uterine rupture/obesity

To describe the risk of adverse outcomes associated with uterine rupture in the setting of maternal obesity. This was a retrospective cohort analysis of singleton nonanomalous neonates born after uterine rupture between 34 and 42 weeks of gestation. We derived data from the U.S. Natality Database

OBJECTIVE To estimate the association between maternal obesity and adverse outcomes in patients without placenta previa or accreta undergoing a tertiary or higher cesarean delivery. METHODS Retrospective cohort of patients cared for by a single MFM practice undergoing a tertiary or higher cesarean

OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between overweight and severe acute maternal morbidity (SAMM) in a low-risk pregnant population. METHODS Nationwide case-control study. METHODS The Netherlands, august 2004 to august 2006. METHODS 1567 cases from initially primary care and 2994 women from

A trial of labor after prior cesarean delivery is associated with a greater perinatal risk than is elective repeated cesarean delivery without labor, although absolute risks are low. Information and counselling aim to estimate specific risks and to balance these risks according to individual

OBJECTIVE To determine how particular maternal (age>35 years, multiparity, diabetes and obesity) or fetal (breech presentation, twin pregnancy, macrosomia, prolonged pregnancy, preterm delivery) clinical conditions, potentially associated with increased risk of failed trial of labor, uterine

OBJECTIVE To determine antenatal factors that may predict successful vaginal birth after Caesarean (VBAC). METHODS The MEDLINE database was searched for all English-language articles describing the impact of various factors on outcomes when VBAC is attempted. Articles reviewed included published

OBJECTIVE What are the characteristics of the pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM) for symptomatic leiomyomata uteri? CONCLUSIONS Despite a high prevalence of women with advanced maternal age, obesity and multiple pregnancy in our cohort, the outcomes

OBJECTIVE To determine whether the California Maternal Quality Care Collaborative risk groups predicted the risk of peripartum hemorrhage and to determine which women should have peripartum pretransfusion testing performed. METHODS Over a 1-year period, 10,134 women who delivered at a single
