Abstract
BACKGROUND: Literature data on the course of labor in women with concomitant acute intestinal infections are very scarce. Individual works and articles are devoted to the coverage of this most important final stage of pregnancy. There are no developed specific tactics of labor management in patients with acute intestinal infections, therefore obstetricians and gynecologists have to use generally accepted standards of labor management in this group of patients, without having a clear idea of the frequency and nature of clinically relevant complications in childbirth.
AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the course of labor in women with concomitant AIIs at full-term pregnancy.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined 120 patients aged 19 to 39 years, delivered in Clinical Infectious Disease Hospital named after S.P. Botkin, St. Petersburg in 2017-2019. The main group consisted of 60 women with concomitant acute intestinal infections who gave birth, and the comparison group comprised 60 conditionally healthy women. The spectrum of acute intestinal infection pathogens in pregnant women, the course of labor, complications during labor and the condition of newborns were evaluated.
RESULTS: Women of the both study groups did not differ in the duration of labor and the anhydrous interval, the frequency of birth abnormalities, the volume of blood loss, and the frequency of maternal injury and complications in the postpartum period. The frequency of premature rupture of membranes, acute and chronic fetal hypoxia, and episiotomy was higher in patients of the main group. Asphyxia in the first minute after birth was also more common in newborns from women with concomitant acute intestinal infections.
CONCLUSIONS: Acute intestinal infections may complicate the course of labor. Labor management in women with concomitant acute intestinal infections requires continuous monitoring of the condition of the fetus during labor and the provision of timely medical care to the newborn.
