborn infants].
    Der Radiologe, 1997, Volume: 37, Issue:6

    Imaging plays a major role in most neonatal gastrointestinal emergencies. The role may vary from helping to establish a diagnosis, to the evaluation of associated abnormalities, to surgical planning, or to therapy for some conditions like meconium ileus or meconium plug syndrome. Plain radiographs and ultrasound serve a primary imaging modalities with bowel contrast examinations, CT scan, and MR imaging playing roles in more complex cases.

Unexpected extensive hemorrhage from a subcapsular hematoma of the liver during emergent laparotomy in a premature neonate.
    Saudi medical journal, 2019, Volume: 40, Issue:8

    A subcapsular hematoma of the liver is often found during autopsy in stillborn infants rather than clinically. It is usually asymptomatic unless ruptured; thus, the diagnosis is often delayed or missed. Rupture of a subcapsular hematoma in a premature neonate causes massive intraabdominal hemorrhage, which is associated with high mortality. Thus, early recognition and treatment to avoid rupture are imperative. We describe a case of life-threatening hemorrhage from a subcapsular hematoma of the liver during emergent laparotomy for mechanical obstruction in an 860 g premature neonate and discuss the appropriate preoperative preparation and anesthetic management for this case.

Histopathological Changes of Placenta in Meconium Stained Liquor and Its Relevance in Fetal Distress: A Case Control Study.
    Turk patoloji dergisi, 2019, Volume: 35, Issue:2

    Meconium passage during labour is a quite common finding. Studies describing correlation between meconium stained liquor, fetal distress and specific placental pathology are sparse. This case control study had been designed to ascertain these lacunae of knowledge.. Placentae from 41 cases of otherwise uncomplicated antenatal and intranatal pregnancies with meconium stained liquor at 37 completed weeks of gestation were studied, both grossly and microscopically, comparing them with controls of 41 cases of clear liquor. Apgar score of all newborns at 1 minute and 5 minutes were recorded and correlated with histopathological findings.. Both cases and controls were found to be age matched. Meconium stained liquor was associated with more caesarian section than the clear ones. Significant correlation was found with meconium stained liquor and low Apgar scores. Histopathology of placenta revealed many statistically significant associations between specific placental histopathology in meconium stained liquor and depressed Apgar score. Evidence of placental vasculopathy rather than meconium induced placental damage came out as the potential culprit in causing a low Apgar score in this case control study.. Placental vascular changes have a role in meconium staining of liquor. If timely interventions are taken, the chance of development of fetal distress is low.

Immigrants from conflict-zone countries: an observational comparison study of obstetric outcomes in a low-risk maternity ward in Norway.
    BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2015, Aug-05, Volume: 15

    Immigrants have higher risks for some adverse obstetric outcomes. Furthermore, refugees are reported to be the most vulnerable group. This study compared obstetric outcomes between immigrant women originating from conflict-zone countries and ethnic Norwegians who gave birth in a low-risk setting.. This was a population-based study linking the Medical Birth Registry of Norway to Statistics Norway. The study included the first registered birth during the study period of women from Somalia (n = 278), Iraq (n = 166), Afghanistan (n = 71), and Kosovo (n = 67) and ethnic Norwegians (n = 6826) at Baerum Hospital from 2006-2010. Background characteristics and obstetric outcomes of each immigrant group were compared with ethnic Norwegians with respect to proportions and risks calculated by logistic regression models.. In total, 7408 women and their births were analyzed. Women from Somalia were most at risk for adverse obstetric outcomes. Compared with ethnic Norwegians, they had increased odds ratios (OR) for emergency cesarean section (OR 1.81, CI 1.17-2.80), postterm birth (OR 1.93, CI 1.29-2.90), meconium-stained liquor (OR 2.39, CI 1.76-3.25), and having a small-for-gestational-age infant (OR 3.97, CI 2.73-5.77). They had a reduced OR for having epidural analgesia (OR 0.40, CI 0.28-0.56) and a large-for-gestational-age infant (OR 0.32, CI 0.16-0.64). Women from Iraq and Afghanistan had increased risk of having a small-for-gestational-age infant with OR of 2.21 (CI 1.36-3.60) and 2.77 (CI 1.42-5.39), respectively. Iraqi women also had reduced odds ratio of having a large-for-gestational-age infant (OR 0.35, CI 0.15-0.83). Women from Kosovo did not differ from ethnic Norwegians in any of the outcomes we tested.. Even in our low-risk maternity ward, women originating from Somalia were at the greatest risk for adverse obstetric outcomes in the compared groups. We could not find the same risk among the other immigrant women, also originating from conflict-zone countries. Several factors may influence these findings, and this study suggests that immigrant women from Somalia need more targeted care during pregnancy and childbirth.

Neonatal stomas: does a separate incision avoid complications and a full laparotomy at closure?
    Pediatric surgery international, 2013, Volume: 29, Issue:3

    Enterostomy formation is a common outcome in emergency neonatal laparotomy. No consensus exists regarding optimal stoma site. This study aims to identify incidence of complications and closure details related to position of stomas.. This study is a retrospective case note review of emergency neonatal enterostomy formation over 11 years at a single institution. Patients were separated into two groups: stomas created through the laparotomy wound and stomas created through a separate incision. Demographic details, complications and closure details were ascertained. Differences between groups were analysed (Mann-Whitney test for continuous variables, Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test for categorical variables).. One hundred and thirteen stoma formations were examined in 106 patients (71 within laparotomy wound, 42 through a separate incision). Age, gestation, weight, wound-related and stoma-related complications were not significantly different between the groups. A trend towards a higher rate of full laparotomy at closure with stomas through the wound (p = 0.09) was seen. If stomas were sited adjacently, there was no difference in avoidance of full laparotomy at closure (p = 0.97).. Stomas sited adjacently within the laparotomy wound are not related to increased complications and offer the same advantage of circumexcision at closure as stomas sited through a separate wound, without an additional abdominal wound.

Predictors for caesarean delivery and neonatal admission after trial of labour in women with one previous lower segment caesarean scar.
    Singapore medical journal, 2008, Volume: 49, Issue:3

    Caesarean delivery rates are still increasing, and reliable predictors of adverse outcomes at a subsequent trial of scar are important as they guide decision-making on the best mode of delivery. We aimed to evaluate whether there are any predictors for caesarean delivery and neonatal admission, following trial of labour after one lower transverse caesarean section.. 768 women at term with singleton gestation and who had undergone a trial of labour between June 2002 and December 2005, were retrospectively identified using the labour ward register. 51 infants were admitted to a neonatal unit. Case notes for these cases were retrieved. Emergency repeat caesarean delivery and neonatal admission were the main outcome measures.. Following multivariate logistic regression analysis, no previous vaginal birth (adjusted odds-ratio [AOR] 3.4), diabetes mellitus or hypertension in pregnancy (AOR 1.7), induction of labour (AOR 2.0), oxytocin use in labour (AOR 2.4), and meconium-stained liquor (AOR 4.9) were independent predictors of emergency caesarean delivery. Diabetes mellitus or hypertension in pregnancy (AOR 3.1), prelabour rupture of membranes (AOR 4.7) and caesarean delivery (AOR 6.0) were independent predictors of neonatal admission.. Predictors for emergency caesarean delivery and neonatal admission following a trial of labour can be identified. This information should be incorporated into the counselling of women contemplating a trial of labour. The strongest predictor for neonatal admission was emergency caesarean delivery, further emphasising the need for careful case selection in a trial of labour to minimise the risk of failure.

Management of the depressed newborn.
    Clinical obstetrics and gynecology, 1984, Volume: 27, Issue:1

    The experienced obstetrician knows that depressed neonates do not always herald their coming, and that the potential liability for failure to intervene promptly is great. It is imperative that all personnel involved in the delivery and care of newborns be familiar with these principles of newborn resuscitation.
