To evaluate the balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries during a caesarean section in the group of patients with placenta accreta spectrum.

We analysed 29 pregnant women with placenta accreta spectrum. The study group consisted of 15 patients, who underwent a caesarean delivery with temporary bilateral internal iliac artery occlusion. In the control group, we examined 14 women who had a standard caesarean delivery without any radiologic procedure. We compared pre- and post-operative haemoglobin level, necessity of blood transfusion, intraoperative blood loss, intensive care requirement, complications, duration of surgery, anaesthesia and hospital stay.

The history and obstetric outcomes were similar in both groups. The study group required fewer blood transfusions than the control group (p = 0.0176). We administered less packed red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma. Complications were more frequent in the control group (p = 0.0014). Complications related to occlusion of the internal iliac arteries did not occur. The intensive care unit transfer was more frequent in the control group (p = 0.0329). The duration of surgery and hospital stay did not differ between groups. The anaesthesia time was longer in a study group, which related to the radiologic procedure.

Caesarean delivery for placenta accreta spectrum with bilateral balloon occlusion of the internal iliac arteries requires fewer transfusions. It contributes to a decrease in the complication rate and maternal morbidity.

Our study aims to evaluate the effect of bilateral prophylactic internal iliac artery ligation (IIAL) on bleeding in patients with placenta percreta who undergo cesarean hysterectomy (CH) with the use of blunt dissection technique.

This retrospective cohort study included 96 patients with placenta percreta who underwent planned CH with using the blunt dissection technique to allow better vesico-uterine dissection at the gynecology and obstetrics unit of a university hospital between the years 2017-2019. We carried out bilateral IIAL before CH in the study group (group 1) while we performed only CH in the control group (group 2).

Group 1 and Group 2 consisted of 50 and 46 patients; respectively. There was no statistical difference between the two groups as regards to the mean estimated blood loss, the mean transfused blood products, the mean operation time, and the number of complications. In total, 24 patients (25%) had complications with the finding that the most common one was bladder injury (16/96, 16,66%).

Routine bilateral prophylactic IIAL before CH in placenta percreta cases does not have a beneficial effect on decreasing the amount of bleeding and the amount blood transfusion.

Vaccination is the most effective method of controlling influenza in the human population, where pregnant women belong to a risk group that is especially vulnerable to influenza-related morbidity and mortality. The objectives of the survey were to report estimates of maternal vaccination coverage and assess reasons for the lack of influenza vaccination among Polish women of childbearing age.

The survey analysis included 564 pregnant women who had been surveyed in a self-reported questionnaire during the 2017-2018 influenza season in Warsaw, Poland.

Over 95% of Polish women of childbearing age did not vaccinate against influenza due to the low perception of risk and a lack of providing evidence-based information on vaccine by physicians and midwives. General practitioners were most often indicated as healthcare workers who educated women about influenza risk factors and recommended influenza vaccine to them.

The results of the survey suggest that women of childbearing age did not vaccinate against influenza due to the low perception of risk and a lack of providing evidence-based information by healthcare workers (including obstetrician-gynaecologists and midwives), while their recommendations appear to be a powerful method of overcoming barriers to influenza vaccination among patients.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a supervised physical exercise program on fetal well-being and intrauterine safety. Erdafitinib manufacturer Physical activity is recommended for healthy pregnant women. However, constant evaluation of fetal condition and development is recommended to ensure the safety of the exercise program.

Randomized control trial study design. Sixty-six healthy pregnant women (age 24-35) with singleton gestation were randomly assigned to either an exercise group (EG, n = 34) or a non-active control group (CG, n = 32). The exercise program included 81 sessions (moderate intensity, 3 times per week, 50-60 min/session from weeks 13 to weeks 40/41 of pregnancy). Fetal well-being was assessed in weeks 32 and 37 of pregnancy. The cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) was calculated to evaluate the safety of the exercise program for the fetus.

The differences in the CPR ratio measurements between EG and CG groups in week 37 (p < 0.05) were observed. The increase in the CPR ratio was also shown in week 37 of pregnancy in comparison to week 32 (p < 0.01). Moreover, maternal heart rate was significantly lower in the exercise group as measured at 37 weeks (p < 0.05).

The results of this study confirm that regular and supervised exercise program throughout pregnancy does not affect fetal well-being and is safe for the fetus. Additionally, regular physical activity improves maternal physical fitness and cardiac efficiency which might aid at preparing pregnant women for natural labor.
