General Objective: To determine the frequency of COVID-19 in pregnant and postpartum women admitted with flu syndrome, to evaluate the clinical and laboratory predictors of COVID-19 progression and to identify the factors associated with adverse maternal and perinatal / neonatal outcomes in six
Group B Streptococcus (GBS), is a facultative gram positive diplococcus originally known for causing bovine mastitis and was not demonstrated to be a human pathogen until 1938 (1). In the 1970s, GBS emerged as the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, with a frequency of 2-3 cases per
This randomized-controlled trial conducted in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia aims to determine the efficacy of prophylactic IgM-Enriched IVIG in preventing EONS. A total of 70 very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates with risk factors for EONS including maternal factors of premature
Throughout this detailed description, patient and subject will be used interchangeably.
Patients presenting to either an acute care setting (Woman's Hospital Assessment Center) or outpatient clinic setting with concerns for rupture of membranes will be clinically evaluated by an obstetrician
Postpartum endometritis is an infection of the endometrial lining of the uterus clinically diagnosed by fever and uterine fundal tenderness. The most important risk factor for developing endometritis is cesarean section, as it occurs in 11% of cesarean sections after labor and 3% of elective

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of a transcervical foley catheter, in combination with the standard oral misoprostol regimen will result in a decreased primary cesarean delivery rate among women with a cervical dilation of 2 centimeters of less who require induction of
Induction of labour (IOL) is an obstetric intervention to artificially initiate labour before its spontaneous onset. It is undertaken when maternal or fetal risks of continuing pregnancy outweigh the risks of IOL. The methods of IOL include pharmacological method (prostaglandin), mechanical methods
Background: Intra-amniotic infection (IAI) or chorioamnionitis is a common condition seen in obstetrics leading to labor abnormalities such as uterine atony, postpartum bleeding and preterm labor (Schrag et al., 2006). Further adverse effects such as perinatal death, asphyxia, sepsis, pneumonia,
This is a randomized controlled trial. It will be provisionally conducted on 55 neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) of Ain Shams University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.
Inclusion criteria:
The study will include:Preterm infants (less than 37 weeks gestational age). Evidence of
A fever > 100.4 F during labor (intrapartum fever) complicates up to 14% of term deliveries, and is commonly considered a sign of intrauterine infection. Despite studies showing that most causes of maternal intrapartum fever are non-infectious, intrapartum fever often prompts the diagnosis of
This is a randomized, controlled, study of intravenous (IV) acetaminophen (OFIRMEV) versus orally administrated acetaminophen for the reduction of intrapartum maternal fever and fetal tachycardia. Compared to oral acetaminophen, intravenous acetaminophen has increased bioavailability and more rapid
Background Some maternal blood loss normally occurs at the time of vaginal delivery. The best estimates indicate that a loss of approximately 500 mL is average, with a range of about 250-700 mL.[1,2] Some of this bleeding arises from birth canal lacerations or surgical incisions (i.e., episiotomy),
Fever in labor complicates up to one-third of deliveries. The etiologies of intrapartum fever are diverse and include maternal chorioamnionitis, and other infections. In addition, epidural analgesia used for pain relief in labor is associated with mild maternal temperature increase and overt fever.
We conducted a prospective non-randomized study at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Benha University Hospital, since March 2013 till June 2015, after approval of the study protocol by the Local Ethical Committee. A written informed consent was obtained from eligible women before induction or
